Happy New Years! Word for 2015!

Just Be! I chose Just Be for my word for the New Year. I pondered several words this year and this one came to me over and over.
The meaning to Just Be: “It’s about the dedicated practice of felt awareness and gratitude to the present moment for the purpose of living well and in joy.”
So perfect for me! I am happy just to be right now. Just be happy, Just be thankful, Just be hopeful for the future, just be loved, respected and liked, just be who I am.
This year I turn 43 and I am at the point in my life that I rejoice in my happy, healthy life. I recognize what all God gives me, what all I have been through, and what all I have. I look forward to The New Year and what it has to offer. My hope for you is the same. Gods Blessings today, tomorrow and always. Blessings Pam

Merry Christmas!

 Wishing you all a very Merry Christmas. May you be healthy,happy, and blessed in 2015!

 My granddaughter Londyn and her step brother Tison. She adores her big brother. We went to Storybook Land and he asked if he could call me grandma? She said call her gammy. Love them.

 My daughter had this pic above blown up for me for Christmas. I love it!

My son Noah and I! I must say I sure see a resemblance in the two of us. Do you? He is a kind soul.
I am so very blessed for both my children. (not pictured is my daughter Jordan). She has the most giving soul. She reminds me of my mom in that department. We enjoyed our little family over last evening for dinner and a small gift exchange. Today they will come over later for another dinner and another gift exchange. God Bless you all. Pam

Are You Ready?

 Are you ready for Christmas. I don't think I ever am until Christmas Eve. Every year I say I will get started earlier and every year I am out the day before finishing up.

 My jolly banner was just found the other day. My 1 2 3 candle display has tipped over several times.

 I do like however what I did with my cake stand. I love the colors I picked to put in there.

 I found these cute little matchsticks on my second return to The Vintage Roost. They are going to go well with the candles I am giving as gifts. The clove box is a gift also.

 I managed to craft one evening and made a few simple cards. I saw this idea on instagram and thought I could do that. The fun part was my granddaughter and I did it together.

I want to wish you all A Merry Christmas and Happy New Year. Gods Blessings! Pam

The Vintage Roost!

I love this place so much. Each time I visit no matter what season I am blown away. It is so magical there. Gets me into the spirit. Debbie is so friendly and easy going, not pushy but inviting and always greets with such a smile.

After posting these pictures I think I may just head up there in a few. Once last time before Christmas. Blessings Pam

Instagram took over!

 Well I must say Instagram has taken over at the moment. I seem to spend most of my time there. I realize how much I miss my blog though. I vow to get back to posting daily if not weekly. Christmas is coming and I am so not ready. Life is extremely busy with some exciting things going on. I am praying for all my dreams to come true soon. Praying but know God is in control so am just relying on him at the moment. I am extremely blessed by all my family, friends, and the instagram and blogging family I have gained this past year. Had to share my instagram win of my my Londyn my saving grace necklace from eclecticorchid. She does amazing work. Check her out at www.eclecticorchid.com Blessings Pam
