More Than A Song

“glad tidings we bring to you and your kin….” Merry Christmas! I hope you enjoy a wonderful and blessed time with family and friends, celebrating the birth of Jesus! From my family to yours….. “We wish you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!”

I’m a bit late doing my wrap up post for the reading challenge I was doing this fall! Katrina hosted the challenge and the other wrap up posts and info are here. There were lots of participants this time. I really enjoy being a part of this one; this time I had what I thought […]

It’s been sort of a crazy week around here; lots of last minute things to do and some shopping to take care of! I still have a few things left to clean up around here and get out of the way. I might be even busier this upcoming week, whew. We have a neighbor who’s […]

“that’s what little boys are made of” Y’all are way too sweet to me about the red jumpers, I appreciate it! How could I send those to the girls and not do something for Grayson. I found a piece of flannel in my fabric pile and thought pajama pants might work for him.

“cause we’re going out tonight” The red jumpers are finished and mailed off to the little girls! I can’t wait for them to get them and I hope they love them as much as I do. 😆 Click through to the extended page to see the dresses, minus the girls.

This week will be busy for us so I probably shouldn’t try to do menus! We had at least one meal last week that I didn’t get to so if needed, it’ll be used this time. Monday…..we have a Sunday school party, I’m taking chicken tenders and maybe hash brown potato casserole (there will be […]

I’ve seen this meme floating around so I thought I’d jump in and do it too. And today is better than yesterday! Please let me know if you play so I can come see your answers. 1. Wrapping paper or gift bags? Wrapping paper, I love it! 2. Real tree or artificial? Artificial. We always […]

“You sing a sad song just to turn it around” At least I got my walking done Thursday morning, that probably helped more than I’ll ever know! Had an eye doctor appointment right afterwards that actually went pretty good too, pressure was fine and everything else was good. But then hubby’s phone went completely blank […]

I’m still here, I think I’m alive and kicking but just knee deep into everything! I’m sewing the red jumpers and finding it harder to do long distance than I thought; I worry about getting it sized to fit the girls. But I finished one today and I’m so excited, it turned out sooo cute! […]

My youngest son loves to make videos and short things for fun with his friends. Some are silly and funny, a few have been different. I like most everything he does! But I’m his mama so I might be just a wee bit prejudiced. Most recently he’s been doing them for a bible study group […]

We got most of our meals done as planned last week so no carryovers for me this time. This week could be a bit hectic so things will very likely get shifted around as I go! Monday….out to eat with friends Tuesday….monterrey chicken, smashed potatoes, peas Wednesday…church supper Thursday…..baked fish, green beans weekend….if I’ve cooked […]

Why do I get these urges to sew at Christmas time! I’ve done it for years and don’t seem to be able to stop. But here’s a peek at what’s going on and hopefully if they turn out cute, pictures later. Crazy I tell ya. Red corduroy jumpers for little girls….. We have a family […]
