I am beyond excited this morning ... the reason?
We have guests arriving today!
Mike's Mom Bett (Grandma) will be flying in this morning to spend a week with us. And our good friends Fred, Judy and their daughter Tanya from Florida are taking a road trip to the northeast for Christmas, so they have decided to spend the night locally and spend the day with us!
We are going to have a house full and I am ♥'n that!
Mike got up at 6:00 this morning to get a boston butt (pork roast) in the smoker for dinner. I'll add sweet potatos, green beans and broccoli bread to complete our yummy meal! I'm also going to make a Hershey Bar Pie and maybe even Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies.
We had a fun family day out shopping yesterday ... our final stop was the grocery store.
We found this amazing flowering plant while we were out ... it's a "Shooting Star Hydrangea" ... isn't it gorgeous??
Here's a closer look at the flowers ... they really do look like stars.
I better get off the computer ... I have a little bit of cleaning to do before heading to the airport to pick Bett up.
Hope you all have a happy, family filled Sunday!
Missy,God bless you and hope this Christmas is the best ever.

Busy girl you'll be. I know you are loving it. Friends and family make anytime special but especially at Christmas. I love that plant. I may have to see if I can find one local. The flowers really do look like stars. Who would have thought it was a hydrangea?
ReplyDeleteHave a fabulous time with your friends & family! Love the plant, I've never seen anything like it. Wonder if we have any of those here? I'll have to make a trip to Kroger's later and see! lol
