Mary I pray for you and Peter everyday. It's not just because your sick or nice guys!! It's because the compassion and passion you show for people all over the world. You both are two very very special people!!
The Frey Life Actually some how I resist sleeping, mg cousin actually brought it for me toward the end of the infusion I'm working on it now, it has Dory from Finding Nemo on it! I love your Mickey Tee shirt it looks like it's stretchy for infusions!
The Frey Life I wonder if they'll have it still available my Christmas tee shirt that I'm wearing is from Target and it's in Juniors but it's absolutely perfect
Praying your side effects are minimal, Mary. I took some time to stay up last night to pray for you, as I was up all night stressed out, and turned the negative into a positive activity - praying. Hope your day was awesome today. -Quincey
I'm a coffee addict too. It just tastes good! Your hard work and generosity is always inspiring. I actually just started training a service dog for myself, and that spice painting is so cute! Sending lots of love to all 3 of you!
I wish I had the funds to support a child. This organization seems to utilize their funds well. I will be seeing if I can at least purchase some supplies for a family. Thank you so much for sharing!
Thanks! She's 3 but she naturally developed the "work" part without any assistance. I didn't know she'd end up being my service dog as I am on a waiting list that lasts years!. Now it's just fine tuning manners and she's a calm, relaxed greyhound all used to loud noises and crowds so I was blessed when she came into my life.
Thank you! And they're about the most mellow breed in general I have seen. You wouldn't think it since they run up to 45mph in 3 strides! They exercise for 10 minutes and then sleep all day!
I have the same Deanna. And I love Mary and Peter as well, they inspire me and they also help me realize I'm not alone. Like the other day when it took all of Mary's energy to get to her car, I know exactly what that's like. Take care
Art is a great tool to get through hard times, I like working on my bullet journal, my UA-cam channel, and knit when I'm feeling anxious or stressed :)
You thank us for coming to the hospital with you! I say thank you! your endless positivity really makes my day, I just grin my way through your videos.
There is nothing like NPO testing in the morning to put a scowl on my face! ;). I'm so glad you aren't reacting, and I pray that little temp is a sign your body is fighting these buggers! World Vision is a great organization, we've partnered with them many times! Right now we've committed to 2 Haitian children at the orphanage our daughter has volunteered at the last 2 yrs. (She left a large part of her heart in Haiti!). It's so life giving to help these kiddos out! That's a great idea to supplement your monthly giving with an extra boost at Christmastime, too! :). Now, as far as squeezing almost 95,000 people into that little room, the least the hospital can do is bring in a double bed from the B&W Hospital next door! LOL!! You give them great publicity after all! ;).
I've just found the joy of painting, I'm no way near what you are doing but your pictures are very inspiring. I started painting when I was diagnosed with anxiety and it is so relaxing. I hope you are doing good and that your treatment progresses without any complications 😁💜
Oh Mary! You are so inspiring, even in the hospital. Here you are hooked up to IVs, monitors, doing your PT and you are once again thinking of others and not yourself. You are truly a wonderful soul (and Peter and Ollie) and you amaze me with every video I watch. I love your lights behind you. I wish I could sponsor a child but in the face of dealing with my own health, I am unable to do so. But kudos to those of the Frey Life that can give!! I could go on and on but I'm so blessed to have you guys "in my life" and I hope you get to feeling more like your self! Oh yeah, the tiny tree is adorable and such a good idea. From experience being in the medical field, it helps sooo much to know you're appreciated! And candy is always a good idea!!
That is totally understandable. God uses us in many different ways in the different chapters of life, and I bet you have many people you are pouring love and encouragement into during this chapter. You hang in there!
Oh we LOVE World Vision! Child sponsorship through World Vision has blessed our family so much, and we cannot recommend them enough! So amazing. Helping to transform an entire community!
