<div>
The white snow stands for the purity of souls filled with God's grace. The circular snowballs represent, God's everlasting love.</div>
<div>
The pieces of coal used to make the eyes, mouth and buttons symbolize God's Almighty power. </div>
<div>
The carrot nose reminds us that god gives us everything we need to live and grow.</div>
<div>
The scarf suggests the warmth of God's tender care. The top hat reminds us always to keep faith our top priority. The arms are outstretched to us, as God's always are. The broom made of straw and wood signifies that Jesus was born and died to cleanse us of sin. May your heart be ever warmed by the good news of God's great love for you!</div>

It's amazing now that I think about it, that I even packed it well enough back then to ship from NY to FL, and now even back from FL to NY and a house move too and it's still all in one piece with no cracks or chips. I knew my Grandma Doris enjoyed bird watching very much so I had picked this cup especially for her. Now it's in my collection to enjoy.<br />

<span style="font-size: x-large;">On my bookshelf...just finished reading this...and it's a great series, have each one of them and started re-reading, only read about four of them and there are nine. The first few I read about 9 years ago. {Debbie Macomber's "Blossom Street Series"}</span><br />

<span style="font-size: x-large;"> I read the first two with my mother and then she went home to be with the Lord and didn't get to read the third one, which she was hoping to. My daughter also read the 1st one, so we had three generations reading which was so cool three people enjoying the same book one in her 40's, one in her 70's and one 15 year old teenager.</span><br />

At my other house I was never able to have them because the deer would eat them, no problems with deer here, woo hoo.</div>

I took many, many photographs of all my spring flowers and then did some fun things in photoshop, but I save some of those for another time. Maybe in Winter when we need a pick me up. Have a blessed weekend. </div>

I'm currently crocheting these granny square blocks, each a two color design, reminds me of a quilt block and I'm crocheting them together with black so it also looks like sashing and reminds me of an Amish look to it. Not sure how large I'm going to make this one at this point, I thought it would be a baby afghan, but now I'm thinking maybe a lap size.</div>

This will be my third style of granny square afghan's and I will spend some time deciding what border to add, because I think that always gives them just the right final finish detail and make the piece complete. Have a wonderful day, hope you are enjoying your hooking or needle making time. Michelle</div>

Here's my contribution for today, a antique black and white photo with a touch of floral color. The vase was my mother's, a gift from my father. The peonies were from my Dad, unfortunately I moved last October and they were not able to be dug up, how I will miss them and have to replant new ones. Have a wonderful day, praise God for all the beauty around us and all his wonderful gifts. Blessing, Michelle</div>

I found this pretty cut crystal basket vase at an antique barn several years ago and I just love it, it's fairly large, I also picked up a real small one too. Not much to choose from other than daffodils for blooms and a couple fillers. Tuplis should be blooming next week, can't wait.</div>

You can read all about it on their blog: <a href="https://theseasonalbouquet.wordpress.com/">https://theseasonalbouquet.wordpress.com/</a>.<br />

A photo of your own locally-grown, seasonal bouquet. Rules: <strong><em>All the ingredients in the bouquet must be sourced within 25 miles of your home, ideally including flowers you grew yourself.</em></strong><br />

Of course Erin and Jeannie's flower arranging are magnificent...something I hope to get much better at. But, all flowers are beautiful and I get enormous joy in bringing them inside to admire.<br />
<br />
I moved 29th October and when I did I dug up all my flowers and brought them to the new house and have mixed them in with what was here which was pretty nice. So it will be a surprise how everything looks together this season, I've also ordered quite a few new items to plant (dahlias, David Austin Roses, and tons of direct seeds to sow). So, I hope to share lots of garden photos on the blog in the next 7 months.<br />
<br />
For now the only thing in bloom are Daffodils, tuplips are in bud. Not sure if they will make it the same time for more variety in an arrangement. I'm hoping not to have to go buy anything and use just what I can from my small yard with lots of floral beds and more to be created.<br />

The daffodils are so bright and beautiful, love bulbs that come back every year. Especially these, low maintenance ones. I can't wait to see some of the newer ones I planted bloom, hopefully getting some very diffierent varieities of color and design to show you next time.</div>

