First Year


Today is one year since I started blogging, so happy blogday to me. I started blogging because I wanted to leave a post on an entry Finn had made on her blog last year. She had posted a cute quilt she made with Santas on it and I was wondering where I might find the pattern. Finn was the first to post on my blog in the comments. She has been a regular with her comments and always filled with much encouragment. The second post on the comments was from Nancy, she was helpful in getting me to post pictures. She also rooted for the Texas Longhorns in the National Championship game, and they beat USC. That was a sad day for me but I still hold Nancy dear in my heart and enjoy her blog and her comments she leaves on mine.

I have enjoyed this year of blogging. I like sharing what I create and it motivates me to be more productive. I have been inspired and challenged by what I have read and seen on the blogs I visit. I want to thank each and everyone of you that take the time to read and comment on this blog. I look forward to another year of growing, learning and sharing. May God continue to bless each of you in your lives and daily adventures.

The picture above is what I have been working on lately to help decorate the house for Christmas. I have been very busy and don't have much decorating done. I am off work now until Jan 2, so that means I will clean and decorate like a mad women. I am not putting a tree up this year. My family will just have to celebrate without a tree, maybe start an new tradition, one I look forward to. The tree is messy and alot of work. I might chabge my mind as grandchildren enter the picture but that is how I feel right now. I best be going and getting busy. Take care and have a blessed day.