I would just like to say, that I have been a subscriber for a little while now and I watch the daily videos plus I watch the older videos. The passion and encouragement that you bring out to others is amazing and very uplifting to me. Also, even though unintentional on your part, your found love for watercolors made me just buy a set and I have been trying out some different things, hopefully I get better, and I hope to continue to see more of your beautiful paintings! Thank you Freys for everything you have done for me thus far!
your amazing at painting!!!! I love how Peter stays with you at the hospital 💟 so so sweet 💗 praying for you Mary that your hospital stay goes well an you get better 😘
oh how lovely. World Vision has such a high reputation. My daughter lives in South Africa. As part of her living there, to indeed be able to live there, she supports a maternity hospital. Before, the hospitals outreach units (small clinics?) sometimes sent the babies home wrapped in newspapers. To live there, and she knows indeed how blessed she is, she gives to this hospital and... things are better. Also, she teaches people to KNIT. Which isn't as big a deal there as it is HERE. But her maid (you have a maid, it helps them survive), now not only knits for her family, but teaches knitting and charges! And, she buys yarn from a small farm in SA...and it's a whole circle. Not just giving but giving what people need to do better. World Vision also does that. What does a family need to survive? Not "here have a meal" but, "let's help you make a meal." I'm putting it poorly, but it's considered giving. That lasts beyond the initial gift.
Kitty Mervine You mean like, a gift that keeps giving? Like, if you give a guy a fish, he eats for one day, and if you teach him how to fish he will eat for a lifetime kind of thing. I think that's really cool.
yes, like a pot for cooking, rather than just "here's some food, eat one meal." And perhaps farm implements, and certainly an animal... for a small home farm. I will say our church did this, but my Sunday school class was very small so we only raised enough for a guinea pig, and I couldn't do that (I have had them as pets)... so I chipped in for a chicken!
Mary when you said that about it not being makeup the old Maybelline song went through my head "maybe she's born with it, maybe it's Maybelline" LOL You were born with it!! Beauty that shines through even when you're in the hospital hooked up to stuff. It is so beautiful to me that because of your love of the Lord and your willingness to make the best of each day because it is a day He has made shines right through you and gives you a natural radiance that no one can "blame" your lungs for!! Praying you do well and your team is able to find a plan that works for you AND that you get to come home soon! Beautiful art. Love that Peter got the memory foam mattress so he can be more comfortable. *hugs*
It's so cool watching someone go through similar things as me. I'm also in hospital having treatments for my CF. I'm just about managing to do my uni work whilst I'm in hospital but watching you be so positive whilst going through the same thing. Keep doing what you do. Lots of love from England xx
Hi Georgina! Thanks for saying hi! I remember those days well...Uni and CF...it's NOT easy! And you are a total WARRIOR for doing your best! Keep up the good work of taking the best care of your body that you possibly can! I hope they are bringing you treats while you're in there :)
already sponsor a child through world Vision. has been doing so for like the last 5 or so years. been great seeing her updates over the years and seeing her grow up.
Hey you guys are such an inspiration, I am so delighted that you are promoting sponsoring a child through world vision, this is a charity very dear to me as I have sponsored many children over the past 20 years. Keep well Mary, I'm loving your artwork..... heart hugs from Ireland 💕💕
I am literally bindge watching your channel, i so love you guys! i have alot of medical issues, not CF but alot of other medical issues. And because of it, im losing an eye in a week. i love how full of life you still are. i hope to become like you, my medial brings me down SO MUCH. i love listening to you guys!
Love your paintings, your Christmas lights and your big hearts! Just wanted to say my daughter is down with a bad flu and was listening as I watched this video.. and when you said you were feeling feverish she said "me too... we're the same Mom!" and it made her smile :). So THANK YOU for making my girl smile!
I got the same kind of gift as you did once. My grandmother gave to a child in need in Africa in my name as a part of my high school graduation gift. I also loved it! To this day I still think it is one of the best gifts I've ever been given
I hate that you have to go but I'm thankful you guys have each other and can access the things that might help you feel better! keep staying positive and I hope you feel not terrible this time around!
I don't know what else to comment that I haven't already. The way you take each day in the hospital or not is wonderful. You make a better week or so of being in the hospital than many people do at home who are "normal" because they don't have the same appreciation of life that you and Peter do.
I love World Vision! I have ran a 1/2 marathon on 3 separate occasions with our church group for Team World Vision, which is specific to supplying clean drinking water to villages.
