I feel so blessed and I do not take those blessings for granted. 
Love and joy, peace and light!
The family, the food, the smells, and fun, the memories, even the presents...make for a wonderful day!
Just a short little post filled with love and also to remind you of my giveaway with the winner to be announced on Wednesday, Dec. 28. Click HERE if you'd like to enter. Oh, and I've got to start putting up all this Christmasing! :)I'm joining A Stroll Thru Life for Tabletop Tuesday
Be a bunch of sweeties,

I'll leave you with a little Note Song ~ I think this still applies :)
My Grownup Christmas List
Do you remember me
I sat upon your knee
I wrote to you
With childhood fantasies
Well, I'm all grown up now
And still need help somehow
I'm not a child
But my heart still can dream
So here's my lifelong wish
My grown up christmas list
Not for myself
But for a world in need
No more lives torn apart
That wars would never start
And time would heal all hearts
And everyone would have a friend
And right would always win
And love would never end
This is my grown up christmas list
As children we believed
The grandest sight to see
Was something lovely
Wrapped beneath our tree
Well heaven only knows
That packages and bows
Can never heal
A hurting human soul
No more lives torn apart
That wars would never start
And time would heal all hearts
And everyone would have a friend
And right would always win
And love would never end
This is my grown up christmas list
What is this illusion called the innocence of youth
Maybe only in our blind belief can we ever find the truth
No more lives torn apart
That wars would never start
And time would heal all hearts
And everyone would have a friend
And right would always win
And love would never end, oh
This is my grown up christmas list
This is my only life long wish
