Christmas Bells

Today as I was cleaning the house I realized that I haven't posted a picture of my bells on my Grandmothers piano. They are placed in order of the year that I received them starting in 1998. This year I received my 11th bell. I placed them on my Grandmother-in-Law Gladyce's doilies that Grandpa Mac gave to me when he came for our wedding. A couple of years ago my Mother-in-Law gave me a Christmas bell from her past. It is the Raggedy Ann bell from 1978. Every once in awhile I find myself going up to the bells and just ringing them. The sound is truly beautiful.

My Sweet Loving Girl

This morning as I went into my daughters room to drop off some laundry I saw a new sign on her door. It brought tears to my eyes.

Happy Belated Thanksgiving!!

Hello everyone. I hope you all had a fabulous Thanksgiving. We had a great time in Hawaii. I just spent the last 3 hours on Publisher trying to put together our photo album from the trip. I am only up to Tuesday (we stayed until Sunday). I will try to update my blog later on this week with some pictures but here are a few. Love you!! (Yes..I cut my hair off a week before we went. I love it, except when it got curly because of the humidity.)
