Celebrate the Small Things

Thank You Vikki at Scribblings of an Aspiring Author. C'mon join in the fun!

We had a houseful of guests for a surprise birthday party for my son. And...

This past week was loaded with Floridian's!! My extended family came for a Northern visit. My niece had a blast playing in the snow, and I loved her rosy cheeks and giggling squeals of delight!
That picture was taken before it snowed 20 more inches!

What are you Celebrating?

  8. Happy Birthday to your son. Glad you are enjoying this holiday season. I'm celebrating a climate where snow is not allowed (at least for now).

  9. I'm celebrating the fact that our weather is cold and there is snow on the ground, but the roads are clear.

  12. LOL I am not a winter person, so if I were your Florida family, I would have invited you down for a visit. Glad you all had fun :)

    1. Rhonda, it was 85 in Florida the day they arrived in 20 degree weather, hehe...

      Lexa, It hasn't stopped snowing since. I believe we're past the 2 feet stage.

  14. Aw, what fun! :D

    But...twenty inches of snow? Whoa! (I've never experienced snow before, so that sounds like a lot to me, haha.)

  15. Here's to having a blast in the snow! I'm celebrating: 1.) living at the beach in California, 2.) finding out my tooth does not have to be pulled--it's a sinus infection!, and 3.) having my YA horror story, Death House, get accepted for publishing (woo hoo!), as well as having my short story, "Christmas After All" released in an anthology called A Touch of Winter. Happy Holidays!
