Linky Party 12

Hello again and welcome to our

 HAPPY HOUR LINKY PARTY 12 

Well this has certainly been a busy couple of weeks at our home.  It was such an honour to be part of the Jennifer Rizzo house walk.  I am so humbled by all of the sweet messages and so thankful to have been given the opportunity to participate. 

Prior to the house walk, I shared an easy way to 'cheat' a frame chalkboard and finally revealed our new/old white tree.  I had been hinting at the tree for almost a month, but couldn't reveal until the house walk.  

I also had some exciting news, announcing I had become the newest contributor to the FOLK magazine website.  As with the tree, I had to wait until the appropriate time to share the news.  I am so very excited and honoured to join the 'cast' and hope you will visit me there on Saturday when I reveal my Christmas mantel. 

On the home front, I'm happy to say my schedule is slowly beginning to open up again.  This weekend we will be celebrating my parent's 40th anniversary.  I am so proud of them.  My siblings and I could not have asked for a better couple to show us what a Godly marriage looks like.  We are truly blessed to have them as parents as they have taken care of us through every success and failure in our lives, made sacrifices and have shown us unconditional love.  I am so blessed.

Today I would like to do things a little differently by publicly letting you all know how fortunate I feel to be able to share this little stage with Jaime and Taryn.  They have not only become my blog partners but also become a part of my daily life.  We talk and share each other's news just like 'real' friends.  We are there for one another and have truly seen past the distance that separates us.  I don't have to state the obvious about their beautiful style and talent, so today I'm just going to let their pictures do the talking.
