Whimsy 365: Day 48
It’s here! Happy Thanksgiving to you all! My wish for you is that your are surrounded by love, family, friends and countless blessings.
In all the chaos of the day, take a moment to give all the glory to God. He’s the reason to be thankful.
Blessings,

Whimsy 365: Day 47
Today is the busiest day of the year for me. I am decorating tables, cleaning (some more), baking pies, making Hello Dollies, deviled eggs, stuffing, boiling sweet potatoes and more. I get as much done today as possible so tomorrow I can enjoy the day more. I can almost smell the turkey! Love this time of year and love this holiday where our house is filled to the brim with family.
Hope your preparations are going smoothly!

This is me tomorrow! lol
Blessings,

Oh, if only everyone on the planet would put love first. Imagine a world with only love and no hate. I guess that is what heaven is for but we can still pray, hope and do our part to make love take hold in this world.

Whimsy 365: Day 45
Happy Monday! We got dumped on this past weekend…about 15″ of snow and it’s snowing right now as well! That’s a lot of snow for our first accumulative snowfall. I’d rather ease into it with a few inches at a time.
Sooo, the snowman lovefest continues. I love this guy and I see him coming to life in full color in the near future.

Whimsy 365: Day 44
This sketch is how I feel about our children. As much as I love watching them grow into amazing young adults, I often find myself daydreaming of when they were little. I loved when they were small enough to scoop up in my arms and dance around the room. Sweet, sweet memories.

I like the content lil’ smirk on his face as if he just ate his favorite meal and is ready for an afternoon nap. Winter is the best time for comfort food….roast beef, potatoes & carrots, meatloaf and garlic mashed potatoes with green bean casserole or roasted chicken, smashed potatoes, squash and corn. Hungry yet?

I am in LOVE with this guy….color will definitely be added to him! As you can tell, I enjoy sketching snowmen. After sketching and painting them for the past 20 years, I struggle to find new looks for Mr Frost. Once in a while, one strikes my fancy as this guy has done.
Happy Friday y’all! Enjoy your weekend.
Blessings,

Whimsy 365: Day 41
We’ve had unseasonably warm weather for November here in Michigan. In the 60s….I’m lovin’ it and certainly could get use to it.
However, I know what lies ahead and, to be honest, I do love a white Christmas. I just wish winter wasn’t soooooo loooooong. Oh well, I’ve lived in Michigan my entire life, so I will just suck it up like I do every year. Or as they say, “put your big girl panties on and deal with it!”
Hope you’re having a mild November where you live.
Blessings,
Teresa

This was a fun sketch combining Santa with my lil’ characters. I think I could sketch Christmas images every day as they are so much fun to create!

Whimsy 365: Day 39
Can you tell I’m getting in the Christmas spirit? I am in Thanksgiving mode as far as planning and decorating because we host dinner for around 30 people every year but the commercials, advertising and store displays are hard to avoid this time of year so Christmas is on my mind.
I must admit, however, Santa was giving me fits!! I sketched and re-sketched him so many times until I finally liked what I saw. (let’s just say Santa had a face lift!)
Enjoy your Tuesday!
Blessings,
Teresa
