It's my Birthday today.

Well, today it is snowing and it looks like it will be going on all day but that is okay because today is a special day for me. It is my 71st birthday today. I got flowers yesterday from my loving kids Crystal and son-in-law Brett and from hubby too. Carnations from David and a banquet of different flowers from Crystal and Brett.

Jasmine has to smell the flowers and then she will leave them alone. She loves flowers.

Here are 3 different sides of the banquet to show you all the lovely different flowers.

These are the carnations that hubby gave me. I put them in two different vases. He got me a nice chocolate cake and a lovely card.

I got a lovely parcel from June at Christmas and waited to open it today. I love the party Cats, all dressed up  for a party.

June sent me her owl, I told her how much I love him and hope she still had the chart, but she could not find it so she sent me this lovely guy. I just love him. Thanks June.

She also sent me a chart of an Indian maiden, I will show two pics, so you can see her better.

June also sent me these cute candle buttons. Ive never seen buttons that look like candles before. What a treat.

She also sent a little box that has the fixings to make a mirror with these cross stitched flowers. All you need to make this was in this little box. how wonderful.

I was over on LindaLee's  blog Lov'N My Stitches the other day and she said she has done it three times and was going to do it again. I did it once and gave it away so I told her I was going to do it too. I decided to start that day and I have done since last Sunday.

I've been working on this every night while watching TV. I know the top of the flower is wrong and I will fix it at the end of the stitching. I just want to keep going until it is finished and then go over to my friend at the Fabric Store and get some nice fabric for the back.

I forgot to show you the lovely gifts June gave me for Christmas. Allot of  little packages to stitch. she gave me the little bear and fridge magnet of Dartmoor and a ginger bread man, and Christmas napkins with Santa on them.

I forgot to tell you guys that June also sent me a Cats and Kittens calendar for 2020.

Jasmine wants to wish all her kitty and puppy friends in Blogland to have a Happy New Year.

Well, I think this blog is long enough for now. I do hope you all are having a great weekend. I have to sit down and think of where I want to go for supper. Oh, I forgot to show you guys my new winter boots from hubby. I am also getting a new wallet that is in the mail coming in next thursday. Here is a pic of the boots. I haven't had winter boots for so long because I always wore the safety shoes or rubber boots that Loretta gave me.

They are rated for -40 and are fur lined outside and inside. I will be wearing them tonight for the first time outside in the snow. I have had them on inside and they fit great. I am glad I got a size bigger than my regular shoe size because I bought them online at Walmart and I was afraid they may not fit if I got size 8 so opted for size 9. Was a good idea. The boots fit perfect.

Well, everyone have a great day, and thanks for dropping bye. Big hugs.
