Love and appreciate the meaning behind them even here in the States. ;) <br /><br />Sounds like a wonderful school time break and some fun family time - always a bit of heaven! <br /><br />I know what you mean about the hubby vs crafting thing. Lol They get football or other hobby - we get crafting, what's so hard to understand, right? I'm sure your hubby will be thrilled with your new creation! <br /><br />Great job not giving up hope - those kinds of roots can run deep. :)<br />Blessings. xocarrie@northwoods scrapbookhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16337824046780952876noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8348050486280502480.post-4788967575634406882015-10-31T23:03:52.933+00:002015-10-31T23:03:52.933+00:00What a gorgeous tree shot - would look nice on a c...What a gorgeous tree shot - would look nice on a canvas.<br /><br />I think the most important thing about remembrance day is showing your respect and keeping the memory alive, so you wear your poppy and be proud, it's lovely!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02814844278942160057noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8348050486280502480.post-80265778339513100022015-10-31T15:24:31.692+00:002015-10-31T15:24:31.692+00:00So many wonderful things in this post!
