It looks so magical.<br /><br />After reading your FFF, Susanne, I just put chai tea and "read a chapter in book"on the grocery and to-do today lists.<br /><br />Hurray for phones, getting caught up with the kiddos is a blessing indeed.<br /><br />Have a great week, Susanne.<br />Susanhttp://fruitfulwords.wordpress.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28854403.post-70934876343675967902015-12-11T08:28:08.316-07:002015-12-11T08:28:08.316-07:00things are sparkling nicely at your place.

One wasn't here at Thanksgiving, but thankfully they all plan to be here for Christmas - this year. :-) Who knows what will happen next time - it gets harder as they get older.<br /><br />Your dinner with friends sounds lovely.<br /><br />So glad the interview went well!Barbara H.http://barbarah.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28854403.post-38711712498170476442015-12-11T06:51:02.013-07:002015-12-11T06:51:02.013-07:00Don't worry too much about being too busy to k...Don't worry too much about being too busy to keep up with blogs, Susanne -- these Fives are anchors in our lives to look back each week, especially packed ones!<br /><br />Food and laughter with good friends are the best, aren't they?? How lovely your tree looks and so cozy in its place of honor. So glad you can connect with your kiddos. nikkipolanihttp://nikkipolani.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28854403.post-22945325619073708432015-12-11T06:46:23.444-07:002015-12-11T06:46:23.444-07:00december and June are so darn busy around here and...december and June are so darn busy around here and I too havent blogged lately but I plan on being more intentional once Xmas gets here. your tree looks beautiful...i love the reflection too! <br /><br />embrace every moment of the season and enjoy the weekend!,Faithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06608258814596465122noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28854403.post-46102995004708408302015-12-11T05:56:52.922-07:002015-12-11T05:56:52.922-07:00Love your tree Susanne!

Still have many in the home to prepare for. I love hearing from our grown daughter. She calls me almost every day on her way home from work. Mostly so I don't worry that she didn't get mugged getting to her car!<br />Hope you have a blessed weekend!Monicahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17659675759066363838noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28854403.post-11896097982543926332015-12-11T05:44:00.050-07:002015-12-11T05:44:00.050-07:00Parties and phone calls can sure brighten a day.

Sitting quietly by the tree or enjoying a few candles is restful and necessary.<br />Those conversations with adult children who no longer live nearby are precious. I'm thankful for texts and phone calls!Willowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02912030095491960175noreply@blogger.com
