Merry Xmas!

First of all, I want to wish the merriest and brightest Xmas ever to you and all your loved ones.

Isn

Like baking gingerbread....and wrapping presents..... 

 Under the watchful eye of the blowmolds....


And I was able to put the finishing touches on my 'buffet'.

I also took the time to reflect on 2016.
This was an extremely difficult year.

As many of you know my father passed in last January.
There was a lot of sorrow, tears and uncertainty.
But there was a lot of joy and laughter as well....
 I learned a lot about myself. I learned that I am very 
resilient, I might stumble but I will get back up stronger than ever.

What's planned for today?
longing in our pjs, watching tv and eating leftovers.....

Have a great day everyone!

It has been a hard year for you but you have prevailed. I'm glad to pass the 1st anniversary of my brother's death. I'm praying for a happier 2017 for us all. Hugs!
