Seasons Change....

It's College Basketball Season!!!!!!!!!!!!

Change

I've been a little busy.

We are moving my father-in-law to an independent living facility

close to us. He doesn't need to live alone in a big old house almost

4 hours away any longer. He may have had a slight stroke, but

is so much better the last two days. So hopefully he will get a good

report today! I shall return!

The two in the dark blues are niece and nephew of mine. So this is

him with 4 of his grandchildren.

It's a new what?

HAPPY NEW YEAR from our house to yours!

Elf Yourself

I know you've gotten those "elf yourself" videos from your friends! If you click on the link above (title) you can see the one I did....using son, hubby, me and daughter! But most importantly, will anyone watch "It's a Wonderful Life" with me this week????

Diva Christmas 2007

Somewhere deep in the "liveable forest" is a group of friends that call themselves The Dirt Divas. It can be difficult to get a photo of them all gathered in one place at the same time. Below are two attempts...but as you can see the attempts do not show everyone. This first shot was taken by me. And yes, they are often seen wearing the official headdress. This photo was taken immediately upon their sitting and talking time...which follows their standing and talking time. This period often lasts quite awhile. As you can see they are very classy. They are having champagne with their Fritos. Below you can see that one of the Divas has escaped....lured away to another function with other people....in this case family....children home from the mission field in Argentina. But the others go on and try to enjoy themselves and a photo is captured by Nancy this time.

See the empty place at the end. How symbolic a group they are. Merry Christmas!

Good mail!

My good friend, Nathalie sent me the Moravian Star ornament above in a beautiful handmade Christmas card last week. I, of course, tried to make one, too. Mine is below. I am only showing mine so she can see it. I have the basic concept down, just needs "refining"!!!! Diva party pictures....NEXT post! I gotta get something done here.
