I think I stopped because I started getting Chtistmas pictures for gifts. But seeing Steves gift wrapped on the bed gave me an idea to wrap our decorative pillows with Christmas material and ribbon!

When we argue about anything our arguments usually last about a minute (not so in our younger days, LOL). Isn't it funny, how you marry this person you love, but through the years you realize that the love you felt way back then is so small compared to the love that has grown and matured through the years. I feel very blessed :)Conniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08187302890702147585noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9136180253380173794.post-15867341309917884242015-11-21T09:09:21.887-08:002015-11-21T09:09:21.887-08:00Hi Connie, thank you for all of your sweet comment...Hi Connie, thank you for all of your sweet comments.
