OKAY--- I'll stop although I could go on and on about my beautiful life... I've talked about some passions for life that I have, but there are many more --beginning with my love for God, my love for my awesome husband, my love for my three fantastic sons, AND many more 'loves' (gardening--especially our roses and lilies; my computer time with YOU; my love of Genealogy; and MORE)...
Hope you have a terrific week ahead.... I'm sure I'll be sharing some new pictures with you soon. God's Blessings on ALL of you.

Happy birthday! Thanks for sharing these delightful pictures.
I hope your birthday was an extra special one, Betsy, and that you had a fabulous time on your trip. Beautiful photos! I enjoyed seeing them.
A belated Happy Birthday to you!
Saw your link on Let Your Light Shine and came over to say hello. HAPPY BIRTHDAY! Love your blog, and am thinking we have a lot in common. I had OHS a little over a year ago to replace my mitral valve, and am also very grateful it's ticking the way it's supposed to. Hope you come check out my blog too. I just returned to blogland after some time away and would love to make some new friends, since most of my old ones seem to have disappeared.
Dear Betsy, happy belated birthday and what a gift you've received this year--normal rhythm. How wonderful.
Thank you for sharing the photographs of yourself. Always you were so attractive! And still are! It's the inner peace shining through. Peace.
No matter you are 3 years old, 23 years old or 77 years old...you still have that pretty smile and twinkling eyes. Hugs :)
