Something sad...this little birdie fell off the couch and broke her wing!
Her mommy cried many a tear over her sweet baby.

Babies have many falls but this one hit just right and broke
her arm at the top. She has to have a cast on it for a few weeks.

See this sweet handsome boy...he LOVES his bear SO much,
he has about loved him to death, just like the story of the
Velveteen Rabbit.

He and Tricky are almost always together...
This is the same boy when he was a baby...I bought this big soft bear
for him back then...makes me so happy that he has loved it so much.

That looks so yummy! And sad for your poor little one. Broken bones are not fun! Mind if I ask how much you paid to have your blog printed like a book? I've been thinking about doing that. Have a happy day.

Yum, that looks good! The Christmas lunch at our office is Dec 20th and I've promised a Sopapilla Cheesecake ...I might just make this one to take along as well. There are 30 people in our office and I don't think they will have any trouble cleaning up two cheesecake desserts!
You should write a kid's storybook called 'Adventures of Tricky the Bear and His Boy' for your little grandson. I bet he is still young enough to love that and it would be something he could read to his children someday.
Special prayers for the little one with the broken arm and also for her mommy. It's much easier to hurt yourself than to see your child hurt.
MERRY CHRISTMAS, Julie, to you and all the family!
sweet kids and a great recipe. It was a joy to see both.
Happy Holidays
So sorry about the chicken wing! I bet there were some tears all right.
Kids are pretty darn resilient and they do well.
Cute pictures of the other kids. They are so darling.
I love that pretzel salad. I'll have to try this one. I've only had it once and I was in love.
That recipe looks so good right now! I've got a sweet tooth that is begging to be fed...LOL.
So sorry about the little one's broken arm. I know her mommy is hurting worse than her sweet little girl is. I pray she heals up nicely.
Your grandson is cute with his favorite bear. And little Clare is just adorable!
Have a wonderful weekend!
I'm going to pin this recipe because I've had it and it is delicious!!! Thanks for sharing it! I love the pictures of your grandchildren! They're so adorable! Enjoy your weekend!
Wow you are way ahead of me. No sitting back yet. I have a girlfriend luncheon here on Thursday, then I will catch my breath and get ready for my mom's arrival for a couple of weeks. It is a wonderful time of the year. I love this "salad" and so does my family, especially with raspberries. Hope your baby heals quickly.
Oh Julie, I LOVE this Jell-O dessert. I seriously LOVE it and always eat more than I should! :)
Dear little Sophia with her arm in a cast. Sweet baby girl ~ heal quickly!
oh my gosh that poor little darling with the broken wing,, thts so sad, beautriful new to me desert, looks very inviting for sure, your photos are lovely, I know there was something else i wanted to say but my mind is stuck on the broken arm,,,, awwww,
Oh, that dessert is one of our favorites, too! I can hardly stop myself once I start eating it! Soooo good!
Poor little birdie. The good news is that children heal quickly. Bless her little heart.
Congratulations on the wonderful win, Julie. woo hoo!
I am nowhere near done with the shopping! LOL! You are so good getting that done already! blessings ~ Tanna
Mmmm...I've got a recipe that is quite near that. And yeah. That whole combination is really good. And low cal of course.
Thank you so much for the delish jell-o recipe..going to try this one very soon...your grandbabies are absolutely beautiful!! Sending the softest butterfly kiss for little Sophia..
Marilee
Thanks for sharing your pretzel jello recipe. It looks absolutely delicious.
It's so hard when little ones get hurt. When my grandson was about the same age of your little birdie, his Mom was holding him while walking across an icy parking lot. Mom fell, landed on his leg and broke it. Believe me there were LOTS of tears there and it wasn't from Corban!
You have some adorable grandchildren.
So sorry about the wing of your precious little birdie, and I hope she AND her Mom are feeling better!
The pictures of your other little birdie with that bear are just precious too!!
I was wondering if you got snow there. I love being home when it does, especially if there's a tree! Enjoy your weekend!!
Julie, my sister used to make a cheesecake like that but with crushed peanuts. I think the pretzels would be yummy yummy.
Bright eyed Claire : )
Poor little bird : (
Fun bear boy : )
AND GREAT GIVE AWAY : )))))
Hang on to your hats in those winds gf.
Love You
Love Me
xoxoxoxox
So sorry about your granddaughter, prayers for a quick recovery.
Loved the teddy bear story, I am going to copy this recipe and try it during the holidays, it sounds wonderful.
So glad you have got everything done , now enjoy this special time.
Sue
Poor darling Sophia, I hope that sling comes off in no time. Your salad looks delicious, I like this recipe but never tasted it, I might give it a try for Christmas. Nice for a pot luck or take-along. xo
Hi Julie~
Oh dear, that poor little angel - I hope she starts feeling better . . . and her mommy too... :0(
You have such beautiful grands! The big bear is almost as cute as the baby!
Love that recipe - it's also one of our families favorites, but they like it with raspberries - I can't wait to try it with strawberries, yummm!
Hugs,
Barb
Aw, poor baby! It's almost harder on the mom I think..it breaks our hearts to see our kids suffer. That Claire has amazing eyes. :)
That jello dish is one of our favorites!
Poor little one with the broken arm!!! I hope she feels better soon!
That gorgeous Jello salad got my attention! Will have to make it soon. Sorry to hear little Sophia had a fall, hope she's good as new in no time. I'm behind as usual, lots to do before Christmas arrives. We have a chance of snow or ice this week so I best get busy! With parents in two nursing homes now, I'm spread thin so to speak. Have taken on yet another job with an online newspaper writing a food column once a week. Why do I think I can do it all?! Thanks for being so faithful to visit me!
