I spent three hours at lunch today with four good friends. It was a great way to spend our first wintery day. I did get one more page for the journal done tonight and a couple of thank you cards, all of which will show up here in a day or two. For now here are the pages I promised yesterday.
Betsy and Skylar came to dinner. We feel so blessed to be near by and get to see her nearly every week. I have new photos to share of her as well. Journaling reads:
What a blessing Skylar Rose and Betsy are to our family! Although she’s too young this year to understand Christmas, we know what a special joy she’ll be bringing to all our holiday celebrations. She is the sweetest baby ever!
It's not often I have a page to add with the prompt about visitors, but this year my brother spent a weekend with us and we had great fun.
I extracted part of a template by Ali Edwards for this page. The journaling reads: We were delighted to discover that Colgate Rochester Divinity School was hosting a carling party and bell ringing concert today. Our street dead-ends on the CRDS property so we had an easy walk up the hill to listen to the bells and sing carols along with our neighbor, Paul, and about 300 others.
This was a fun page to do. I used one of the October Afternoon Holiday Style journaling cards to write out the list of things I still had to do. The houses are from a sticker sheet from the same line, the clouds are from Studio Calico, and the Filagree Border is one of the two new ones I just got from Papertrey Ink.
