It's A Wonderful Life

Do you ever step back and take a look

at the lives you have touched ?

Every Christmas I love to watch  It's A Wonderful Life.

It is my favorite !

" Remember, George: No man is a failure who has friends."

I think all of us have been in George's shoes at one point or another.

We wonder where life is going...

 or have unfulfilled dreams.

At times we reach a breaking point, 

or our hearts are heavy...

we pray " show me the way !" 

Or we have those special moments,

when we really realize how MUCH we have.

                           
Nothing in our life is insignificant.

If your reading this...

chances are you have touched my life in some way.

I love that thought.

We all have a special part in each others life.

We  contribute and make a difference in the lives around us.

That's pretty awesome !

The little ordinary moments in life...
are FULL of meaning !

It is a wonderful life.

I hope that you are savoring the ordinary moments,

and you are surrounded by love and kindness,

today and always !

"Every time a bell rings an angel gets his wings "

Wishing you all a very Merry Christmas !!

XOXO

Columbia Weekend

This last weekend I grabbed the leash and the suitcase,

and raced Scotty to the car.

It was a great weekend for a road trip to Columbia !

We couldn't wait to see Brandon...and Bun ! :)

Bedlam In The Barnyard

Yesterday was another gorgeous December day !!! 

We decided to take the four wheeler to the farm,

so we could enjoy some fresh air and sunshine while checking on the herd. :) 

Hubby commented that he needed to separate the calves from the momma's.

I told him that we should go for it !

The sorting began.

There was bedlam in the barnyard.

Gary's nephew joined us.

I will confirm...

I was herding with my camera.

Separating the cows with out a camera would be ludicrous !

 I took  a random shot...

(self learning manual settings...blurry...need more practice :) )

and .... I couldn't stop. :)

Savoring mild December days and the little things

that make us closer, more trusting and loving towards one another.

The little things that make love what it is.

It's the little things that keep us together.

XOXO
