Where I live the weather has decided to become very cold. We are experiencing temperatures that are barely reaching the mid-teens during the day & dropping below 0 at night. Don't get me wrong, I absolutely love the snow, but I also like the temperature to stay around 20-25 degrees. While thinking about such cold (although for some, I know it probably sounds very mild), I decided to search for photos of firesides that would at least help me imagine that I was warm. I found somely lovely images. The one below caught my eye as it looked like such a loving family.
I just love this one. It reminds me of my German shepherd, Majesty & one of my former cat friends, Spitfire, who unfortunately died last year. They always seemed to get along well.
I then found this painting by Henry Salem Hubbell, which I think is beautiful, & along with it I found two others (although not really about firesides, they do look very warm & inviting). I especially love the colors he used.
We are supposed to be having a snowstorm coming in soon, but I am praying against it, as we have our Easter play auditions coming up this Saturday & we don't need another cancellation. I hope everyone is having a wonderful & blessed January. I thank God for giving us what we have that we so often take for granted, our salvation.
God bless,
Sarah
Hi Sarah
ReplyDeleteI was just wondering if the Emma DVD has arrived yet? Did it reach you in time for Christmas?
~Elise
Elise, yes I did receive the Emma DVD. I am sorry that I did not let you know sooner, I have just been swamped since Christmas. Actually it arrived the Christmas Eve, but my brother put it aside & forgot about it till three days after Christmas. When I finally did get to watch it, I really enjoyed it. I am not sure which version I like best though, the one I received from you or the Gwenyth Paltrow version. But I would like to thank you again for choosing me as the for the giveaway.
