My Christmas Angel




So, this Christmas is a little differnt as the ones in the past. Because of the move and boxes being everywhere half of my decorations are somewhere out in the garage but I'm so thankful that I was able to find my beautiful Christmas Angel. This is a very specail Angel as there isn't another like it in the whole world. My Granny Mo made this beautiful Angel. My grandmother has this amazing talent to picture something before she even made it. I often wonder what she was thinking as she sanded down she beautiful glass body, as she painted her face to bring her to life! Grandmother turned sewing into an art and I'm always still amazed at the details she put into all of her projects.
Granny has been gone for just over a year and I'm so thankful that this beautiful Angel will always be a part of my Holiday decorations. I can't wait for my boys to be a little older so they know what a presous gift she made for me.
I love and miss you, Granny Mo!!

It is so pretty. It is funny thing things that remind us of our loved ones. Today, I received Frangos -- something Grandma always had around the holidays. Then, we were talking about wrapping packages versus using holiday bags and it made me remember Grandpa and how he always had a bag for his gift to us.