A look at what's been going on here the last couple of weeks, a little crochet and seed sowing. This newest crochet blanke tis going to be designed with smaller squares done in two color combos, I think it resembles the amish quilt style a little bit.<br />

In the works, gowing food, for a somewhat healthier life. I've started some organic heirloom seeds, indoor sowing. Getting the titming down is a little tricky. First you sow them and each type of plant can vary on when to sow and what zone you live in, then there is transplanting them and holding them until they can go outside. This year has been more difficult with that than last year for me for various reasons. But here's where I'm at:</div>

Did you think I gave up on my God sized Dreams...I've been missing in action on the blog with these posts since January 29th....I can't beleive it! But, I do have to report that so many activities have been going on with several of my dreams. I have been working hard. </div>

These art tags I made up were so much fun, lots of creativity which I want to pursue this year and also they serve as bookmarks which I use for giving away to encourage others, this is one of my dreams to use my spiritual gift for God. I have card club this Friday and am looking forward to growing it, so far I have tive coming this week.</div>

Another dream for this year is to grow my long arm quilting business and the month of February has brought me some business from some of my previous customers. <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjlj4ukJLo1xVp52T_lY9nQ8TxfA2Du2pYlnXD4qUkZn38x06cXq3TYEnF_EbGWquAsgAr7v31L1KV3BH0QbO01uxxuj-zEEeQnV33uJBAn1y2_WTrNpsuga4n9HDxnPuUzUlJjQxZjHTs/s1600/February+2013+012.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" jsa="true" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjlj4ukJLo1xVp52T_lY9nQ8TxfA2Du2pYlnXD4qUkZn38x06cXq3TYEnF_EbGWquAsgAr7v31L1KV3BH0QbO01uxxuj-zEEeQnV33uJBAn1y2_WTrNpsuga4n9HDxnPuUzUlJjQxZjHTs/s640/February+2013+012.JPG" width="426" /></a><br />

My "book", has not been forgotten either, I've been working digilently on the computer with photoediting and organizing and things are moving along nicely. I also spend lots of time with family the month of February, both my children had birthdays, so lots of partying. My girlfriend also had a birthday, so some nice time with a friend there too.</div>

The biggest news is as I've been praying, this God sized Dream has started to happen, Lose Weight, Get Healthier. It is truly from God, this one, because I think I probably would have just kept this goal in the "going to get to starting it" position for a long time. As I've been praying for all my dreams, and me making them try to work, He just decided to show me what He wants to help me with. My good friend, emailed me about a contest for weight loss with a company she works with and encouraged me AGAIN to get in the program and get FIT. So, I read the rules, decided since I've not been feeling well, I HAVE to do this NOW, no more excuses, it really is NOW or NEVER. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
On March 1st I've started the first week of detox and am half way thru it and it really is hard work, but this time I feel like I can do it thru HIM who gives me all strength, everything is POSSIBLE. I even made three days into the "diet" wonderful deserts for Monday night bible study, I know, crazy temptation for me, addicted to sugar and carbs...guess what, I did not cheat one bit and have even a lick or bite, which is really saying something, Monday nite I took my piece of fruit while the others indulged and I did not even feel angry or sad that I couldn't indulge. BELIEVE me when I say this is really a huge deal. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
The program is 12 weeks long and did I mention there is a possbility of me winning one of the three prizes of loot, of course the top prize would be wonderful, that's a GOAL for this year too, to get financially fit also. I do admit that this is NOT EASY and it's like a small part time job to get special groceries, prepare food, journal everything, pariticpate in teleconverences, and start an exercise program, whew...on top of everything else....BUT I REALLY WANT THIS DREAM!</div>

