A blessed 2015 for one and all.

I need a little up lift. Christmas and right after always puts Me on edge to be real honest.I get so excited with shopping and decorating and thinking about worshipping Jesus,then the day arrives and my daughters just seem to have trouble really enjoying each other's company. I pray and pray about the day,esp. for health and My daughters being nice to each other for just maybe 5 to 6 hours is all I ask for.My Dad told Me once that His Grandmother use to tell Her adult Children and maybe  Her adult Grandchildren "Don't grieve My spirit." Sometimes I would love to say that to them but, well, I don't know I suppose I don't want to rock the boat.                                                                                              

My Loves.......little darlings.They can laugh so hard together sometimes and boy that's one of My greatest joys in life to witness.

I'll  ring in the New Year with prayer and meekness, knowing what ever He allows into My life is for My good.Meekness is a continuing process of learning and striving for each and every day.This I hope, was not a downer of a post. I just need sometimes to be true to myself. Love  Denise  A BLESSED  NEW YEAR FOR ONE AND ALL.

A Blessed Holy Christmas

From My home to Your's.......

 wishing You all.....

a blessed Christmas,full of Christmas miracles.      Love  Denise

The Christmas Search. My home and much more.

What is it Were searching  for during the Christmas season? The magic of Our Youth,Our Children's Youth? A scene from a  TV movie that brings to mind the way it should have been or wish it would have been in our own life?

Sweet and aromatic smells of holiday foods and all kinds of goodies from Our kitchens,the kitchens of Our Mom's, Grandma's and Aunties . 

The birth of Baby Jesus in the Manger? The Christmas Church service?  Well maybe a few are right on, none of them are wrong or bad,and for Me, I've experienced all of them and more.The glimmer shimmer and shine of it all.

What are We searching for?Our hearts yearn for  something we can not grasp at times. 

 The welcoming door of a home and those in it You love so ?

Gifts given and received,with a big Thank-You and a now warmer heart ? That too yes,all this does make for a warmer heart.

 Four beautiful gifts from Gail at Purple Hues and Me :) Thank You and One More big hug goes to Holly from Cutie Pie Cottage for My rag ball garland,seen on My tree.

                       My search always ends every Christmas with My eyes looking up.There are no words, smells or sites ect.. just yet, I think there will be someday on the otherside,that can describe eternity in HEAVEN. Hugs and miracle blessings to You. Denise   PS...Oh please help ladies...I forgot how to fix the white behind My words,I've tried everything and just want to publish.You can till I fooled around with the template trying to fix it.                                          

"Take a look at the 5 and 10,glistening once again......."

This has always been a song I've enjoyed each Christmas season, "It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas...."

Go ahead,"Take a look at the 5 and 10,glistening once again  :)

I have lived down the street for the last 6 Years from a Tai Pan Trading,a Marie Osmond store. I'm not sure if She is still involved with the store.Mine has down sized and cut the space of their building by it looks to Me, an 8th.

These pics are after the down size,can You imagine what it looked like before?

I still go there often, although I miss the larger space.

The store has wonderful supplies of  DIY decor. and ready made.

It's very hard at Christmas not to be joyful in this store,

 They're  located in UT,ID, CA. and I'm really hoping they're not all downsizing.            Tai Pan Trading This is not a Co. Advertisement, I just Love this store,esp. at Christmas and I have a feeling it's all over for the one in My city and I'm pretty sure it will be closing .....so go ahead take a look at the 5 and 10 glistening once again. Blessings and hugs Your way-Denise
