A good party has to have good music! This may not be your typical party music, but I sure do love this song!
Here are a few of my favorite things!
I love flowers and gardening. I have a very friendly black an white kitty named Dexter. I love to hear my 3 children play the kitchen pots and pans in their homemade kitchen band. I am so glad that my Mother-in-law taught me to knit nice soft hats and mittens to keep their precious little fingers and ears warm! And I will admit that I enjoy opening a present once in a while as well! Who doesn't?! :) These are a few of MY favorite things!
I have fond memories of warm summer days horseback riding with my sister for hours when we were girls. I find it so satisfying to bake sweet treats for my family. The doorbell on my house is probably the loudest doorbell known to mankind and scares the bejeebers out of me whenever anyone rings it. I love to take my kids sledding on cold snowy days. I try my hardest to cook homemade healthy meals for my family. I have a wonderful husband who hunts geese, and many other types of wild game. These are a few of MY favorite things!
I love the pretty little white flower girl dress with a blue sash hanging in my closet which my daughter wore in her Uncle Drew's wedding. I always get excited for the first snowfall of winter, and even more so now that I have my precious children to share the moment! I enjoy big snowstorms, but I am always so ready for the first warm days of spring, and the first few little flowers coloring the dreary landscape. These are a few of MY favorite things!
I have experienced my share of "dog bites and bee stings" in life, and sometimes I can become discouraged or afraid, but then I remember the blessings that God has graciously given me, and then I don't feel so bad!
I'm so glad you joined my party, and I hope to see you again soon!

It's the simple things, the most ordinary, the things we often take for granted that bring us such joy and comfort.
