A special card for you this Christmas – this year I decided to do an electronic one. It was a BIG decision for me for I love designing and making cards, going through my Christmas list, addressing the envelopes ~ even bringing them to the Post Office. I was disappointed until I started to make this … it was so much fun. I hope you like it.
And, of course, I am including a recipe as always (at bottom of page). I think you’ll really enjoy this one. I tried it out and it was SOOOO easy and delicious.
I was hoping to see you before you went back home in September but it just didn’t work. Darn! Hopefully next time. Now here it is – Christmas already. Karen, no matter how near or far apart, I want you to know that there is a special place in my heart that I hold just for you. I love you dearly!
I am in Gander with David for Christmas. Awfully quiet here yet! The children are with their mother this morning but will be here after lunch. I can’t wait! I’ll be staying until Boxing Day and will then head home to Sandy Point. I’m guessing you, Dale and Emily will be getting together with Keith and his family at some point over the holidays. ENJOY! Here’s to a wonderful Christmas! Love and hugs
Merry Christmas
Karen, Dale and Emily
I wish you a Christmas
filled with
Hugs, Laughter, Smiles and Warmth
And, may the coming year
bring you
blessings beyond measure.