We have that salad recipe and I LOVE IT. Man, is it tasty.
oh dear..so sorry for the little birdie who broke her wing.
I can bet her poor momma was upset.
She'll get lots of lovin' in this healing process.
I am glad you are getting things done, and can sit down, and let the Sweet spirit of Christmas descend upon you and your family. That's what all of us should be doing.
Oh I'm so glad to get this recipe...I tasted it at a party years ago, and had forgotten how delicious it was.
I will certainly make it for Christmas.
Thanks Julie!
Oh I will pray that her little arm heals fast! Bless her heart! Love all those grand babes smile! That recipe is one of my favorites! Xo
The dessert looks so yummy. They used to make that at the store I
work at but haven't in a long time.
That poor little birdie with the broken wing. I hope she's feeling better soon. At least when they are that young they recover quickly
dear julie
mmh the dessert looks very delicious
thanks for giving the recipe.
have a wonderful week,
love regina
That is a delicious jello salad.... I've had it before at a R.S. social.
So sorry about your grand baby breaking her arm...OUCH!
She will have to wait to help build a snowman :)
You have a sweet family, and I know that they are a blessing to you.
Enjoy the blessings of the season, and the blessings of having your family :)
Oh poor darling little Sophia!
I swear that could be Addison, she is a climber too!
I bet Sophia's Mommy was very sad.
And Claire, what a beauty she is!
Love your recipe too, nummy!
Hugs,
Cindy
Ahhh poor little Sophia - I bet that really scared her mama, but kids have a way of bouncing back and doing fine.
The recipe is one I am copying down - I like the twist with the pretzels. I think my family will like it - and it looks so festive too!
It really is feeling like Christmas isn't it? I love it!
Enjoy your Sunday :-D
That little Claire...oh my!
Hope Sophia heals quickly and that give-away looks great. Cute little dishes.
I'll keep that recipe. Thanks for sharing.
Hugs, Deb
My peeps LOVE that pretzel salad. Will probably be making it for Christmas again. :-) OH OH OH...poor little bunny - so sorry for Sophia, and I know mama was just hurtin'...we hate it when our babies get hurt and want to take the pain for them...bless her heart. She will be good as new by the New Year! :-) whew, glad that one's over with... - My sister had a dog...Pinkie...that she loved on and slept with so much that all the fur came off and it just had the backing on it by the time she was in high school, yep, still had it...even though she didn't sleep with it anymore. Some stuffed animals are just SPECIAL. :-) too cute. love all the babies. Will go now and visit your friend. What a NICE gift! xoxoxox
Ouch. Her sweet little face looks like it hurts. I hope she heals fast.
Love the big teddy bear. My adopted son came with one, his only possession. He loved that bear and called it Joey. The whole town knew about Joey.
The new baby has such a sweet smile already for such a little one.
Glad that you are all ready to relax. I don't know how you do that with so many. Who do you do presents with all those grands......I am looking for advice for my 6.
Julie- We have made this pretzel "salad" (that's why MY cookbook called it) for years. The kids all love it, too.
Poor little baby with the broken arm. Thankfully, kids heal fast and she won't remember it. xo Diana
Your recipe looks wonderful, it's a new one to me. I think I will try it out!
I still mean to try out your no-knead bread, but I haven't yet, I will...
So sad to hear that a baby has broken anything, poor sweet thing.
All of your grandchildren are absolutely adorable, just like their grandma!
Have a great day, dear lady.
Hugs, Cindy
This is my kind of desert! I love strawberries, cheesecake and easy :)
Sorry about your little granddaughter's broken arm. I'm sure her mom suffered greatly too. It's always hard to see our little ones in pain.
My twins are 11 and still very attached to their stuffed animals. Don't tell them I told you though :)
Have a joyous week my beautiful friend!
Blessings,
Marcia
So sorry about the broken arm. Poor baby! I hope she has a quick recovery. I always love seeing photos of your grandchildren, they are all so precious! :)
That jello salad looks really good! Thank you for sharing the recipe.
Ugh! Poor,sweet, little Claire. I can imagine her mama shedding those tears. Hard to see your little one hurt. Speedy recovery. I am sure she is getting A plus care and lots of hugs and love.
Thanks, too, for the recipe. I was wondering what to make this year for our Ward Christmas party and I think I will make the yummy Strawberry Pretzel Jello. Looks festive. Thanks. xo
I hope that poor little wing heals quickly!
Thank you for sharing this recipe! It's the exact one I had and couldn't find. Can't wait to cook up this sweet dish.
Sorry the angel broke her wing!
Enjoyed seeing all your little cutie pies!
Oh Julie... What a sweet and beautiful group of little ones.... I'm so sorry one of your little peanuts fell off the sofa and hurt herself. It's so fortunate that kids heal so quickly though.
Blessings to you and yours...
Spencer
Poor baby. Seeing her in the hospital gown and pacifier makes me want to give her a gentle hug. Hope she is all better real soon.
I remember eating that jello many years ago and loving it. I think I may need to revisit that recipe.
Oh those hospital pictures sure tug at the heart strings! I am just like your daughter that way too ... when my kids cry, I cry! Poor little baby girl! :(
I am so happy you shared this recipe! I love jello, but I am CRAZY in love with the pretzel jello and have never made it!!! I'm gonna!
I don't remember having this dessert before. Looks amazing!!!
Hugs to you and your soooo darling family!

