CHRISTMAS DREAMS REALLY DO COME TRUE!!

My little brother got his Christmas wish all thanks to many sweet angels! A few of his classmates from High School decided to try and make Tim’s Christmas wish of taking his entire family (eight children plus a quazzi adopted son and his cute wife, Liz) to DISNEYLAND!! They did it! Here is Tim receiving the secret fed ex package from
Santa Claus. Tim is completely overhwelmed by the generosity and love and is brought to tears.I called the local Fire Department in their area and asked them if they would help deliver a surprise to my brother who has stage 4 colon cancer and they said they would love to help me out. They even had the Santa outfit and a Santa to help with this big surprise! By looking at his boys faces looking at their dad you can tell how touching this moment was.
That is a real beard by the way! “Yes, Virginia there is a Santa Claus”

Here is the whole gang along with my cute mom and her hubby.

Tim, Liz and Mom

Here is the whole family including the cute Firemen who helped make this surprise come to life.
THIS HAS TAUGHT ME HOW MUCH LOVE AND KINDNESS THERE IS IN THE WORLD TODAY. PEOPLE REALLY DO CARE AND LOVE ONE ANOTHER AND WILL SACRIFICE MUCH TO BRING GREAT JOY AND HAPPINESS TO OTHERS. MUCH LOVE TO ALL THOSE AT CDMHS ALUMNI! AND THANK YOU TO ALL OF YOU WHO DONATED ON TIM’S BEHALF HERE ON MY BLOG.
MERRY CHRISTMAS TO EVERYONE

Karins Kottage

Welcome to Karins Kottage! There is always something fun going on! You would think after becoming an empty nester couple that our nest would be very quiet and empty but our Kottage nest is usually more full than what we started out with! You might find me hosting a birthday party or graduation party and a baby shower on the same weekend or a big outdoor get together with 25 of our friends and family in the backyard or maybe I might be in the kitchen trying out a new recipe for my hubby and I to grill on the BBQ for a quiet night for the two of us. I am passionate about entertaining and setting a beautiful table! I may or may not have an addiction to cloth napkins and fun salad plates oh and goblets too! I think I will always have a home decorating DIY project in the works as long as my hubby is on board with me haha. We have painted A LOT in the 6 homes we have owned in the 35 years that we have been married as well as re-done multiple pieces of furniture, added wall and ceiling treatments, replaced lights, bathroom fixtures and even tiled floors! I have sewn what seems like a million window treatments for our home as well as for family, made slipcovers, and duvets and even a formal dress or two!
