Sunday found me early:

We are wishing you a tinzel, tingling, terrific Sunday today!

It's December, that month where if you aren't careful you just might get wrapped up in stars, lights, and shiny things or fall over yourself with excitement!

OR should I say get wrapped up in the thoughts of the holidays?

Or wrapped up in the enthusisams or the possibilities of all those around you?

Looks like that just may have happened to Jeepers in the past, so it could happen to YOU!

  

We hold up our warriors,

Kamryn was hitting that hardwood with the NRV Elite yesterday when his knee "Popped" out! He scored close to 20 points, had the coach "slide that knee back in" OUCH and took and was back in the game. They won 2 of their three games. Way to go NRV ELITE.

And that game they lost?

It was the first game... they lost by 1 point with 12 seconds to go! 

 “I’ve missed more than 9000 shots in my career. I’ve lost almost 300 games. 26 times, I’ve been trusted to take the game winning shot and missed. I’ve failed over and over and over again in my life. And that is why I succeed.”
- Michael Jordan

  ...

The fire is burning and the sage is filling the air, with prayers going up for all who gather, all who are in the prayer bowl, with hope, love and energy of healing ways on the winds:

FOR: 

"Sign Me A" who has been fighting some serious health issues, we are sending you strength in healing,  please be gentle with you!

for Osh who has one wicked OK flu up there, we send you healing and the hope that you are resting yourself,

 EE out in CO was helped to the floor by her beloved son last night. There she sat with her 4 legged in her arms all night, her son on the floor with her and Jack as they were with him until 7am when he crossed  the Rainbow Bridge  his life here, and his work now done; he is tired and has been ill a long time.  He has been a faithful companion, a dog that has been there to soothe, to comfort and to make life a lot happier with his antics through the years.
May the Creator hold both EE and her son up as they know he now is running free and feeling great once again and thanking you for seeing him safely to the other side.
EE is scheduled for  surgery in Denver and we send you strength, hope, and all that you need to get there,

For Angie may you continue to find the strength to do what is needed up there and walk the path of goodness,

 

Billy Ray  with Yvonne right beside him; his diagnosis of Brain Cancer, yet he says "full steam ahead". Our hearts are wrapped around him as hey fight this horrible disease with the love of so many surrounding them.

 

To those who are fighting the fight,

we are fighting alongside you and thinking about you.

...

Prayers going up for Laura Roorda's dad John, who is fighting his battle of Cancer now, he is now out of that hospital and gaining strength again. Laura thanks all the warriors for their prayers here,  may he have warpaint on and build continual his strength for this battle. Please hold him and Laura's family UP.

We continue holidng you UP.

"I've learned that you can tell a lot about a person by the way he/she handles these three things: a rainy day, lost luggage, and tangled Christmas tree lights." Maya Angelou

 

I hear the chill of winter is falling in parts of our country ... the excitement of the holidays is in the air for so many while the dread of the holidays is laden like a bad wind for others; yet, there is HOPE for all if we choose it, fight for it, and want it... So I'm thinkin it's all good here...

As you dance, walk or just kick back and relax into this day, may you know that you are the excitement, the glow, the hope while you remember the blessings that surround you on this spectacular Sunday!

 

Walk in Beauty
