  14. Congrats to you Donna!!!!

    Girl, I knew I'd be all jealous when I'd come over here to visit...you have some great stuff going on! First on the list...you're going to have fun with Rebecca!!! Jealous!!! :)))
    And Christmas Open House is always soooo fun! I love the spirit that Christmas season brings.

    Plus, I've scrolled down and tried to catch up but kept getting more and more lost in your beautiful posts of marshmallows and the Fall leaves are gorgeous! We don't have a season change like that down South. The colors are gorgeous!!!!

    oh...
    I knew it...I'm already mind blown with all the beauty here!!!!
    Please tell Rebecca hello for me...I've been a bad BAD blogger friend in visiting everyone lately, but I'm always thinking of you all!!!!
    HAVE FUN!!!!!