That broken arm broke even my heart; such a sadness....but that jello recipe is a family favorite here too. Happy day friend.
Awe, so sorry to hear about Sophia hurting her arm...:/ I will say a prayer for a quick recovery for the little sweetie pie.
Your grandson and his bear are the sweetest. I could see how that would make Grandma smile, seeing as how you bought it for him...:) Like Christopher Robin and silly Old Pooh Bear! Cute!
Your new granddaughter is adorable too! What a sweet smile!
Thanks for sharing the recipe, it looks so yummy!!! Have a wonderful week, dear friend!!
xoxo...Gloria
Hi Julie! That dessert looks pretty dangerous! Just like we like 'em! Haha. Thanks so much for your visits and great feedback! (I'm just a lurker on FB. Boo. :(
Oh, poor baby! Hope her mend is quick. Your kid-lings are just beautiful ... yes, they do make me smile, too.
What a lovely gift from your friend.
Enjoyed the family gathering picture, Julie. Handsome family.
Have a beautiful week ~
TTFN ~
Hugs,
Marydon
Oh I am making that jello for sure! Ouchie! Poor little thing with a broken wing!
Awe, what sweeties! I am so sorry about the birdie with the broken wing.
Poor Sophia! I hope she feels much better real soon and for Christmas! At least she is young and I believe her bones will heal quicker than us older folks. My heart goes out to her Mom too.
One of my daughters has a bear that she has had since she was little and she still has it decorating her bed!
I have yet to start wrapping! It is something I must start this weekend because a lot of it is being shipped cross country. I've been busy decorating and planning my village which is being readied to be on display.
Eileen xxoo
Oh yes, I'm smiling at that smile:) And I hope the little one's wing is well on mend by now.
~Cindy
Congratulations on the beautiful cup and saucer!
The recipe looks like the exactly right thing to please my hubby. Thanks for the recipe.
As for the poor little birdie... I'm praying right now Julie.
Blessings, Debbie
Claire has a very nice smile. The poor baby broke her arm and it must be difficult for her to stay in hospital.Hope she will be better for Christmas! Hugs ,
Catherine
Oh, your poor little grandbaby! Bless her heart~ hope she gets her cast off soon.
And that sweet lil' boy with that bog ol' bear is so sweet!
Congrats on your wonderful win, and thanks for the recipe~ it sounds wonderful!
Thanks so much for sharing this! My daughter & I were just discussing this tonight. Her tummy has been so upset since she lost her Coco...she hasn't been able to eat much. One of their neighbors brought this salad over to them and it's something she's been able to handle.
I'm so sorry about the fall! I just hate to see a little one hurt. We know it's going to happen with children but when a bone is broken, it's so sad. The other pics are totally adorable!
I'm trying to get the paint mess cleaned up and everything put back in place. I want to get back to "enjoying" this season!
xo
Pat
Your cuties really are CUTE, all of them!
Have a lovely time gearing up for Christmas, sweet Julie xx
I've had this jello many times at church dinners and such but never made it myself. I might have to put this on our Christmas menu! So sorry about your little one's wing. Usually harder for mama than anyone. Mimi
Ohhhh poor little claire with her broken arm ~ I hope that she and mommy are doing better.
Your dessert looks wonderful Julie!! I think my husband would love that one.
Great photos of the lil man and his favorite bear. cute.
Have a great sunday.
Your grandbabies are adorable!
