I want to take a moment to say Merry Christmas to all my dear readers! Â I can’t thank you enough for coming by to visit me day after day and keeping this blog going by your support and encouragement. Â I couldn’t do any of this without all of YOU out there, faithfully stopping by and I want you to know I don’t take that for granted. Â You could choose to do so much more with your time and the fact that so many of you are so faithful to read just warms my heart.
I keep goofing up on the date….I guess I’m looking forward to 2016, so your emails will say 2016. 🙂
{my family at Thanksgiving}
You can just see Lauren’s baby bump in this picture from Thanksgiving. Â She’s due the end of April and we couldn’t be more excited to welcome a new baby girl to the family. Â Yep, she’s having another girl and she is naming her Iris, after our sweet mama. Â I think that is the sweetest thing ever and we can’t wait to meet her next year!
From my family to yours, we wish you all a very Merry Christmas! Â We are spending the day together and I hope you are doing the same with your families as well. Â It’s a day to reflect on all the things we have to be thankful for and for all the meaning this season brings to our lives, celebrating the Christ’s birth and how personal that is for each of us.
I’m so grateful for another wonderful year in 2015 and so look forward to what the New Year 2016 holds!
I’ll be back on Monday to share an annual year end link party that I have been doing for many years, the Top Projects of 2015, where other bloggers will be linking up and sharing their very best projects they completed this year. It’s always a fun one, so stop back by on Monday!Â
Merry Christmas! Love the name Iris and am thinking how appropriate to name sweet baby girl after such a wonderful great grandma! Merry Christmas ! Such a blessing that that you have four generations there! Enjoy!
A very Merry Christmas to you Rohda! Yours is the first blog I ever read. I was s searching for laundry ideas in 2009 and your pretty lime green room came up. I was hooked! How wonderful another little blessing is on it’s way to your sweet family. Now THAT is the best present of all. Jane
Merry Christmas, Rhoda! Your blog is one of my favorites and I thank YOU for putting so much time and effort and professionalism into it. I wish you all the best in 2016.
Rhoda, it has been a pleasure reading your blog each morning while I watch the sun come up and sip my coffee.
You have been such a blessing to me and so many others as you graciously shared your home and family.
I have to also share that I turned my laundry room lime green too and it was such a hit that folks suggested I share it at HGTV ha. I have followed you for so many years and have told you before that you have made me feel so welcome here.
I wish you all the best and from my family to yours MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!
Lovely woman, lovely family, lovely blog. Thanks for all YOU do for US. Merry Christmas!
