It is time to ring in the new year and say good by to the old! This year has been an exceptional year - both with good and not so good things occurring!
I am so thankful for all of the wonderful blogging friends I have made and that have been so supportive this past year. I appreciate, more than you will ever know, all of your prayers for John and I in his illness and the early birth of our twin great-granddaughters.
You cannot imagine the love for these two tiny preemies born 2 1/2 months early. This is one of my favorite photos from their two months in the hospital.
We have been so blessed with having so much time to spend with our Laynee.
This year was our 45th wedding anniversary, my first trip to Alaska with my sister....
my dress form, Miss Begonia, being featured in Romantic Homes Magazine....
and the many friends I have made through blogging is just amazing!
Thank you all for your support and prayers. We are definitely looking forward to a great 2014!
Happy New Year!
Till next time, Judy
