Happy Holidays

I wanted to show you the cute little card I made tonight.  Since I put up my tree I had to take down my craft table so I haven't made anything.  I have started several things before I put up my tree.




I loved the image I found on Pinterest....so cute

You know how some days you wish you could stay home under the covers?  How as soon as you open your eyes for the morning that you just want to stay home in bed?
Well I was having one of those days.  I still have not found another job and Prince Charming hasn't shown up either.  It is getting closer to Christmas and I feel so bad I have not been able to buy my boys any gifts for Christmas, not so much my older boys but my 17 year old.  He understands of course of our financial situation and he hasn't said too much but I as a mother you want to do everything you can for your children. 
Then when you least expect it you get a package in the mail and it JUST MAKES YOUR DAY!!!!
I received a very special package today from a friend and it makes you realize how wonderful your friends are and how special they make you feel.
Family is a given they just have to put up with you because you are family.  But friends they are there when they are needed,  even though you never even asked them to be.  They say the special thing to you  and at the very moment when you feel you so alone. 
I am so blessed to have my friends and also all of you my blogging friends!!!!
So thankful that I have found ya'll and grateful for all the sweet comments you leave on my blog.
Thank you so much!!!
May your Holidays be filled with love and laughter........and friends
Suzann ~xoxo~

Your card is so pretty, Suzann! Sounds like perfect timing that you received a gift from a friend when you needed it most! That is terrific! I hope that you and your family have a wonderful Christmas. Last Christmas, hubby was without a job, so I made most all of my gifts (except for him, it's hard to figure out what to make for guys!). And this year is different too, as we are 2,500 miles away from home! Have a Merry Christmas!!
