February 2026 Blog Train & Fan Freebie

I like the idea of Valentine's Day, but I don't like that it's in February.  It's usually snowing and blowing, so it's more like a "Warm Heart Cold Feet" holiday :)

I used the same colors as the kit above so that you can mix-and-match as you please.

The Boo Update --

This is Boo with his buddy.  Jake had been my favorite stable cat and then one day about 4 years ago he just disappeared.  With barn cats, it happens.  Then, a couple months later when I was walking back to the house, there he was.  Oh, he was so thin.  He started purring the minute he saw me.  So, I brought him in the house so I could get some weight on him.  Boo liked the idea of "a little brother", and he fell right into our routine, so Jake became our second  house cat.  And, I have to say, it has been good for Boo to have another cat in the house.

 Happy New Year!  After the hustle and bustle of Christmas, it's kind of nice to just kick back and do normal everyday things.  A large part of those "things" for me is taking care of all of our animals, both inside and out.  My big project this winter is cleaning out the basement.  Sort of a New Year's resolution.  That should be an adventure!

I put together a group of borders, tags and a pearl swirl to enhance your pages with the blog train kit.

Boo is happy Christmas is over and the house is getting back to normal again.  He will miss the tree though.  He likes sleeping under it.  That's the last thing that comes down. 


2026 . . . Here we come!

Except for several years of living in Southern California, I have always lived in snow country.  Playing in snow is our way of convincing ourselves that all that snow falling from the sky really isn't so terrible.  In fact, it's beautiful to look at, fun to play in, and on some days, it's a real adventure to drive in :)  And, we have a thing here called "Snow Days" where nobody goes nowhere until it stops snowing and the plows go through to clear the roads and my long driveway.

Oh, the things I do to Boo's pictures!!  I have to dress up his pictures because he certainly wouldn't let me do these things to him!  He is a joy, but sometimes his Maine Coon half comes out in him and he can be less than cooperative. 


From my family to yours, have a very Merry Christmas!

November 2025 Blog Train and Fan Freebie

Thanksgiving has become my favorite holiday because it's all about food, family and friends.  We talk all day while we're cooking, catching up on each other's lives, playing games with the kids and just simply enjoying each other's company.  It's wonderful.

As you can see . . . I REALLY like Thanksgiving and Fall in general.  I couldn't decide which turkey couple I liked the best, so I added a few more colors and made a second kit.  There are also enough colors from the blog train palette, so you can mix and match pieces to your liking.  Enjoy!

I found Boo in this position in the guest room one day, laying on the floor, but braced against the wall.  The perfect caption should read "I can't believe I ate the whole thing!!"  Life with Boo is always  an adventure!  


Happy Thanksgiving !!
