Blog Friend!!!


On Friday, I had the opportunity to meet my long-time blog friend, Angela.
(Love Being a Nonny) We had the best time and we talked non-stop the whole time we were together!!! I met her at Cracker Barrel for breakfast. She and I don't live but about 30 minutes from each other, but just had never gotten together before. We both stay so busy with work and our families, but I am so glad that it finally worked out for us to meet each other.

Angela is as pretty and sweet in person, as I knew she would be. We just had so much fun being together and talking with each other. Angela has 3 grown children and 2 of the cutest little granddaughters that you have ever seen. She is expecting another grandchild real soon. If you have never read her blog, go over and say hello. She is one precious blog friend that I am so glad to have the privilege to know.

Angela and I have some other mutual blog friends and we said that it would be fun to meet them too. If you have never met any of your blog friends in person, I would highly recommend it. I have had the pleasure of meeting a lot of my blog friends.

Sorry for the delay in posting our meeting on Friday, but my computer froze up on me on Friday night, our college daughter paid us a surprise visit on Saturday and Tom and I had a reunion to go to on Saturday night. We have had such a fun weekend!!! And to top it off, I was on vacation last week and just enjoyed being here at home. It was great!

I hope everyone has a wonderful week. I can't believe that it is already November. Thanksgiving and Christmas are going to be here before we know it, but I love the holidays!! Such a festive time of the year!!

Love & blessings,
Melinda

  17. What a fun filled day! :o) I would love to meet a couple of the blogging friends I have met, and hopefully one day will be able to. :o)
    I am so glad that the little girl your daughter gave my bracelet to is really enjoying it. That touches my heart so deeply. :o) It blesses me to know the Lord used this bracelet to bring so much joy to a special little girl, many miles from here. :o)
    I hope you are having a wonderful week. :o)

  19. Hello! Please let me do know if you make Peppermint Elves, I would love to see them! On my computer, 100% was exactly the same size as mine in person. I know everyone's computer is different. I'm so sorry I don't know very much about downloading original sizes. The elves are about 6" tall with their legs! Have fun! Elizabeth

  23. Hi Melinda, So looking forward to your Christmas tags. I will sign you up for my Valentine's Day swap. Thank you so much for wanting to participate again. I just love them! I have decided to only have 3 a year to let others have the opportunity to host. I hope you are having a lovely fall day in NC! Elizabeth
