Happy Birthday… and giveaway

Untitled-1

… to three of the most important people in my life.

My mom.
Ken's mom.
Christ.

I love this day.  I love them so much.

Yep, my mom and Ken's mom were both born on Christmas Eve.  Between the three of them, we will be eating a lot of birthday cake. ๐Ÿ™‚

And, in honor of their birthday, how about another giveaway?  Just leave a comment here by Saturday at 11:59pmEDT with a birthday message for my mom and ken's mom.  :)  I will pick a winner of this goodness – my favorite October Afternoon stamp set…

Prize

(Oh… the winner of the punch is Grace C!  I will email you.)

And, if you are a fellow believer, here is a fun read.  I just love how it ends.  So very true.  I got it from a drive thru nativity near my house.

And, some good news.  Remember me telling you about Keegan?  He was able to come home from the hospital for Christmas.  First time home in 72 days. He isn't out of the woods, but what a blessing it will be for the holiday to be home.  Keep praying, please.  Bless his little heart.  Here he is for Christmas…

Happy 24th!  I will post again soon.

    Wow! Happy Birthday to the Moms! What a blessed family! My daughter and I started a tradition last year to bake a birthday cake for Jesus on Christmas Eve. She decided that cupcakes are way more fun this year so we made those instead. I love that she is, even at 3, starting to understand what an awesome day it is when the true meaning is remembered. Stay safe and Merry Christmas to you and your family. I know that we are strangers but you invite all of us crafters into your life and have touched as all. Thanks for that gift!

  21. Hi Jennifer, Happy birthday to your most favorite people.
    I think only in the US you can have a drive thru Nativity but the text says it all.
    My husband is home for Christmas too but they diagnose him with a rare tumor on his breastbone so he isnยดt out of the woods yet either, but he survived a tumor before so why not now. We wonยดt give up.
    Have a Merry Christmas.

    Eveline.
