Welcome To Wordless Wednesday At Create With Joy!
Peace On Earth
In a cat’s eyes, all things belong to the cat.
Recently, I had the good fortune of winning my first Instagram giveaway from Kathy Davis – a company who I know from my scrapbooking days, but who also makes incredible products for our home.
My goodie package consisted of a stunning Christmas quilt with coordinating pillows, mugs and a delightful ornament for my tree!
I was SO excited to be blessed by this wonderful gift – I could not believe my good fortune!
I waited for the perfect moment to dress up the bedroom and soak in all of its holiday splendor.
Of course, no sooner did I get everything purr-fectly set up then in came the cat!
As anyone who lives with cats know, they have an instinct about these things. They naturally know when something extraordinary is happening in their home and they have to be at the center of the excitement!
So, Magellan – who has been eyeing the wrapped quilt ever since it arrived in my home – marches in – slowly surveys his new surroundings – and quickly surmises that this is shaping up to be his best Christmas ever!
He jumps up on the newly quilted bed and in no uncertain terms, claims it as his own.
He begins to roll around every inch of the quilt to make sure that everyone in the house knows that it is his!
Of course, in his own sweet way, Magellan – my precious cat who was given to me as a Christmas gift by my husband three years ago – has given us a gift of our own.
In the midst of his joy, he is sending picture-perfect wishes of Peace On Earth our way!
Merry Christmas and Happy Hannukah to all of you – may your holidays be merry and bright!

I’m trying to catch up with my blogging to get my mind off of things. We had to put my “Baby” (our dog) down yesterday. It explains on my Post today. I’m so sad… anyway… if I don’t speak to you … have a very Merry Christmas my friend. HUGS

Oh thank you so much my friend and yes I shall go check out Bernadette’s info. Merry Christmas to you & if you happen to know Santa I added to my Christmas list & I would like a little tea cup dog this time or just a little dog that always stays little. They’re so so cute and loving and I really need that now. All these tears I just have to stop. I miss Baby so much!!! I never missed any my pets as much as I do Baby… I’ve missed them, but Baby was definitely special. hugs
Oh & my best gift was in 1999 when my husband was out of work… well he was my boyfriend at the time & although we were living together already he said to me I don’t have money to get you a nice gift that you would want & the only thing that might be worth anything is my name. (place awwwwww here 🙂 – ) We eloped on 12-23-99 & I became Mrs. Marie Moody and I have been blessed with happiness with Dave ever since. Truly we are soulmates & he tells me everyday. The worse gift I ever got was hmmmmm…. ummmmm…. hmmmmm nope can’t say I ever got one they are all precious to me… the most precious are my handmade ones from my grandchildren & I have every single one. Especially the cards. Thank you for asking.
That quilt belongs to Magellan now!
Merry Christmas!
