Happy Birthday!

Hello Friends!

I hope you had a Merry Christmas!  And, I wish for you a new year filled with many blessings!  

We had a wonderful Christmas even though I was sick with bronchitis a week before, but by Christmas I was feeling much better.  Also, It was a difficult month grieving with friends.  I had three friends who lost their husbands this month.  Two were expected and one was unexpected.  I am definitely ready for this month to be over and for the new year to ring in some peace and better times!

Anyways, I did receive some new Christmas craft goodies and started on the above darling vintage snowman from Honey Bee for a friend's birthday next month!  I had to place a birthday candle in his hand to help celebrate her birthday!  The background certainly looks like the one we are experiencing here today.  Yesterday, it was in the 60's and now today it is in the 20's with snow...brrrr!

I'm entering this card over at NBUS Challenge .

I'm hoping the weather will be better by tomorrow for I want to go to Hobby Lobby to spend a gift card that hubby gave me for Christmas.  Maybe hubby will take me to lunch, too!

Ok, friends!  Take care and stay warm!  Thanks so much for dropping by today!

Hugs!
