It is a perfect Christmas for the two of us!  We will be breaking weather records this week with temperatures in the 80's.  No snow to build snowmen, no scarfs around our necks.  Our families are sharing their Christmas with other friends they don't get to often see.  I work during this time of year so others can visit with their families.  We have our two grand dogs visiting our three dogs and neighbors helping when we need help.  Friends over the miles like you celebrating the birth of Jesus.  Blessings & Hugs!  Pam -N- Robert

My goodness where did the month of December go?  I just had my birthday and the month is almost gone.  Christmas is almost here.  

All of God's creatures are excited for Christmas day to arrive!  

I want a hippopotamus for Christmas….only a hippopotamus will do 

Sing & dance and share that Christmas joy with everyone!  Thank you Maryline for letting me steal your graphic!  

But don't forget to share Christ and the true meaning of Christmas.  

Several years ago, I made & sent out the above for our Christmas Cards.  I don't always get the time to do that because when others want off, I like to work so they can be with family.  We are blessed to see our family during the year.  

I am so grateful that we are all part of God's flock and that we are all family.  Blessings & Hugs & lots of LOVE!  Pam  

I will not be here on a daily basis to post to you after today.  I start working tomorrow, Wednesday.  I work through Friday, January 2nd.  I will try to read, answer or send a graphic when I have time.  I have so many pretty Christmas graphics to share but my time will be very limited.  Thank you for understanding!  

Whether you celebrate Christmas Texas style in warm weather, 

or are knee deep in snow celebrating Christmas, 

remember the reason for a true Christmas is the birth of Jesus and

be a light to everyone you meet, write or talk to each day of your life.  

Middle of December and just 10 days until Christmas!  

Oh what a joyous time of the year!  I hope you feel the peace and the love all around you.  

Your tree should be up and decorated by now and presents all around it.  

If you have snow, I hope you had fun with friends and family making snowmen in your yard.  

My prayer for you and my wish for you this day and all the days to come.  

Rebecca’s Dad passed away. So I was working today and will be tomorrow. I will be working the 19th through January 2nd also.  She already had her vacation scheduled.  Please stop by when you have time during this busy End of the Year.  I will try to keep up with everything you send.  

All my love with Blessings & Hugs!  Pam

Everywhere you look there are Christmas reminders around.  

Every station has beautiful Christmas music on it.  

Houses have lights and windows with trees lit up inside.  

Everyone wishes the other person a very Merry Christmas.  

Wouldn't it be wonderful for Peace and Love every day of the year.  Blessings & Hugs!  Pam

We made it to Wednesday and half of the week is gone!  

In winter there are people who don't like the snow!  That would be me, but there are people who do like it.  

We are different for a reason.  Remember not everyone likes the same thing!  

Smiles and hugs can make everyone's day a better day!  Share with others.

Jesus loves each of us all the same and more than anything else!  

We are all part of His Family!  Blessings & Hugs!  Pam

Boy, the days are flying by!  Take time to meditate on the year and also to laugh.  

You are still here for a reason!  Sometimes we wonder just what that reason is!  

Not everything is black and white or simple to see what the ending will be.  

Love the fine print on this one... so many options to choose from.  

I have done this too many times too.  Sometimes I am asleep at 8 pm,  sometimes worry wakes me up at midnight, and sometimes I haven't been to sleep yet at 3 am.  

And some days after a deep meditation, I just have to laugh and get on with life!  You want to join me?  Blessings & Hugs!  Pam

Good Morning!  Isn't this month a special time?  A time to reflect over the past 11 months.  

I hope this puts a smile on your face all day this Monday!  'Tis the season to be jolly!  

As you put up your tree remember the real reason we are getting excited.  

We get to sing beautiful songs of the birth of our Jesus!  

A celebration of our life that is yet to come!  I can't wait until we meet in Heaven.  

Until then, I wish many Blessings & Hugs for you and your loved ones!  Pam

Fridays are always so exciting!  Even when you are retired, you know the weekend is almost here.

But we must always take time to be thankful for the small things in life.  

Everyone knows December means Christmas is almost here and it's time to celebrate the birth of Jesus our Savior.  

Kids will be watching the sky for Santa in his sled full of toys because the children are all trying to be good this month.  

December is a month to enjoy every day to celebrate each day with the friends who mean the most to you.  Blessings & Hugs & Kisses too!  

We are nearing the weekend but we have so much to be Thankful for today.  

Thanksgiving has come and gone and yet each day we add to the list.  Take some quiet time to be grateful.  

You know that there will be more pies eaten in the month of December!  Pace yourself.  

Have a wonderful time spent with friends exchanging gifts and just visiting.  Thanks for being my friend.  

Some of my long-time friends know way too much about my past.  I am thankful for the changes Jesus has made in my life.  

Gravy and Gratitude make life worth celebrating!  I hope you celebrate the entire month with Blessings & Hugs!  Pam

Middle of the week already!  Boy was it cold here yesterday morning!  Brrr!  We started at 29° but we warmed up to 50°.  

Oh and I love to read but there are times that it puts me right to sleep!

Our dogs had so much fun during Thanksgiving with people all around dropping food.  Now they can't wait for some company to come visit again.  

Laughter always makes me feel better.  I hope you enjoy it too!  

It was a great day after Thanksgiving for me too!  We beat our rival.  

Tuesday is another busy day for us.  Yes, Tacos are involved at some point today.

There is always coffee to start the day!  I hope this puts a smile on your face!  

Hopefully most of the shopping is done.  But in Texas, boots are important!  

However Jesus should be the most important of all in everyone's life.  

Then everyone would have peace and joy all over the world.

Hello Monday and Friends!  A wonderful time was had by all of us over the entire Thanksgiving weekend.  I hope you had a wonderful weekend too!  

Yesterday we said goodbye to November and today we say hello to December.  

I pray that this last month of the year will bring you lots of happiness as we celebrate the birth of Jesus.  

Oh yes, how I would like to skip winter and it be Spring already.  Our temperatures are very cold for us this time of year.  

We went from warmer than normal to colder than normal in the blink of an eye and the changing of the months.  

Goodbye to beautiful orange leaves and hello bright red packages under the Christmas tree.  I wish you lots of Blessings & Hugs for the entire month of December!  Pam

Wednesday is today and I will be working!  So I will play catch up as soon as I have a minute to visit with you.  

I hope your day is sunshine or rain, warm or cool, just the way you want it to be.  I hope it is a wonderful day doing just what you want to do today!

If you've been hiding out at the zoo, I hope you don't get caught but have a day of laughter and smiles.  

May all of your wishes for tomorrow turn out just as wonderful as today.  

Let love, happiness, kindness, grace and kisses all pass through your days.  

And may all your dreams come true!  Blessings & Hugs!  Pam
