Download Day – For Unto Us

I hope you had as fabulous of a Thanksgiving weekend as we did.  In the words of my father-in-law, “It’s been the best Thanksgiving of my life.”
The Halls got a late start in the marriage and grandchildren department but have made up for lost time over the last couple of years.  So, while last Christmas [...]

Download Day – Filled With Wonder

I know, I know….I didn’t do a download last week.  Some weeks are just like that.  But it’s back today and I have had requests this week for some Christmas downloads for our holiday frame (click here for more info about our holiday frame idea).  If you’re like me, you want to get those Christmas [...]

i (heart) etsy

First, [...]

Gift of Gratitude

I always think of you as being so very balanced and sensible, such an excellent woman.
I love that quote because I like to think of myself as balanced and sensible.  If you haven’t read the book it comes from, Excellent Women by Barbara Pym, then I encourage you to pick it up.  It’s quaint, not [...]
