IT'S A

MIRACLE....

A PERSONAL STORY BY DANA...

As many of you have known my daughter has been in jail with an ICE hold because she is a Canadian Citizen and had some previous charges against her...which has placed her in custody for the past 10 months. My Sister who is an attorney however is not involved in Criminal Law or even immigration law stepped in to represent her and take on a legal battle which would give anyone heartburn or a heart attack! She has been working on all the legal issues day and night and yesterday with the help of the higher power and my sister and her persistence my daughter Erica was released...
When she walked through the doors in the jail the emotion was overwhelming...
We had no idea this would happen so quickly and that she would be home for the holidays... we have been blesssed with a Judge who has reviewed and followed this case and by some Miracle with everything just right signed the paperwork to release her....
The embrace of my daughter who has been an inmate for over a year total and her Aunt who has saved her life with her family here in the UNITED STATES....
My Granddaughter wrote a letter to Santa
and said all she wanted was her mom to be home for CHRISTMAS....
she can't believe it...
NEVER GIVE UP....
NEVER LOSE HOPE...


The time we spend with family is so precious...



NOTHING ELSE COULD BE BETTER

So my Thanksgiving Message to all of you

my dear friends....

Never lose hope and remember to

hang on to your faith and hope....

Cherish you family and show

love and kindness always....

As I run around like a Chicken with it's head cut off

and the kids are screaming,the milk is spilt, the phone is ringing, and the doorbell is going off, the kids are running and screaming, the kitchen timer is going off.... the potatoes are boiling over.....SIGH!!!!

LIFE IS GOOD

I LOVE MY CHILDREN...

they love me...

I LOVE MY HUSBAND...

he loves me....

AND I ADORE MY 9 GRANDKIDS...

and my sis.....

WELL I JUST CAN'T TELL YOU HOW I FEEL...

How do you express your love for someone who saves your child?

HAPPY THANKSGIVING

and eat up....

LIFE IS GOOD!

FALL FESTIVAL FUN

Lazy Daisy Hot Pads

or Children's Placemat

These have been a favorite here at the Cottage!

We share the idea of making these pot holders

in children's or fun focus prints

then having the little ones

use as a placemat for hot foods!

This photo shows the pot holder

before you turn right side out

be sure to clip corners

to help with bulk in keeping corners sharp!

Mixed Blessings

This is a fun idea
for your Thanksgiving Dinner table favors.

Each is filled with the items listed below.
Wrap in celophane bags and tie with ribbons and bows,
place card on each with the Thanksgiving message attached.

If you would like to stop by and pick up a card with the message attached
so you can make your favors, we have a sample ready for you to pick up
and make copies for your guests.

A Mix of Blessings

BUGLES: Each is shaped as a Conucopia or Horn of Plenty to remind us of our ancestors and our heritage and that our lives are filled with blessings.
PRETZELS: They represent our arms folded in prayer to give thanks.
CANDY CORN: A lesson on Frugality. During the first winter the pilgrims were each allotted only 5 kernels of corn per day because the food was so scarce. The next year was a bounty as ours can be.
DRIED FRUIT: Thanksgiving is the celebration of the harvest from the field and trees. Preserve harvest for times of need and share.
NUTS & SEEDS: Seeds represent future hope and promise, the potential of a bounteous harvest for the next season if they are planted and well tended.
THE MIX: We are each given a unique combination of blessings. Give thanks and enjoy them!!

HAPPY THANKSGIVING

A MERRY CHRISTMAS

What is your favorite holiday movie?

How the GRINCH stole Christmas...

of course!!

Do you like big family gatherings or do you prefer a small dinner followed by hot chocolate by the fire?

Do the math --

with grandparents,

aunts and uncles,

cousins, three children,

and 9 grandchildren,

it is sometimes difficult

to settle in with hot chocolate

by the fire

with just the hubby and me!

SOUNDS NICE... SIGHHHHH!

OUR EMPLOYEE "E"

We call him "E" although his name is "ELI"

he works after school cutting and assembling kits....

Being mulit-talented with sports and spending time with family makes him a well rounded kid.
A weekend with Grandkids means
cooking and cleaning
may as well teach them young....



Daisy still supervising the shop...

And DB stitching his first quilt...

Rachelle here at the cottage said if he is going to be the number 1 salesman he better try making a quilt....SO he did...
