Meet Our Elf on the Shelve, Firefly

Last year our Elf made her debute. Now we didn’t have littles that were waiting for her or that she was watching after for Santa. But I do have one grown husband that enjoyed her visits every day. She has been a fun addition to our holidays and we can’t wait for her to come back this year!

Here are her daily antics from 2015…

Homemade Butter

Who doesn’t love anything  homemade?

I think it brings you back to a place you would love to be.

For a wife and a mother, it says love. At least for me. I love to make my family feel good with all of the special touches I add to things, especially homemade goodness. After all, a way to a man’s heart is through his stomach or are we indeed fattening them up for the kill?? I am joking… maybe!

All in or Luke Warm?

Jesus calls us to disciple like He would. Not that we are God, but we are the World’s view of Him. Let’s face it, the world reads the Christian not the bible. So what does your version of being a Christian sound, look and act like?

Tutus and Tiaras Baby Shower

Glammy x2, that is now my life. Preparing for this little did not take the effort preparing for the first grandbaby did. I think because you see the importance of the experience instead of making everything perfect for when they arrive. But I could not let her get here without giving her a grand welcoming party. 

What Makes a Mother?

Mother’s Day is a time of the year that I can’t help but to think of the mother who birthed me. I try hard the rest of the year not to. I am the mother I am today because of the mother I had. Not because she was a great mother, because I want to be everything she was not.

What Matters Most to You?

Adults often try not to make a big deal out of their own birthdays. As we get older, it is not just another day. It often is a reminder of a year gone too quickly. Things you didn’t accomplish, your children growing too fast, loosing loved ones and even ones we loved from afar. Although we don’t know our days left her on earth, God does. He knows.

Chicken Cordon Bleu Casserole

Many know, I have started a Journey with Pampered Chef. I have been buying and using their products for 25 years. I had often wanted to join but was waiting to see how I could serve God in doing so.
