A Time To STEAL!

Every year my friends Jenni & Jessica throw an ornament exchange party. 

These two sisters bake lots of goodies including their grandmother's sugar cookies. My hands down favorite cookie of ALL TIME! 

We get to catch up with sweet friends and have a little fun stealing ornaments from each other! 


My favorite stealing moment in action! Poor Jess!


















At the end of the night my friend Brooke pulled me aside and gave me a very special ornament.


This thoughtful gift represents my blog and my life. So I ended the night in tears. :)

It is on nights like these that I'm very grateful to have lots of wonderful friends in my life. I do not take it for granted.

  2. You continue to inspire me with your voice and your faith! I initially saw this ornament while shopping for our exchange and bought something else because I couldn't find anything to complement it. It was the only one they had. The minute I drove away from the store it hit me that I needed to give that ornament to you. It took me 2 days to get back to the store, and I was afraid it would be gone. I was thrilled to see it still hanging where I left it, because that meant you were truly meant to have it. :). I'm very glad you like it, though I certainly didn't mean for you to cry! Thank you for sharing your gift with us so freely & so powerfully! Merry Christmas friend!
