I've Been Counting My Blessings . . .

. . . and have been crazy busy with checking lists, shopping, making, baking, wrapping, and shipping.

Not to mention working with, and fixing some of the things that are breaking down around here . . . it's all about finding blessings in trials -

I'll post about it all soon!


(until then, enjoy these awesome photos, courtesy of Google Images . . . )


Hope you are having a wonderful week -

Cute blog and what a great family.

I see that you went to the Seattle Temple. I remember taking a charter bus from Vancouver, WA with my friend to go to the Seattle Temple open house. We were just kids riding in a bus with all elderly people. It was fun.
I was later married in the Portland Temple - love the Pacific NW!
I'll be back, thanks!
Merry Christmas!

I've been reminding myself to find the blessings... you sound like you're a bit better at it than me. But, I'm on a mission to make the scrooge in me go away and have a wonderful holiday even though most of my family will be in other towns!

Life is such a delicate balance, isn't it! :) I'm glad that you're remembering your blessings... and thanks for reminding me to do the same! You're great!

Loralee...i have got my shopping done and mailed what needs to be mailed...other than cards...I STILL need to work on my Christmas cards. I haven't even begun making cookies or candies yet though...It's one of those running behind years. I still can't believe Christmas is next week!

Almost makes me want a pet raccoon. Then I remember that they're smelly trouble-makers.

Merry Christmas!!!
