Rush-Hour Recipe Cookbook winner, and Grammie And Poppa Snowman Camp!.


Hello Precious Sweet Ladies,

Good Morning...........it is going to be a busy day..........10 adorable, precious cutie grandchildren will be descending on the farm all throughout the day!!!!!!!!!!!! Now think of this....10 pillows..... 10 sleeping bags...plus a blanket....ten toothbrushes, 8 deodorant bars, coats.....hats.....socks.... sweatshirts.....boots and shoes....now that sounds like fun!!!!!!! It will be for them. They can't wait, nor can their Grammie and Poppa. I have started asking the parents to bring snacks........it is impossible for me to keep them fed between meals. The water they go through is unbelievable!!!!!!!! They burn off so many calories as they work hard on their fort. I will try to get some pic's. 


This came in the mail last week........a gift for the snowman party!
Thank you Karla!!!!!!!The grands will love!!!!!!!! So precious to think of us!


Okay.......now I am sure you are ready to hear who won the antique biscuit bowl, bread cloth and Gooseberry Patch Rush-Hour Recipes Cookbook!!!!!!! This is a wonderful cookbook........full of fasty meals........I know that is not a word.....but it fits! If you want to pre-order it you can go here  They also have an e-book download available here

And the winner is............
Kimmy

she won on her second try!!!! Her must for CHRISTmas
baking was OREO Balls.........okay Kimmy.......we 
want the recipe!!!!!!!! 



Thank you to all who signed up. We had 218 entries! Yahoo, you are such precious woman! 

Still stitching away!!!!!!! I am so excited to show you all!


Oh, when I went shopping one of you prayed I would find some good deals!!!!!! I did!!!! I can squeeze more out of money then anyone! I am a very picky lady when it comes to shopping. I found some fun things, will be fun to wear them! 

Here is a few pic's.


I got a pair of flannel pj's (keeps me warm in my breezy little farmhouse!), new slippers, 2 sweaters, a really cute feminine zip up vest  (I can put a scarf with), 4 long sleeve tee's and I still have money to spend. I think the Lord blessed me don't you....... and I had soooooo much fun. I am not much of a shopper.....when you don't have it to spend....you don't. This was Gift money and that is when I will spend it!!!!!!! The girls were so cute and helpful with me! They also did some shopping, so we had some fun times making memories! They are wise little shoppers.

One more thing.....some ladies have not received their tea bags and cards. I do know that there has been some sickness, so that might be the case. If you have not received it, please let me know and I will check on things for you!!!!!! 

God bless you and I am still stitching as fast as my little hands can go!!!!!!! I can't wait to show!!!! The kids will be outside a lot so I will have some time today I am sure! 

Hugs to your day........mine will be full of HUGSSSS!!!!!!!!!

Linda
