Granny Nanny and Santa Claus


Is Santa for real?


Granny Nanny here.  I have been a fan of Santa Claus for years.  

When my children were very young, 
I told them that Santa was the spirit of giving.  
Now I know this doesn't quite go with the story of St. Nick,
 but I liked it and they didn't seem to mind.  

Praising God that I am ALIVE and here to enjoy 
this Christmas with Family.  
It is just plain FUN to see the reactions of young children when they first see 
a life size human Santa.

Lil Miss is almost 4 years old and this year she has warmed up to Santa. 




~Lil Miss and our plastic Santa are now friends~

Lil Miss's Momma took her to see Santa at the Mall!  For real.
Granny Nanny took Gramps 
to see Santa in Wamego, Kansas at their Old School House.








Young at heart at 55.
Having fun on the Prairie.

Merry Christmas and may God Bless you,
~Deanna~

Hi Deanna,
Lil miss is so cute in her little red cape- almost as cute as her grandma!
I wish you all the joy of the season and health and happiness for you and your family in the new year.

I agree about Santa. As I told my children as they got older, the one bringing the gifts had not changed they just got older and understood it differently. You all all so beautiful and warm folks I feel so blessed to have become computer pals with you. No different than pen pals, I say. And there are pictures to boot. Blessings

DECORATING

I knew a very frugal Lady named Edith that shared with me a excellent guideline for decorating. She said with ease, "If your room has clean ceilings, floors, and walls, and the windows have nice curtains, you'll have an attractive room."



John 3:7

“Marvel not that I said unto thee,

Ye must be born again.”

King James Version (KJV)

PSALM 118:17

I shall not die,
but live, and declare
the works of the Lord.

PROVERBS 24:3-4

By wisdom
a house is built,
and through understanding

it is established;
through
knowledge

its rooms are filled with rare

and beautiful treasures.

BLOSSOM WHERE YOU ARE PLANTED
As long as I live, I will have to continually submit to God's plan for my life. You will be blessed because you turned your life over to God. Be confessing how good God is and tell Him you agree with who He says He is. BELIEVE and watch miracles happen. Be not afraid. ~Deanna

FUN FACTS FOR CHANDYS

FUN FACTS FOR CHANDYS
SELECTING THE CORRECT SIZE CHANDY TO USE IN A ROOM MADE EASY. FORMULA MEASUREMENTS: Measure the room's height and width. Add together the numbers. Example: 8' x 10' room is 8 plus 10= 18" Use a 18" wide chandy. OR Take width of room calculating 2" for every foot. Example: 15' wide room. Take 15 times 2 = 30. Room needs 30" wide chandy. Standard distance between the bottom of the chandelier to the top of the table is 30 inches. When hanging the chandelier, make sure to hang it at the proper height. The bottom of a chandelier over a dining table or kitchen island should hang 30 to 32 inches above the top of the table or island. Most rooms call for at least 7 feet of space between the bottom of the chandelier and the floor.

WISHES

NO MATTER HOW BADLY YOU WISH with all your might that the something devastating that happened in your life hadn't happened and want so badly to go back in time to prevent it from happening...it isn't humanly possible to do this. You can't change the fact that it happened. IT DID. But JESUS can change the MEANING of what happened to you and give you PEACE. He can show you the way in which you are to go. God richly BLESS you. ~Deanna