I don't have CF, but I have Ehlers Danlos Syndrome and watching your vlogs helps me get through the tougher days, like today. I love seeing you both be so positive through everything. Thanks for making videos, guys :)
I'm a huge supporter of world vision! I have sponsored Yorgelys for 12 years now. I also sponsored a second child who just graduated from the program in September because their community project reached their goals!! 😀 I also love their gift catalogue and shop for birthdays and Christmas every year. Thank you for talking about World Vision. 😀
Wow, what a cool plug! I have been running for the last two years for world vision to give water to people in Africa. And last May I started sponsoring my first child her name is Rihanna she lives in Kenya and she's now 2. I can't tell you the joy I get every time I see a new picture that they send me or a status report it makes me cry with joy to see how good she's doing! Thank you
The Frey Life I did Chicago marathon last year I only got through half 😢but this year I did a Half marathon. it was meant to be a Half marathon for Worldvision in grand rapids Michigan and me and my daughter got through that one. I have some major health problems so we're going to stick with half marathons from now on but I absolutely love Worldvision they are great people and they don't just talk the talk they walk the walk or run LOL
So awesome you two sharing about World Vision. I sponsor 6 kids through Compassion International. I got to meet 2 of them so far. My first child, Karla, just graduated the program last month. I sponsored her for 14yrs!!! Sponsorship changes lives!!! The childs and yours!!
Thank You for all that the Frey Life is doing! I am a service dog breeder and trainer. I try to understand as much as I can about the diseases that cause a person to need a service dog so I can train my puppies the most helpful tasks from the beginning to placement an beyond. You both warm my heart and delight me.
ID docs are amazing. The questions they ask are super personal and some stuff seems unrelated, but for anyone with antibiotic resistant infections or a mystery illness, don't hesitate to see one.
you guys are an inspiration I'm having two surgeries this month and your courage about your condition has given me the strength to realize I'll be okay
I had a rough health day today and then I saw you painted a whale. It's a long story, but whales are what I call "God-Winks," every time I see a whale it just reminds me that God is with me. Kind of like Him saying "we got this! I'm here!" It's funny the random places whales will appear. It made me smile to see your whale today. I needed that! Thanks :)
I loved today's vlog ! It might sound like an awkward thing to say but the rhythm with the speeded parts and all was super nice to watch ! 😊 My thoughts are with you guys as we are starting Christmas month !!! 😁 I love you guys, all the way from 🇫🇷😘😘 thank you for making me laugh or, at least, smile everyday ! 😊
I love you guys so much you helped me out of a really really hard time and i watch all your videos ugh I love you so much i hope you feel better marry 💖
I hope You Feel Better soon...I love How You Make Your Room Kinda Homely...And Y'all are always smiling And Making The Beat Of Any Situation.....I Wish Everyone Could Be That Way.....There Is A Special Place In My Heart For Your Family....I Love Watching Your Videos They Make My Day So Much Better💜💜💜💜💜
Excellent Vlog! You are both in my prayers in the evenings after I watch - which I have been doing now for several weeks - as always - Blessings to you from Florida!
you guys are my favorite youtubers. you give me the strength to push through any hard situation. i just had a baby boy on 11-13 and the whole time i was in the hospital i watched your videos just to lift me up. we were in the hospital for 6 days. baby had jaudice. but watching your videos made me feel so much better because i knew it was going to be okay. i tried to laugh as much as possible. but its hard sometimes. thank you guys for encouraging your viewers and being so positive. much love from ohio 💖
Mary, Peter, I forgot to mention, that in the video when you were leaving for the hospital, you said " going to the hospital for anyone is stressful and scared, but the time that you feel ok, make the most of that time." Well, my friend, you got me thinking, I also am hospitalized often, and am in pain 24/7...but when I am.i try to make.it less by watching TV or a blog of you and some of my other things I can do to keep my mind off of PAIN! And you know it does help, not that I do not feel pain, but as you say to.us " make the best.of it"!
One question for youtube, Where is the "Love"button?! Freylife you all deserve one,and you guys are a blessing,and Mary,I love your drawings,God bless u guys!! =)
With all You are going through You are so positive and happy You're an inspiration Peter is so sweet always there for You Ollie is great and cute too God Bless You three Merry Christmas
This was the only time I prepacked a bag for my current hospital admission. My PICC Line was infected so I assumed I would be admitted & a surprised MRSA diagnosis. I didn't add my Watercolor pencils crayons but I discovered them when looking for socks. There where only green red and yellow but it kept my mind busy and off the pain. I'm glad someone else likes distraction as much as me. Thanks for helping to keep me going.
