Christmas Countdown - 2014

[Christmas-A-Holic]

Morning all!! the weather got alot worse here last night, the rain became really heavy and persistant! We are quite lucky that we live at the top of a hill but alot of peoples houses flooded real bad also my old work colleagues told me the hospital ground level flooded really bad aswell. my heart goes out to the people who had to evacuate their homes last night and who will be going back to asses the damage this morning.

Also we are expected to be hit again tomorrow, more heavy rain and winds from sunday through till monday

The sun is shining today though, so going to do afew chores this morning then take the girls out and run to the shops for a few bits so I dont have to go out the next few days if its bad.

Hope this finds everyone well xx

That is scary! Stay safe!!!

I'm sorry to hear of the flooding & damage because of the storms. Keeping you, your family, and the community in my thoughts and prayers [emoji170] Stay safe, friend.

Enjoy the sunshine & time out with the girls today!

Please check in when you can, and let us know how you guys are doing.

Wayne and I only get every Saturday together that we don't have to work or let anything else gets in the way. I love every minute of it even if we sit and watch paint dry together it is a good date day with him. :lol:

Enjoy your time together this weekend!!!



That is so cool! My grandfather, on my dad's side, is from Germany but I never met him because he passed away when my dad was only 16 years old. I have relatives from there but never met them or know of anyway to contact them. My dad never met any of them either since his dad came to the USA alone. Trackrebel, being from Germany, has actually helped me and found a news article on my grandpa, it was regarding him being a champion swimmer when he was younger. It's a link from Germany and I was unable to do that search from here but she found it! It's a small step but I will keep digging for more info!

My cousin got so excited about this news article because he has been doing competitive swimming since he was real little, got a scholarship to college and has traveled the world competing. He had no idea his grandfather was a competitive swimmer too!

Enjoy your search on your family history!

That is awesome, CAH!! I love hearing stories like this, about family history.

Hope you & Wayne enjoy your special time together today!!

Good Morning, dear friends~

Happy Saturday!!!

It's going to be another hot & humid day here. Harlowe and I plan to take it easy and stay inside after our morning walk. I may get some more Harvest decorations out & try to come up with some vignette ideas. I've been reading my Fall edition of Country Sampler, and getting inspired!

And then out to dinner with Adi later tonight

Hope you all have a blessed day!

Good morning!
I'm heading out to the supermarket as soon as I finish my coffee. I have a lot of errands to run today and I want to get started early. I'm also hoping to get a lot of dorm shopping done. I'll pop back in later. I hope everyone is well and has a Happy Saturday!!!

Good morning, fun loving Christmas friends! In the absence of Crown, I'm taking on the duty of posting the Countdown today and tomorrow....while my talents and expertise won't come close to their level, I'm still going to give it a whirl...

Days to the Season: 96
Days to Christmas Day: 138

I just am in awe of the days to the season. I love it when we get to double digits, but it doesn't seem like we should be here already!

Well, teachers come back Monday, so I am in full school prep mode. Clothes to iron, food to cook, and a baby that needs to play....gonna be a great day! Make your day great, too!

Until tomorrow....

 

[ballcoach]

I just all kinds of butchered the countdown today...first, I forgot to change the numbers from yesterday and then I put down Made's name instead of Crowns as our countdown guru....


too much coffee....wait, is that possible?
