Just a small note to say hello to everyone and that things are so busy here that I will be back after Christmas. I hope everyone has a beautiful Christmas with family and loved ones.

Matthew 1:18-25

18Now the birth of Jesus Christ was on this wise: When as his mother Mary was espoused to Joseph, before they came together, she was found with child of the Holy Ghost.
19Then Joseph her husband, being a just man, and not willing to make her a public example, was minded to put her away privily.
20But while he thought on these things, behold, the angel of the LORD appeared unto him in a dream, saying, Joseph, thou son of David, fear not to take unto thee Mary thy wife: for that which is conceived in her is of the Holy Ghost.
21And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name JESUS: for he shall save his people from their sins.
22Now all this was done, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken of the Lord by the prophet, saying,
23Behold, a virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son, and they shall call his name Emmanuel, which being interpreted is, God with us.
24Then Joseph being raised from sleep did as the angel of the Lord had bidden him, and took unto him his wife:
25And knew her not till she had brought forth her firstborn son: and he called his name JESUS.

Ginger,

Thank you so much for your kind words! We just love to read the comments, and leave notes on other's blogs- it has such a wonderful feeling of community...as though we are chatting and visiting with new friends!

Kijsa freehanded the wording on the walls underneath the clocks using black paint. If you want to have a little guidance, here are a few tricks you could try---Use stencils or stamps found at your local craft store to place the letters...or print out the words on your computer, and trace the outline onto the wall, then fill in with paint and brush...or find someone who cuts vinyl letters, and they can cut out the words for you for very little money-these can then be rubbed onto your wall location.

Good luck, and let us know how it goes!

Merry Christmas blessings,
kari & kijsa

Hi, Ginger, girl...just to say thanks for stopping by my site. I have been so busy, just not much time to blog. Things will slow down after the 1st, tho.
The little English Pea Salad is so easy to make and so tasty.
A can of top brand English Peas, drained.
Chunks of your favorite cheese (we like Sharp Cheddar)
Chopped onion (about 1/2 of a medium one)
Real Mayo (not salad dressing..I use HELLMANS MAYO)Use enuf to hold your peas and peanuts all together..
A cup (even more, if you'd like) of RedSkin Spanish Peanuts. (not as good unless you use these)
Salt and pepper to taste.
Pop it in the fridge and it will be ready when you are. This is also delicious on crackers...sort of like a dip.
Bye for now and MERRY CHRISTMAS...
