A Glad New Year

( God's Word and Stuff I actually think )

    
I am impressed that the sender of this old postcard (mailed for a mere one-cent) thought, some 92 years ago, to send a New Year's greeting on December 26.  I wonder if Miss Myrtle did have, indeed, "a glad New Year" in 1916?
I hope you have one!…Jeanie

Happy Anniversary, Stephanie & Tristan

( Birthdays/Anniversaries and Keep Christmas and Marriage and Mi familia and Photos of the Fam and Stuff I actually think )

 
Well, as the first to be married, you were the ones we really practiced on!  Six years ago, only 2 days after Christmas (I thought you were trying to kill me), you were married and danced your first dance - under the upside-down-white-tree-trimmed-in-crystals-and-strewn-with-thousands-of-white-lights-looking-ever-so-"giant chandelier-ish" (a similiar version hangs in The Celebration Center at Northern Hills this [...]

Good Advice

( Photos of the Fam and Stuff I actually think )

Who would give bad advice anyway?

I don't remember where this came from, but I love it:
"Enjoy the power and beauty of your youth.  Oh, nevermind.  You will not understand the power and beauty of your youth until they've faded.  But trust me, in twenty years you'll look back at photos of yourself and recall, in [...]

“Joseph,” more commonly known as “Hunter”

( Grandkids and Keep Christmas and Photos of the Fam and Stuff I actually think )

We were trying to throw some fabric remnants over the kids for a little homemade nativity scene the other day.  Hunter did NOT want to be "Joseph," Jesus' earthly father…that is until he found out Joseph is usually depicted with a staff, known by Hunter as a "stick."  We showed him the tiny Joseph from [...]

Gemma is ready for Christmas!

( Stuff I actually think )

 
Our daughter, Stephanie captured Gemma (5 months old - no, wait—-she is 6 months old-WOW!) in her usual good spirits the other day, dressed in her holiday duds.  I have this on my desktop right now because it makes me smile.
Gemma's cousin, Hunter saw it and said to his mother, "Gemma is Santa Claus!??!"
May your days [...]

My little nutcrackers

( Grandkids and Keep Christmas and Photos of the Fam and Stuff I actually think )

Gavin and Guini were watching the not-very-old-but-already-classic-Christmas-movie, "Elf," the other morning in their homemade elf hats.  Their mommy sure knows how to make me laugh right out loud!
