Today is the 7th of December. That means it's Pearl Harbour Day, and 18 days to Christmas Day, and my grandmother's birthday.
Recently, Grams went to be with her Saviour (and mine! - so I rejoice that I will see her again soon). I was in the States to attend her memorial service, and I'd like to honour her by sharing a few photographs with you of this amazing woman.
(Naturally, I didn't take any of these, except the last one!)
She was an airline stewardess...
...a beautiful airline stewardess!!...(this is the photo she sent my grandfather while they were writing letters. Needless to say, he sent back a wedding ring.)
She was a nurse...
...the wife of another amazing person, the irrepressible Bill Mulligan...
...and an example and encouragement to me.
I am missing her today.
Mary Zalesny Mulligan - 7 December 1914 to 2 October 2009
...so since it's so beautiful...
...let it snow, let it snow, let it snow!
These last few weeks we've had more snow than we usually get at Christmas, so a few people have taken advantage of it by requesting some photo shoots! I had a brilliant time, and here are the results of our labours.
This is a family photo shoot that became very festive! We had santa hats, Christmas stockings...
...and a rogue elf.
Have yourself a merry little Christmas...okay, new year then! It still feels like Christmas to me!
