Many Hearts, One Family

A lovely cake designed and decorated, by her parents, for our youngest grandaughter.  SIL, Eric, is extremely gifted in all areas of art and always makes the most incredible cakes.

The birthday girl; hard to believe she was just joining us a year ago. 

Our oldest Carrie with me and our Peanut.  Snuggling is our favorite thing to do and she was cold after playing outside so what better place to warm up than in Nana's lap.

Cousins make the best of friends.

What am I supposed to do Momma?

This girl couldn't get enough cake-it was hysterical. 

On another note-I have to tell you how remarkable the internet is, despite my grumblings at times. Recently, through blog land, two old friends were able to connect again, continents apart, simply because I told one friend about a blog from her homeland.  Little did I know these gals would not only have known eachother but also were neighbors.  On a similar note,  through the internet, I was able to track down and actually call my best friend from childhood-someone I'd been looking for for the last 30 yrs.  She is currently on vacation but I'm hoping that she answers my email when she gets back home-I'd love to catch up with her.

I pray you have the most blessed day today filled with the goodness of the Lord.  I may be gone tomorrow-some friends are taking me to the mountains, for the day, for my birthday.  This is one of my favorite things to do and I can't wait-just hoping it isn't snowing so we can enjoy the outdoors.

Hugs, Noreen
