Home for Christmas


Home For Christmas 2020 

Please click the link above to see the Home for Christmas 2020 concert to benefit the Memphis Union Mission.  Servants Heart starts singing around 12 minutes into the concert.

My Hair


I wanted to save this picture so when I think about whacking all of my hair off, I will remember that there are plenty of days that I really do like my hair length.....this happens to be one of them.  
 

Covid 19 Pfizer vaccine

Grateful to have been able to get the COVID-19 vaccine.  It gives us a #ShotOfHope that one day things will get back to normal and we can get rid of the masks and I can hug my daddy.


 

ColorStreet Nails

A friend gave me this set of Color Street nail polish.  It is called Never Forgotten for infant and pregnancy loss.  It was given to me in memory of my baby Nathan.  Thank you Connie for thinking of me.

"How you dune????"  This has been my favorite so far.  it is shimmery.

this is one of the 3 Christmas sets I got.  It has christmas lights and reindeer.  I liked the lights but not the reindeer so much.

this was a color street knock off.  I LOVED them.............for the first 2 days, then by day 3 they were a mess and I took them off.  They never really cured to my nails.  

I am ready for Santa Claus to come....this is "just be-claus".  It is Santa, hats and mittens.

 

Dallas is in Kindergarten

Dallas started Kindergarten this fall.  Sarah sent me this picture......bless their little hearts.  I hate COVID-19, but isn't he cute with his sad little bear mask on.

It has been a tough year for Southern Gospel Music

Due to COVID-19 lockdowns and social distancing, 2020 has been a rough year for those in the Southern Gospel Music industry.  Servants Heart has been blessed to be able to sing a few concerts this year, but we have had around 35 cancellations.  We have missed getting to get out and see all of our friends and bring the gospel in song that we feel called to do.  Hopefully with the new vaccination, 2021 will be a better year for us and all of our friends.  We have prayed for those that sing as a full time ministry.  Gratefully, we have all continued to work our secular jobs during this pandemic.

Keep us all in your prayers as we look forward to a healthy and happy new year.  

 

Christmas 2020 looks different this year

 



2020 has been one of those years for sure with COVID-19 and the lockdowns and social distancing and our "bubble" of people.  We are still not sure at this time how we will spend the holidays....it is just not worth anyone getting sick, but that did not stop me from shopping on Amazon when I was out sick on home quarantine...ha!!!  I saw a facebook meme that said we did not get an order from Amazon today and the UPS driver knocked on the door to see if we were OK.  I thought it was cute. 

This is our 2020 Christmas tree.  Trying to decide about using just white lights next year.  Momma always loved colored lights and Annabeth loves colored lights, so that is what we have, but maybe next year I will try something different...who knows.

Another thing I miss is getting to spend time with family.  This picture came up in my FB memories of 2019 when the Self ladies got together for a holiday lunch.  I have seen Angela and Mrs. Conlee a few times this year, but I have not seen Aunt Sandra at all.  I sure do miss getting to hug everyone's necks.

I know this won't last forever, so until things get back to normal, whatever that is, I will just enjoy the quiet, down time at home.