You guys are so inpiring.... my family and I have sponsored children, give to the local food bank and paid for peoples groceries when shopping .. just to help someone that may need the help. We also donate to the SPCA for cats and dogs .....I also love to cook soo I always take cooked food to the local church that does meals for those that need it . This is something ive been doing in lue of gifts for the last few years. Just want to thank you guys for being who you are .. love the vlogs :)
You're right! I always tell my patients that the ID docs are simply the antibiotic experts. It's vague but much less scary sounding! I love your painting, it's so good!!
i'm so glad to see mary painting again! i absolutely love the whale. i hope it becomes a print one day, because i have a nautical/ocean themed bathroom it would go perfectly in! anyway, i wish you all the best mary, and you too peter!
#twinning!! I was also in the hospital yesterday connected to the blood pressure monitor, heart monitor, and oxygen. Lol. It was for a migraine though because they were infusing me with toradol, magnesium, two bags of saline, and zofran. Thank God for zofran.. it's a life saver. I was extremely dehydrated yesterday so I ended up at the er. We ended up leaving at 5am. Long, tiring night. Resting today. I've got chronic migraines and many other chronic illnesses. But i always make the best of it and watching you guys every helps so much with staying positive!! And Mary and Peter, you get some rest too!
You know how they say that dogs start to look like their owners after a while? Well, Ollie is starting to have a resemblance to Peter! I swear they have some of the same facial expressions and I mean that in the nicest way! I hope you start feeling better, Mary. I've spent a lot of months in hospital and it can be so boring. Painting is a great past-time and you are so talented. God bless!
I love art because it is all portable to create anywhere. I am recovering from my dental surgery to remove a cracked molar. He had to take it out surgically in two parts and we broke the filling in the tooth beside and a sliver of my jaw again. Watching this is so wonderful! Love you guys! 😁😘💞💖🐬🐋
The Frey Life aww thanks Mary! I am sure it will heal up well. Tricky thing is my immune system can't fight off a simple infection so I am going to have to be extra careful. Plus it slows my healing time. I have you to keep me company, an adorable cat, a cute snake to kiss it better and an awesome boyfriend. Can't go wrong with that! XO. Hope your hospital stay isn't too long.
Mary, I have a very special request, if you wouldn't mind. A Christmas Ollie with his red coat/vest painting would be awesome! I think it would be a hit.
My old youth group use to sponsor a child through world vision. We would do the 30 hour famine and collect money to put towards our child and it was really great so it's really cool that you guys are also doing that
We sponsor two twins named Fabricia and Fabiana in Brazil through World Vision also! They are 10 years old on December 5th. It such an amazing opportunity and I enjoy seeing pictures and letters on how we helping them.
I also love my cream with a dash of coffee so no judgments here! Enjoy the things you love, all things considered, there are plenty of worse options then coffee! Hope you feel better Mary. Peter your truly a blessing!
I had to run an errand in Boston today, got soooo lost, drove around and around but I smiled when I gave a wave toward the hospital. :)
112musician 💞💟
112musician that's so sweet
Mary I pray for you and Peter everyday. It's not just because your sick or nice guys!!
It's because the compassion and passion you show for people all over the world. You both are two very very special people!!
It's awesome that you're painting while you're in the hospital! Today during my infusion my cousin brought me a latch work rug to work on!
Did you work on the rug until the benedryl kicked in and then ZZZZZZZZ nighty night Sarah :)
The Frey Life Actually some how I resist sleeping, mg cousin actually brought it for me toward the end of the infusion I'm working on it now, it has Dory from Finding Nemo on it! I love your Mickey Tee shirt it looks like it's stretchy for infusions!
Yes, nice and light :) I got it from Walmart and I knew it would work well for the hospital :)
The Frey Life I wonder if they'll have it still available my Christmas tee shirt that I'm wearing is from Target and it's in Juniors but it's absolutely perfect
Praying your side effects are minimal, Mary. I took some time to stay up last night to pray for you, as I was up all night stressed out, and turned the negative into a positive activity - praying. Hope your day was awesome today. -Quincey

Now it's just fine tuning manners and she's a calm, relaxed greyhound all used to loud noises and crowds so I was blessed when she came into my life.
Thank you! And they're about the most mellow breed in general I have seen. You wouldn't think it since they run up to 45mph in 3 strides! They exercise for 10 minutes and then sleep all day!
That little train robot is so cute!
