Thanksgiving Thoughts

Now that the eggs are deviled and the pies are cooling, I thought I'd take some time to say how thankful Pat and I are for the many blessings in our life, which include (but are surely NOT limited to):
5 beautiful kids we are so very proud of... 7 equally beautiful grandchildren we love to death and wish we could see more of... Family and friends who we truly love and … (6 comments)

Set Your Clocks Back on November 6th, 2011!

Thanksgiving? Nope, although we're looking forward to the turkey and stuffing, the cranberry … (2 comments)

Helping a Neighbor Family in Need
The birth of a child is a magical time of celebration, sharing and love. There’s nothing in the world that can compare to holding that little bundle of joy for the first time, hearing the gurgles and cries as it greets the world, and the smiles that looking down on an angelic little face can create.
