Like it???

OMG this is beautiful! You are an incredible artist! Thank you so, so much ... how totally perfect! This will be framed in short order ... my only decision - whether to put it above the fireplace in the front room or above my desk where I spend so much more time!

Wow. http://www.avcanada.ca/albums/displayim ... ?pos=-1566

Widow, I'm glad you like it!
Thank you for your compliments. That kind of reaction makes me want to break out the brushes again!
Have a great Christmas! :smt040

That's an awesome painting JayVee! Wow is right! ...And a fabulous gift.

The genuine appreciation for Kirsten and the kind of Christmas spirit we've seen in this thread is awesome too.

I hope you all have a great Christmas!

Merry Christmas "Widow" and family. I hope your kids have the best Christmas ever.

It seems a little bird has made a story suggestion to the local TV News ... interview is set for tomorrow morning!

If it does indeed air, I will record and post for all!

Thank you to the "little bird", and thank you all - AGAIN - for making this Christmas one worth remembering!

I'm embarrassingly late in coming to this thread- and worse still: my old PayPal account was compromised, so yule be gettin 'er in the mail there ma'am. :oops: Well after Christmas I'm sure....


And, please don't even think of thanking me- this is (our) way of thanking you.

Well, the A-Channel guy was here this morning ... some of you may end up recognizing what you've sent - no names should be visible. The segment should air tomorrow, Christmas Eve, during the Vancouver Island Report at 6.30pm. A heartwarming Christmas story!

More snow on the way here ... they're saying this will be the first time since 1971 that all of Canada will have a white Christmas.

Stay Safe everyone - and Merry Christmas!

P.S. Please, no comments about the hair!

Merry Christmas, Kirsten! Just saw you on the 'A' Channel - even saw "The Bat" briefly - so glad to hear that so many have been generous. Save some for The Quinnie!

Great Beaver print - I thought "the tube" might have been a float pump!

All the best for the holidays to you and your family, from Me and Mrs. Bank and The Underdog.

ps. Hair?

... didn't get a chance to look in the mirror as the reporter arrived ... was worried I may have looked "windswept" once again! Looks like my hairbrush did the job though ...

A very, very Merry Christmas to you all ...
