I would like to wish all of you a Very Merry Christmas and a Happy, Healthy and Joyous New Year. I have a picture of the grandbabies with the man in the red suit and some pictures from my back yard with our 23" of snow that fell last weekend.
Take care-

By now you know how much Joy this little guy brings me. He's such a character! Here he is with his family of Jack-o-lanterns.

Sometimes It's Theraputic

Sometimes it's just theraputic to put myself into my art. This is how my Angel of Peace came to be. My nephew and my youngest son's best friend are both serving in dangerous places abroad. I had the pleasure of having lunch with my nephew's wife and his two beautiful daughters today. He has been on my mind constantly since his deployment a little over a month ago. This is his second time serving in a war zone. My son's best friend is also in a dangerous area. His mother gave me a bracelet to wear every day to think about him. Boy does it ever serve as a reminder to pray for both of them daily! An Angel of Peace is being offered on Ebay starting tonight and ending Sunday evening. STAY SAFE GUYS!

Pumpkin Patch Time!

I love the change of seasons but what I love more than that is pictures of my grandsons. My daughter-in-law sent me some pictures of their trip to the pumpkin patch today. Thought you might enjoy seeing a couple of them.

October Gallery Hop & GIVEAWAYS!!!!!!!

Please stop by and check this out! The gals from Prim and Whimsy are having a Gallery Hop. While you're there, be sure to sign up for some wonderful Giveaways from my fellow artists on primandwhimsy.com

Isabella & BoO

Tonight when we walked our dogs it really felt like it could be Halloween. It was crisp and cool out there and it sure seems to be getting dark awefully early. Isabella and Boo are my latest EBay Auction and last little witchie pooh of the Halloween Season for me. I've sure enjoyed making them this year.

Sweet Little Pumpkin Girl

What a week! It started with a sister-in-law having a heart attack Tuesday but thank God she is doing great! My sister came over Thursday and we spent a day going through old family pictures and sorted them out for our siblings. We always have a great time together. I've been cleaning like a mad woman, too! I always do that before changing decorations, so I have officially started decorating for Halloween, but I'm not finished. I haven't even started on the outside. I finished up this Little Pumpkin Girl and tried to get her listed before my other auction ended, but I had to stop in the middle of uploading pictures and recharge my battery in my camera. I think it may be time for a new battery. She finally got listed though. Today, we left early and spent the day with our grandsons. What a great way to end an especially busy week!

My Latest on Ebay

I've been having so much fun creating for Halloween this year. This is my latest Halloween creation. I listed it on ebay last night and it will end Friday Night. I call it Carmella & Spookers the Cat. ~ Debbie

Remembering September 11, 2001

Remembering that tragic day 8 years ago--all of the lives that were lost, the families whose lives will never be the same, and our heroic troops who give so unselfishly each day to protect our freedom. God Bless America

Has It Really Been a Whole Month Already???

Where has the time gone? Before you know it the leaves will be have not only changed colors, but will have fallen! It seems like time is flying by. This witch make-do is Sylvia's Sister Samantha. She'll be making her debut on the pfattmarketplace.com late tonight.

Ms Kitty's New Home

I wanted to share this with you. I was so thrilled when a sweet customer took the time to take a picture of Ms Kitty at her new home. She arrived during a pool party. Doesn't she look sweet lounging around the pool? Many thanks to this sweet lady for sending a picture of Ms Kitty and giving her such a nice home.

My Latest on Ebay - Jack and Licorice

Last night I listed Jack and Licorice on Ebay. I really enjoy making ride-on's and just couldn't resist making this one a pull toy for Halloween. I just might have to start my fall decorating this weekend. Making all of these Halloween creations and the little chill in the morning air has put me in the mood!

OH MY!

OH MY! It really has been a while since I listed on EBay! I was pleasantly surprised today when I scheduled my listing. I was frankly dreading the changes that could have been put into the process. You know Ebay changes things quite frequently, but it was a piece of cake! My first Halloween Treat for 2009 is officially listed!

He's Beautiful!

Isn't he! Although he was scheduled to make his grand appearence on the 21st, our 2nd Grandson was born Friday night, the 14th! He is just beautiful from his 10 little bitty toes to his beautiful sticky-up brown hair! Our hearts are swelled with joy. Elliot Michael weighed 8 lbs 5 oz and measured 21 1/4" long. Mom and baby are doing great!

Sylvia Smithwitch

This is my August offering for the pfattmarketplace.com site. She will make her appearance somewhere around midnight tomorrow night. Hope you'll check out all of the offerings from all of the talented artists on the site.

Oh how I wish I could have been there with him! Its that time of year and wanted to share a picture of my grandbaby at Virginia Beach. He had so much fun in the sun, sand and ocean.

Please Join Us on July 10th!

Happy Independence Day!

On the day that we celebrate our Independence, I want to thank all of our Hero's that have served our Country and those who are presently serving.

Happy Father's Day

This is our oldest son and his son. This picture brings back memories of when we used to take the boys fishing. On any given night, we would just throw a few fishing rods in the car and fish at one of the local ponds. I enjoy seeing our Son carry on the tradition with his son.

Happy Fathers Day to all you Dads out there!

Memorial Day 2009

Remembering America's Best for their sacrifice and service to our wonderful country. May God continue to bless those who serve our Nation.

Mothers Day 2009

This was the first Mother's Day without my Dear Mom and I sorely missed her. But I know I'm not alone in feeling like there's an emptiness in my heart. I was reminded by our Pastor that for many-- Mother's Day can be a sad day. I know there are many others who have felt a similar burden today. There are many Mother's that have lost their children. I am fortunate to still have my two sons, a wonderful daughter-in-law and an awesome grandson. There are Mothers who are worried every day about their children that are actively serving in our Military in harms way and cannot see them today or tomorrow (I know some them). There are many who want to be Mothers and cannot. There are some children who are sad because their Mom's just weren't good Moms. My Mom was a great Mom. I still don't know how she raised the 5 of us and kept such vigor! Yes, I truly miss my Dear Mom but I know some day I will see her again and that I am blessed every day because of her.
Take care-
Debbie

My husband took this picture outside the front of our house tonight. What a beautiful sunset!
