    1. Haha. Not quite. I am an early riser, kind of a night owl too. Don't require much sleep actually. Love being up early when the house is quiet…and time alone – just the best!

    1. Awww, you're sweet. xo In the picture I was laughing so hard because Dw had come and said something…and then he snapped the picture. I am so grateful for the privilege of laughter.

  1. Beautiful….warms my heart for you. It is a wonderful gift for you to spend time with family. As close as you all you must miss Emma so much.

    1. You are so right – we miss Emma soooooooooo much! We skyped with her as we got things ready for our Brunch today…She was able to talk to Tyler and Sarah and little Miss. So grateful for technology. We skyped with Autumn too. I love hearing my kids tell each other that they love each other…or like last night…one of the first things Tyler said to Emma when she Skyped us then as well, so sincerely he said, "We miss you."

    1. For the first 25 years married I mixed it compeletely by hand. However as the Multiple Sclerosis progressed and the Rheumatoid started acting up, I was given the mixer – such a blessing to my hands/arms. It has made making them so much easier. But I have been using this recipe for 35 years…and it's yummy. Will have to take the recipe apart because I've got it for a triple batch…and most don't need that many! I'll post it soon. xo

    2. Kati Mendez – It is such a small world! I have been following Linnys Blog for like 5 years! A friend sent over the link to one of her posts about MS. I was newly diagnosed and she thought I would enjoy her post. 🙂
      Linny- LOVE your blog! I never reply, but follow you DAILY!! Your family makes me smile!!! Such inspiration! Your posts always come at the right time! Would LOVE the cinnamon roll recipe as well. Looks so YUMMY!!!
      Have a blessed day Ladies 🙂

  2. I think it's such a blessing to take pleasure in the simple things in life, good food, good company, Mimi time, thank God for His simple pleasures in life that make up the bigger picture of things…. happy for you…

  3. What sweet and wonderful memories for you! Thank you for sharing them. I love those simple moments with my kids. I don't know if I will ever have grand children. As most of my children will most likely never leave home. I am longing to have littles around me once again though. You are a blessed woman indeed! God be with you.

    1. Maybe I should just put the recipe for triple batch on…I will have to take a picture of the recipe itself…cause it has been well loved for 35 years and is barely legible in parts. ha!

    1. Oh my. My hands beautiful? Your sweet words made me smile. I bite my nails. They have rheumatoid. Thank you for noticing their love-worn look and not their flaws. xo

  4. I was just sitting in a doctors office re-reading blog posts and noticed we have the same kitchen aid. Mine is red as well! Red is my favorite kitchen accent color! So funny. Good memories made with a kitchen gadget that I would not be with out! blessings!
