who is very near and dear to my heart!!
MEET JUNIPER!!
Is Juniper just melting your heart already???
He sure has mine!!
This is a delightful creation of my friend and amazing artist
Michelle Palmer! I purchased this little guy last year because
it was love at first sight!!
He brings me such joy all year
through...I just can't put him in with all the other Christmas
stuff.
He's my buddy and always makes me smile no matter
what!!
Just look at that adorable little grin!
He is here to announce that we are ready to ring in the
fantastic new year full of hope and promise~~~2011!!!
Being that he is a snowman he does it with Silver Bells!! HA!
Juniper, my new little Christmas birdy, and I, all wish
you a new year filled with the JOY OF THE LORD!!
May He be your strength and your delight as you commit
your year to Him and seek to walk in His ways!!
BIG, CHILLY, {Brrrr} sunny Florida hugs and love!!!
HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!

Dear Becky,
ReplyDeleteI heard you were getting cold down there in the tropics!! We are getting cold up here in the north too! I also have a snow person that I just LOVE and I can't put her in the Christmas box either :0)!! She is a snow mama with a darling hat trimmed with red berries and she is wearing a darling knitted sweater and skirt and holding a cute snow baby and has the most lovely smile of joy!! She is also a plush snuggly snowman like yours. I found her a thrift store of all places and I think she was just meant to live in our home!!! Happy New Year Becky - wishing you rich blessings this year with the coming of a new grandbaby and having your family near!!!
Hugs,
Christine
P.S. Did you get my Facebook message?
Hi sweetie, Loved this snowman-you and I do have a thing for these guys! I also love the JOY-reminds me of you. I asked the Lord for a Word for 2011 and I got two-the first one was joy and the second one was HOPE. Wish I was there enjoying your cold weather but I'm with you in spirit. I'll talk to you soon. Love you!
ReplyDeleteHe really is a keeper! I have my Christmas snow globes out all year long. I can't part with them and just put them away in a box...what a waste! It is a good thing to keep the spirit of Christmas out all year long. Even though snowmen are not really considered Christmas....hehehe they bring smiles....here in the desert they would bring lots of smiles...LOL
ReplyDeleteOh my he is just adorable. I can see why you keep him out all the time. Happy New Year to you too sweet Becky....may 2011 be full of His love, His joy, and His peace!! Hugs to you, Debbie
ReplyDeleteLove, love, love Juniper! Maybe you could make him some cute little outfits to go with the changing seasons...
ReplyDeleteHope you have a wonderful new year! It's been great "getting to know you!" K
He is very cute! Happy New Year to you dear Becky!! I know many blessings await you this year:)
ReplyDeleteMerry Christmas dear friend!! I popped in to say hello- I'm still alive! Thanks so much for your sweet greetings on my blog even though I have been so absent lately. You are a true sweet friend, Becky!:)
ReplyDeleteOur whole gang was here for two days- Monday and Tuesday- most left last night. Tim and Brooke ( with her cute baby bump:) are still here and leave in the morning for Grand Rapids.
I had SO much fun with the grands all running around laughing and playing together this year. My heart is so full.:)
Did you enjoy your baby back home? I know you are loving it!! I'm so happy for you!!
I promise to be back more.
Love ya!

Dear Becky, YES, I too love Juniper. We have enough snow here to make a Juniper but he wouldn't be nearly as cute.
ReplyDeleteI have missed you my sweet friend and it is because I have been in Florida for a week having a very busy Christmas with our daughter Christina. We cooked, baked, set pretty tables and spent a ton of time running the roads. We were treated to a concert with Straight No Chaser. A fabulous group of ten men who sing acapella. Wonderful!!!
We are home now and engulfed in snow. A white Christmas and we were in Florida. I hope your Christmas was wonderful Becky. Sending you wishes for a happy New Year.
Love and warm hugs, Jeanne
Hello Dear Friend!
ReplyDeleteI trust you and yours had a very Merry and Bright Christmas. Knowing your joyful spirit, I'm sure you did.
I adored the note you sent me about you showing our pic. to your daughters, and sharing their comments. Too cute! And YES!!!! We are definately going to meet one of these days!
Are you on FB? If so, invite me to be your friend....I'm there. (Liesa George)
I wish you for all of God's best blessings for the New Year. You light up my life...
Love,
Liesa
Juniper is adorable, and yes, I do like the little grin! I'm just taking some time this morning to get caught up on blogs after being out of town. I hope this coming year is one of your very best yet!

Hi Becky, it is so nice to meet you... I am so glad you stopped by. I go by Becky also, mostly family calls me that as I grew up as a Becky but when I started my shop about 20 years ago, I put Rebecca on my card and now I am used to both.
ReplyDeleteWishing you a most wonderful New Year, filled with love and goodness that only the Lord can give.
Blessings
Rebecca
