Just a few thoughts I feel worthy of jotting down!
Photos of the Day – December 26th, 27th, and 28th
We’re getting to the end of another month AND another year…..soon we’ll be ringing in 2018! WOW!
Here are my Photos of the Day for December 26-28, 2017:
DECEMBER 26
# 360 Photo Prompt – Where I Slept:
“I got up to wash my face, when I come back to bed someone’s taking my place!”
#whereislept
DECEMBER 27
# 361 Photo Prompt – Good Times:
OK, so I forgot to take a photo on the 27th……so, this is playing catch up and was actually taken on the 28th! Sorry! (not sorry)
“Late Lunch With Friends in LeRoy”
#goodtimes
The upside down tree at D and R Depot Restaurant in LeRoy, NY!
DECEMBER 28
# 362 Photo Prompt – Snack:
“YUM!”
#snack
OK, so technically it was dessert, but I knew after the meal I ate that there would be NO snacking to get a photo of!
This is the Apple Bread Pudding at D & R Depot Restaurant…..perfect finish to a great meal and amazing time with good friends…..and, a new friend!!!
OOTD:
I haven’t posted an outfit of the day in a while…….since I took this for my LuLaRoe VIP Shopping Group Page on FB, this morning, I’ll post it here, too!
LLR Leggings with a Lynnae (long sleeve t-shirt) and a Sarah (long duster-style sweater)
And, finally……after I left the restaurant, I went looking for the “Jello Barn” that my friend, Tom, told me about! I found it…..not without some drama, as I passed right by the road he told me to turn on – TWICE, but I did find it and here are the photos to prove it!!!
The first side of the barn you see as you approach it (driving south – away from LeRoy) is a Mail Pouch Tobacco barn ad……
And the other side that you see after you turn around and head back toward LeRoy is the Jello side! Super cool!

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!!!
