About Me
- Betty
- I am married to a minister. We have been married 52 years. We have two daughters, two sons-by-love and eight grandchildren. Our house is the home that grew. We have remodeled several times, adding on additions. We live in the country and enjoy gardening, our three cats and fish pool.

Precious Sister Betty....
Your Christmas decorations are always a sight to behold.
May God fill your life with love, joy and peace during this Holy season and throughout the Nw Year.
As I'm sure it is with you... busy time! I will write soon. Thank you for your newsy e-mail. I filled with joy to tell you I've received a call!!!
Blessing - Marion
What a beautiful Nativity!
We have a very large Nativity in our church and our pastor had all the children gathered around beside it. He let the children speak with the microphone. One little guy blurted out, "That baby looks like a girl!!" LOL! Thought you and your minister husband would get a kick out of that!

Hi Betty! Oh, what a beautiful Nativity! I hope you had a wonderful Christmas!
Be a sweetie,
Shelia ;)
Betty, this is a beautiful post. Thank you so much for sharing.
Wishing you and your family abundant blessings in 2012.