I'm linking up with Holly, today over here: <a href="http://holleygerth.com/">http://holleygerth.com/</a><br />
<br />
So just to catch up on some of the week's I've missed that Holly challenged us to here we go:<br />
<br />
What's one thing you can decrease so you can increase you Dream?<br />
One of the struggles I have is to get away from the TV...it's so easy to sit down and rest and then you get sucked in...there's not much good on there anyway, so I'm trying to say NO and have more time to work on my dreams....that's one of the things I need to decrease.<br />
<br />
Take this “do what you can” step for your God-sized dream?<br />
This really happend to me with the Weight Loss Contest and how it all came about from SOMEDAY to PROACTIVE IMPLEMENTATION.<br />
<br />
God-sized dream story that inspires you? Well this one I'm going to have to save for another post.<br />
<br />
“A Letter to the God-sized Dreamers”<br />
Dear God Dreaming Sisters,<br />
This will be short and sweet. I'm studing the book of Colossians in small ladies group bible study-- and as Paul has encouraged them I encourage you, {don't give up, don't quit, don't get discouraged}, we need to encourage each other {we can do ALL things thru Him, He is for us, He Loves us}. That's how we each succeed and WIN the prize, how we stay on course. Go get your bible and read Chapter 1, vs. 1-12 with empasis on 9-12. Give me an AMEN, sister!<br />
<br />
<em>You’re Made for a God-sized Dream</em> - <a href="http://holleygerth.com/books-and-more/">You can get all the info about the book here. </a><br />
I pre-ordered this one and will be downloading it to my noon, can't wait to get reading this from our amazing Holly! It's a MUST.<br />
<br />

As I was pondering this, it's not so much what one thing I did, but it's what God has done, doing and will do. He's given me <span style="color: #3d85c6;">HOPE</span>. Every time I have had an obstacle, was challenged it was hope that moved me forward, kept me going. Praise God! I me really Praise God, sometimes I feel like that is all I have is Hope and you know what I think that's all I need, because with hope I have faith and with faith I have trust in all His promises to me.</div>

<span style="color: #ea9999;">Her request today was to use the minus 43 texture, I like it for this photo, I think it enhances the vintage look of my lady head vases. I grew these beautiful amaryllis before christmas and still getting blooms. The lady with the pearl necklace and ear rings was a Christmas gift to me, found it at a local antique shop and just had to add her join the other two ladies. For lots of creative inspiration stop over to Kim's today and check out all the other post. For those visiting today, new to this blog, I've decided to not post TT at rosebudquilting blog but now here at Angel Rose Cottage will be where I link up for TT. Have an awesome Tuesday.</span></div>

I'm choosing my friend Beth for my God Sized Dream Buddy. She is such a sweetheart, she is always "up", smiling, positive, supportive, encouraging, has vision, overcome obstacles herself, and most of all she is a Christian Sister. Plus we have know each other for a few years and she "knows" me, some of my obstacles and I know will make the time comittment and will be consistent. She's also working on a dream God has given her and I hope I can offer being a God SIzed Dream Buddy for her too.</div>

Celebrated my birthday and my youngest sister's birthday on Saturday, her's was actually Sunday, with my other sister and daughter. Out to lunch and some pampering in the afternoon and then played some cards on Monday night. So a wonderful weekend, with family time, the next two Saturday's I have two friends who want to take me to lunch...love going out and having some girlfriend time. Especially valuable with everyone's busy schedule. But, part of the dream is to carve out that time and balance. I've actually been accomplishing quite a bit this whole month on steps to the dreams, I've had a great month and there's still a week or so left. <br />

God Sized Dreams....I have numerous dreams/hopes and goals for 2013. I'm linking up with Holly for this series of posts for the year, it will be exciting to look back in December at the journey this year will take. I want to work on so many dreams this coming year, not sure if I have just one huge dream but many loves in the making. So here goes a list, not in any particular order:<br />
<br />
1. Creative-book-I want to get an idea I've had for 7 years created...not sure of the outcome, but creating it is the priority...whether it is published, an e-book or something printed just for me and my family, we will see. Photocards. Increase photoshop skills.<br />
<br />
2. Financial-cut flower business-I know another side business...what can I say it's another one of my passions <br />
<br />
3. Finanical-grow my card club-in reference to stamping and Stamping Up Business<br />
<br />
4. Financial-change my quilting business-from quilting for others to renting time on my machine<br />
<br />
5. Physical-get healthier-grow organic non modified seeds, preserve food, cook more, exercise <br />
<br />
6. Spirtual-use my gifts/talents to glorify God<br />
<br />
7. Social-Spend more time with family and friends.<br />
<br />
There you have it, this is what is shaping up for me. It will be varying degrees of progress and I'm ok with that, I want to enjoy the journey.<br />
<br />
