My favorite things . . .

 

 

A few of the things in life that make my heart go pitter pat. Maybe they will do the same thing for yours. ♥♥♥    I'm pretty sure however, that these things mainly make my own heart sing.

But most of all  . . .  spending time with family.  I am really enjoying my brother's visit. Yesterday I went to my sister's for supper. We had oven fried chicken, mac and cheese, roasted brussels sprouts, my butter swim biscuits and my brother had bought an ice cream cake for dessert.

Today I am taking a drive up to Halifax with my brother to take my niece to her friends who she will be staying with until next week. My sister has to work.  It will be nice to keep my brother company on the drive. Time spent with family is the best thing of all. 

Mister McGregor turned 90 yesterday. He had visitors in and out all day and there were lots of pretty balloons on his veranda and bushes.  I think he had a good day. I could hear him talking on the phone as well and it rang a lot. 90 is a great milestone. I wonder will my dad make it to 90. He is 88 now. I sure hope so!

A thought to carry with you  . . .
