Good Gracious!

Where does the time go?
This is honestly the first time in almost 3 months I have even opened my laptop! YIKES!
I feel so neglectful of all my friends blogs as well as my own. Please forgive me.
we have had quite a bit going on here at home, I won't bore you with the mundane details, you all know how it is. Work has been a bit crazy for me this past month, but hopefully I can make it to January and then I can relax. CHRISTMAS is just around the corner again already, can you believe it and Thanksgiving being so late in the month this year is going to make the Christmas season fly by in a flash.
Ok enough with all that I have to tell y'all something very important...SHE'S HERE!!!
My Dew Drop arrived on Oct.4th after putting her amazing mama through 39 yes you read it correctly 39 hours of labor! I'll just share a few photos now, and I'll save more for later; and I promise to be by each of your blogs to catch up very soon.
The most beautiful baby!
Darby Elizabeth
My Dewdrop!
Her very exhausted, but amazing and wonderful mama
My sister Laura!
She was so tired, but honestly just glowed!
Her Daddy Patrick.
He is totally in love, can't you see it on his face.
Me and my baby Dew!
Wrapped around Aunt Jenny's finger already!
Love! Love! Love!

    Oh my goodness Ethel, I thought the momma looked like you! It makes sense now! I think that baby is absolutely adorable. Just love her! She is lucky to be born into your family, you will be such an amazing auntie to her! It's unfortunate we all are slacking off on our blogging, but real life takes priority, right? I hope you are hanging in there. I think of you often, and continue to send prayers your way. Thank you for thinking of me and for the wonderful thoughts and prayers and support! Love you!!!!!! Lucy

Woolzies!

Hey Y'all! Sorry to have been away so long again. I won't go into details, but it has been a bit of an adventure here. I think  things are settling down (fingers crossed) So how are ya? I have another give away for ya! A few weeks ago I was given the opportunity to try and review a box of Woolzies Dryer Balls. Here is a bit about Woolzies from their website Photo from their Facebook page  Woolzies are pure handmade New Zealand wool dryer balls that soften your laundry naturally without any of the chemicals of conventional fabric softeners.

They also help reduce static and wrinkles.

Merry Christmas Y'all. Yes I say Merry Christmas! I keep Christ in  Christmas because it matters to me. I was at a craft show recently and at one of the booth's I wished the vendor a Merry Christmas, he said Thank You and then said "I don't say anything anymore, you never know what people believe and I don't want to offend anyone" OK I get that, he is a businessman....however;  I replied...."I say Merry Christmas because it is what I believe" he said huh... I have never thought of it that way before... I work for the "worlds largest retailer" and I say Merry Christmas all season long, In all of the 23 years I have worked in retail, no one has ever said "don't say that to me" actually most people are kind of surprised to hear it if I judge by the look on their faces and most reply Merry Christmas to you too. So try it on for size, the next time you are out, wish the people in your path a Merry Christmas, I bet it will make...
