Bruce and Sue Bryan

This Couple! Wow!

, , , , ,

THIS COUPLE!!! I am SO blessed to have these two in my life! We have known Bruce and Sue for 18 years! They are two AMAZING individuals, who make an INCREDIBLE couple! They truly put God, their marriage, family and friends first in their lives.
 
THIS WOMAN!!! Sue gives to so many in her life: her children, her grandchildren, family, friends and strangers. She has been there with me through many tragedies and difficult times. Just last June, both Sue and Bruce blessed us with the most enchanting evening in the forest, after we lost a life-long dream and project we had been working on for 3.5 years and my friend of 28 years. Then she sent me home with these gorgeous flowers to enjoy!
 
Sue has been a friend to my mom, as she has been struggling severely with her health and living an isolated life. She went through every single piece of clothing my mom had in her closet, drawers and in boxes and helped her decide what to take to her new home at the Cantril House in Castle Rock (assisted living). That was a Godsend for me, because I dreaded that task. Sue helped sort through the bathroom things and was an incredible source of MUCH NEEDED moral support for all of us, throughout the grueling process! Last week, she visited Mom in her new place and did some shopping for her.
Sue is what a true servant of God and friend looks like! And I am so thankful for Bruce, who greets me with the most loving bear hug ever! This man’s treasured wisdom is so valuable to us and we are so thankful that he shares his BEAUTIFUL bride with us! Please keep Sue in your prayers, as she is facing some of her own physical challenges. May God bless these two for the blessings they give to others!
 
I LOVE YOU Bruce and Sue, more than words can say! I could never get through this life without you!

A Surprise Bouquet from Amazing Friends

, , , , , ,

Wowee!!! I have THE MOST AMAZING friends, Mike and Patti! They have a pretty good idea of the HORROR I have been living off and on (mostly on) for past 6 years, plus every day for the last 1.5!

I have been near death more times than I can count and under so much unfathomable, unthinkable, daily stress and crisis situations with my mom, in addition to so so many deaths, attacks on us and serious loses. I will spare the details. Please just keep my mom, Wayne and me in your prayers.

Today, a florist showed up at my door. I told him, “you must have the wrong address, because I never get flowers!” I was being serious. But I looked at the card and IT WAS for me!

Thank you, Mike and Patti for caring enough to send me the ABSOLUTELY GORGEOUS bouquet! My only wish is that we weren’t so far apart!

I love you both so much!!! 💖💖💖

“If you were a goat, where would you like to take a nap? On the hard ground or a soft, cushy bench where Mommy stores her lounge chair pads and pillows? Ya, me too! I feel like I am floating on a cloud! I am Princess Pumpkin and life is good!”

Love, Pumpkin

A Beautiful Evening with Friends

, , , ,

What a BEAUTIFUL evening for dinner with our wonderful friends, Bruce and Sue! It was a MUCH NEEDED and extra special time on their new patio in the pine trees!

Bruce had built this last Fall for a family get together and he even designed and created AMAZING hanging lights! Sue dressed the table with beautiful dishes and even had Safari napkins just for me! She is so thoughtful! She also had this gorgeous box full of daisies and got to take some home!

We felt so special and like we were at an exotic retreat having dinner in the forest with our INCREDIBLE friends!

Thank you for blessing our lives, by being in it, Bruce and Sue! We love you both to pieces! 🌼🐝🐞🦋🌼

Pumpkin and Cookie Come Inside for Christmas

, , , , , , ,

Pumpkin pulled up her chair to the window so she could  see what was going on inside.

T’was the very day of Christmas and all through the house, not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse.

But Pumpkin was cold and she wanted inside, so she pulled up her chair and gave out a cry!

“Why does that tree get to come out of the cold? You said you loved us, much more than gold!”

Mommy saw Punkie standing there weeping, as she looked out the window her heart began sinking.

OK dear Pumpkin, I’ll let you in, but only for a minute and just in the den.

So she spread out some popcorn under the tree, enough for a quick and yummy, fun treat.

The rest of the story, soon you will know. Turn on the video to see how it goes!

 

Mandy Harvey Christmas Concert

Christmas Concert with Mandy Harvey

We were so elated to celebrate Christmas and my hubby’s birthday with Mandy Harvey at Dazzle!

This was our third Christmas Concert and I am so very thankful to be able to go and have never had a problem with chemicals there (air fresheners and perfumes).

It was SO great to see Mandy and give her big hugs! I have missed her! She has really been busy after being on America’s Got Talent in 2017! As you probably know, she placed forth!

We are so very proud of her and are elated that she is able to live her dream of singing and a making a difference in this world with her message of love and perseverance!
