Let the season begin……

A dear friend made this beautiful wreath for me and surprised me with it yesterday!

My second year for wreath making class through the Cornell Cooperative Extension Master Gardeners

Much better than last year’s! If you saw last year’s post, you may remember that my first attempt at wreath making wasn’t “bad”, but it was way too bulky, lopsided, and awkward…..but a decent first try! I showed restraint and did a MUCH better job this year……I love it!!!

My crafty friends and I with our creations!

On Sunday, I attended the annual “An Albion Family Christmas” concert at the Presbyterian Church…..it is a fundraiser for the Albion High School Alumni Foundation and the concert I look forward to every year! All local talent performing holiday music and readings…..just wonderful!!!




The bell choir from my church – the Albion First United Methodist Church Joyful Good Shepherd Ringers – was one of the performers……they did an awesome job!!!
