my favorite things...

Family
Each year for Christmas, my mom gets me a new Willow Tree figurine.
This year's addition is the one above, of a family of four.
And it hits the nail right on the head by saying "Family, A lifetime of love"

I just received this colorful Friends plaque in the mail, from one of the best friends I've ever had.
A true friendship is rare, and precious.
She lives completely across the country from me,
and nothing has ever kept us from being "there" for each other.
Some friendships come and go, and some friendships stay and grow.
I'm SO grateful ours has stayed, and grown...

So sweet. Those willow tree figurines are very lovely. Yay for real friends... the ones that stand the test of time AND distance. Those definitely ARE rare.
