Like many of you, Linda of Parker's Paradise and I are blogging buddies. Linda suggested a swap with me a while back, let me share with you what she sent me.....
A box full of goodies
I mentioned that I love the "let it snow" small framed stitchery on the far right. She send me four framed pieces and a terrific pillow. The pillow's quote really hit home for me when I opened the box - love it!
"Our family is a circle of Strength and Love"
Linda, I really hope your package has arrived, last time I checked the delivery confirmation # it was still showing as sitting in our town post office - so much for Priority Mail!
For my birthday my family surprised me with tickets to see Trans Siberian Orchestra last night. All I can say is WOW! What a fantastic show and great music.
All three of our kids are in orchestra at our school. (Yes we are very lucky to have a wonderful orchestra program in our school system - and we are a little town!) We have 2 violins and 1 bass in the house. All three were enthralled with the performances.
If you are a fan of TSO and have never been - GO! You will never regret it. I'm ready to drive to Dayton Ohio to see them again tonight!
Don't forget to leave me a comment on the previous blog post for your chance to win one of my baskets and a snowman I made.

ReplyDeleteLinda sent you some really nice pressies! It will be fun to see Linda's post when she gets yours.
ReplyDeleteIt's great that your small town is still supporting arts; so many schools are cutting music and arts programs these days to meet their budgets and it's just so sad.
Hugs,

Oh wow, I didn't know they had TSO in Ohio. That's cool. My daughter is into that musical stuff and singing. She would love this. I'm glad you had a great time Ann :o)
