Celebrate

Celebrating is definitely happening everywhere this time of year.  From family gatherings, to office parties, to Christmas pageants and  school concerts.   The act of celebrating is all around us.    As a family our celebrating has evolved over the years to become very simple and  the reason we celebrate has remained the constant throughout the years.  As a child our family celebrations involved large families, church choirs, and country Christmas concerts.   Many fond memories arise at the sound of certain carols, and pictures of horse drawn sleighs with christmas trees. I will always hold dear the memories of my childhood celebrating, and the comfort, peace and joy it brings.   

As you celebrate may the long lasting memories you make remain with you throughout the coming years.

REMINDERS

Reminders are good in so many ways; to meetup with that special someone, to wake up on time, to complete a task, to eat, and to not take that 4 letter word, TIME,  for granted.  To be reminded of time past, of lost time whether past or future is essential in making the best of time in order to live without regret.  In the first 3 weeks of this year I know of so many who have been reminded clearly of the preciousness of time and now the time has run out.   Making, taking and using of time for those we love and put into the places we love makes for everlasting reminders and memories we leave behind. 

LAZY DAYZ OF SUMMER

I remember as child.. the hot humid days of summer in Manitoba.  Before we had central air in the house or air conditioning in the car.  Our means of keeping cool was the furnace fan and having a kiddie pool in the back yard, and hanging a towel in the window of the car to keep the sun out.   When visiting out at my grandparents farm, my cousins and I would venture into the adjacent creek.. much to my grandfathers shegrin.. as it would stir up the mud bottom.  But it was good fun and cooled us off to boot.  

Those were the simpler times.. not too complicated and of course as a child you tended to look at things through rose colored glasses.  So glad to have those sweet memories of the Lazy Daze of Summer.  Hope you have some too.
I have borrowed this photo, as it reminds me of a cool spot on a hot summer day.. a place where I would love to be sitting and sipping Iced Tea..
