A while back a friend sent me a gift and when I was thinking of what I could post today and was looking around the house, and I thought I could share a photo with you.
The very sweet box with a lovely vintage flower and tulle and some wish tickets.
Look at what my sweet friend Aleta gave me ~ the most precious pendant with a sweet girl and teddybear and the words ~ 'Best friend forever".
I was thinking about all the wonderful friends I have made through my blog and just want to say thank you for the joy and support I have had, from you all.
I truly am blessed to have, the sweetest friends ever.
Gratitude is the hearts memory
~ French Proverb
Hope that you are having a lovely week.

What wonderful gifts from your friend. I love blogging and have met some wonderful people who I now call friend :) My baby Bear is actually a Labradoodle, his mom was a standard poodle and his dad was a labrador. It is so hard to lose a pet. . .I lost my cat after 9 years and still miss him.
ReplyDeleteNo snakes where you live!! I'm going to start packing right now and move to where you live :)
