Congratulations Angela! What a perfect Christmas blessing!
My loving hubby gifted me with a Janome sewing machine!! The sewing machine I have was from my mother-in-law (who has since past) and just never seemed to stitch well (I'll keep it no matter what!)! Oh My Gosh!! I LOVE this sewing machine!! It does everything!! My children were so thoughtful and got me slippers and some cozy socks, candles and jammies (they know me well!).

My husband and I are having our 50th wedding anniversary in March, so this Christmas we gave each other one small book and a calendar. I want to build a new barn next summer.

ultimate surprise was a new-to-me cell phone complements of my brother!
He and Dad set it all up to go off in the middle of dinner. Ring tone was Madea (Tyler Perry) . The little gift bag was situated right behind my chair. I had no clue.....Amost couldn't finsh dinner I was so excited
Called the number, and it was brother!
He upgraded, and I got his cell...which BTW is an Evo 4-G. SO now Dad, brother and I are all on the same family plan...yea! (mom just has a simple trac phone....She is a technophobe and doesn't like the fancy stuff) AND this means I will be paying my brother 30.00 a month for unlimited talk, text and data... NOT a cell company. SWEET! My dad is a techie,geek anyway, so we had a fun hour in between dinner and desert going over all the bells and whistles. He gets so excited.
I'm slowly learning and have sent a few texts and made a few calls.
We get better reception on the hill out behind the house. But texting will be more than fine. Having a way to communicate while in the car (NOT moving) gives peace of mind at last too).
Can't tell you how many social engagements I have missed due to not being able to just call someone!
And a special congrats to Angela. Enjoy being a grandma and spoiling your new family addition! |

Well although a new baby is the best I was thrilled with my present. A truck load of steer manure.

Angela - I received a similar present 11 years ago on Christmas. Here is my granddaughter, Lucy, today hugging her dad (my sil). You can't top a new grandchild. Congratulations! And let the fun begin...

Angela, congrats, I will be waiting a long time for a Christmas present like that.
I was spoiled this year. I received a sewing box, a new rotary cutter, MJ needlework book, the make and freeze book I read about in one of the threads here, and lots more books, an entire shirtbox filled with fuzzy footie socks and since that means we are done wrapping I get my sewing table back so I can get sewing again.
God bless,
Judy