I don't have cf but I have fibromyalgia and chronic pain I love your vlogs...and you make me stronger. Mary and Peter you are awesome! And Ollie boy
I have the same Deanna. And I love Mary and Peter as well, they inspire me and they also help me realize I'm not alone. Like the other day when it took all of Mary's energy to get to her car, I know exactly what that's like. Take care

Mary you are really talented. Your paintings are so cute.
So much inspiration. Thanks for spreading the positivity.
I am literally bindge watching your channel, i so love you guys! i have alot of medical issues, not CF but alot of other medical issues. And because of it, im losing an eye in a week. i love how full of life you still are. i hope to become like you, my medial brings me down SO MUCH. i love listening to you guys!
You are so talented at water painting Mary! I love the whale
Love your paintings, your Christmas lights and your big hearts! Just wanted to say my daughter is down with a bad flu and was listening as I watched this video.. and when you said you were feeling feverish she said "me too... we're the same Mom!" and it made her smile :). So THANK YOU for making my girl smile!
Awe, sweet little one. You're not alone :) Hang in there!
I got the same kind of gift as you did once. My grandmother gave to a child in need in Africa in my name as a part of my high school graduation gift. I also loved it! To this day I still think it is one of the best gifts I've ever been given
So cool!
Thank you for your positive attitude! You are two amazing people. Mary, I hope you get feeling better! I love your art work!
Get better soon Mary! Love me some Ollie!
Such a talented artist! Praying for you and Peter! Peter, you are such a supportive husband! Stay positive and encouraged!
Mary, ur paintings are beautiful!! I love love love ur style!! ❤️
I hate that you have to go but I'm thankful you guys have each other and can access the things that might help you feel better! keep staying positive and I hope you feel not terrible this time around!
i love watching the both of you, always happy no matter how things are going you give me so much hope thank you
I don't know what else to comment that I haven't already. The way you take each day in the hospital or not is wonderful. You make a better week or so of being in the hospital than many people do at home who are "normal" because they don't have the same appreciation of life that you and Peter do.
Oh Cassidy, thank you. That means so much!
I love how creative you are when you're in the hospital your cards in your paintings there so pretty I hope you feel better soon
I love World Vision! I have ran a 1/2 marathon on 3 separate occasions with our church group for Team World Vision, which is specific to supplying clean drinking water to villages.
Awesome video! Great artwork and beautiful message for sponsoring children. World vision.
You are an absolutely awesome couple!!! Thanks for the idea on where our family Christmas gifts can go this year.
:) So exciting to think of the impact you can make!
I don't have CF, but I have Ehlers Danlos Syndrome and watching your vlogs helps me get through the tougher days, like today. I love seeing you both be so positive through everything. Thanks for making videos, guys :)

ID docs are amazing. The questions they ask are super personal and some stuff seems unrelated, but for anyone with antibiotic resistant infections or a mystery illness, don't hesitate to see one.
you guys are an inspiration I'm having two surgeries this month and your courage about your condition has given me the strength to realize I'll be okay
I had a rough health day today and then I saw you painted a whale. It's a long story, but whales are what I call "God-Winks," every time I see a whale it just reminds me that God is with me. Kind of like Him saying "we got this! I'm here!" It's funny the random places whales will appear. It made me smile to see your whale today. I needed that! Thanks :)
Mary you are so artistic ♥️ I appreciate both of your relationships with God, thank you for taking a stand and being such an incredible testimony!
I loved today's vlog ! It might sound like an awkward thing to say but the rhythm with the speeded parts and all was super nice to watch ! 😊 My thoughts are with you guys as we are starting Christmas month !!! 😁 I love you guys, all the way from 🇫🇷😘😘 thank you for making me laugh or, at least, smile everyday ! 😊
one of our Christmas tradition is to take a family off our church bus and buy gifts and baked items. To give them on Christmas eve.

Excellent Vlog! You are both in my prayers in the evenings after I watch - which I have been doing now for several weeks - as always - Blessings to you from Florida!
Thank you so much!
My husband and I have been sponsoring a child for a couple years actually. We love it.
That is so awesome!
you guys are my favorite youtubers. you give me the strength to push through any hard situation. i just had a baby boy on 11-13 and the whole time i was in the hospital i watched your videos just to lift me up. we were in the hospital for 6 days. baby had jaudice. but watching your videos made me feel so much better because i knew it was going to be okay. i tried to laugh as much as possible. but its hard sometimes. thank you guys for encouraging your viewers and being so positive. much love from ohio 💖
I'm so glad to hear that our videos can bring encouragement!
