This week I plan on getting down to business and whipping out (or slowly going) my ornaments for my gal. I do have a little of information about her, which is fun to know!

I think White House ornaments could be a super cool thing!
I lightly in pencil drew a face on her and I don't particularly love the idea of her having a face either.

Which idea JuneBillie, the visiting or the cookies? LOL! I wish I had written down where this little guy was made. I got it off pinterest. The little doggie like this moved a couple weeks ago. Her name was Josie. She would stick her nuzzle through a hole in my fence for me to pet her. I miss her already. :~(

My ornament is on its way. Something I made up and I loved, so I hope she does too.

Oh this ornament takes me heart. We still have 3 fur babies who are our family. We terribly miss our little guy Buddy who passed away a few weeks ago. He always reminds us of Christmas, because when he was younger he went up the hill from us, and someone in that area shot him in the head. We didn't know what had happened to him, and thought we wouldn't see him again, but 2 weeks before Christmas we heard something outside, and I went out to see our little Buddy weak and thin trying to make it to us leaning against our house. I yelled for my husband. My husband took him to the vet, and the vet said he shouldn't be alive at all. He said there was all kinds of buck shot or whatever you call it all through his head. It did leave our boy blind. We couldn't make any charges, because we couldn't prove who did it. He recovered, but remained blind, but learned very well to get around everywhere. He did always have times of feeling lots of inflammation due to all of that in his head. My husband told the vet that he prayed all the time for Buddy to come back home. Well, he did!!!! So he finally became really inflamed a couple of weeks ago, and it was his time to go.

I already made him this years Christmas Ornament, and it was the first one I made. But I want to make some like that picture RedGarnet for each of our babies.

That is my Christmas Miracle Story to you girls.

To answer your question RedGarnet, both were and are good ideas. lol....

I have always said if a person would hurt a poor defenseless animal they would hurt a human. Those mean heartless people are what is wrong with the world these days. I am so sorry for your loss. Your story made me cry for the little guy who made it home.

Rwquilts, that is really cute and I am not usually a fan of pink, but I like that.