Ollie was so cute coming to lie down with you to make sure you're doing alright 💜 keep going Mary, praying your stay is as comfortable as possible (:
Mary, Peter, I forgot to mention, that in the video when you were leaving for the hospital, you said " going to the hospital for anyone is stressful and scared, but the time that you feel ok, make the most of that time." Well, my friend, you got me thinking, I also am hospitalized often, and am in pain 24/7...but when I am.i try to make.it less by watching TV or a blog of you and some of my other things I can do to keep my mind off of PAIN! And you know it does help, not that I do not feel pain, but as you say to.us " make the best.of it"!
One question for youtube, Where is the "Love"button?! Freylife you all
deserve one,and you guys are a blessing,and Mary,I love your drawings,God bless u guys!! =)
With all You are going through You are so positive and happy You're an inspiration Peter is so sweet always there for You Ollie is great and cute too God Bless You three Merry Christmas
This was the only time I prepacked a bag for my current hospital admission. My PICC Line was infected so I assumed I would be admitted & a surprised MRSA diagnosis. I didn't add my Watercolor pencils crayons but I discovered them when looking for socks. There where only green red and yellow but it kept my mind busy and off the pain. I'm glad someone else likes distraction as much as me. Thanks for helping to keep me going.
I just love you two!! Praying for you Mary!!💜💜💜
I loved you painted whale!! I am sending prayers that you get all the help you need during your stay. Xoxox
I have seen an ID doc and they can be a great part of your team :) maybe she will come up with something new to try
I love your paintings Mary! Would love to see more timelapses of you doing them.
You guys are so inpiring.... my family and I have sponsored children, give to the local food bank and paid for peoples groceries when shopping .. just to help someone that may need the help. We also donate to the SPCA for cats and dogs .....I also love to cook soo I always take cooked food to the local church that does meals for those that need it . This is something ive been doing in lue of gifts for the last few years. Just want to thank you guys for being who you are .. love the vlogs :)
It's amazing what an impact kindness makes on this world!
You're right! I always tell my patients that the ID docs are simply the antibiotic experts. It's vague but much less scary sounding! I love your painting, it's so good!!
Ah ha, Antibiotic Experts is such a better name!!! They shall now be called the AE docs instead :) I've declared it...that means it's true, right?
Perfect!
I love that peter stays with you. My ex husband didn't even visit when I had our daughter.
We sponsor a child through World Vision! It is amazing! Love that you are doing this!
That is awesome!
Been sponsoring a boy from equador through world vision for over 10 years, love your videos you are an inspiration!!
Your paintings are amazing Mary!! Much love from Georgia!
I love the videos which involve a painting process! Greetings from someone who also paints a lot during all kinds of therapies
LOVE your paintings!! Great job!
Thanks so much!
i'm so glad to see mary painting again! i absolutely love the whale. i hope it becomes a print one day, because i have a nautical/ocean themed bathroom it would go perfectly in! anyway, i wish you all the best mary, and you too peter!
Peter is amazing and efficient, and all three of my new paintings (prints) are already up on the store :) Thank you for your encouragement!
oh gosh that's so awesome. he is amazing and efficient!
I just wanted to thank you for allowing us into your life, I end up on bed rest a lot and you always brighten my day.
0:16 I love your blanket from home, Mary! And it isn't stamped with the words "Hospital Property" haha ;)
I love your paintings! And your husband is so cute and supportive.
+ The Frey Life keeping you in my prayers Mary for a quick recovery
Thanks!
How do you stay so positive You are truly an inspiration to me with my illnesses.
Beautiful vlog, many prayers to you Mary✨💛✨
i am so excited you put this up, on friday i will be doing this. i have wanted to since i was a child but never knew how.
That is so exciting!!!
You both bring me such joy x
#twinning!! I was also in the hospital yesterday connected to the blood pressure monitor, heart monitor, and oxygen. Lol. It was for a migraine though because they were infusing me with toradol, magnesium, two bags of saline, and zofran. Thank God for zofran.. it's a life saver. I was extremely dehydrated yesterday so I ended up at the er. We ended up leaving at 5am. Long, tiring night. Resting today. I've got chronic migraines and many other chronic illnesses. But i always make the best of it and watching you guys every helps so much with staying positive!! And Mary and Peter, you get some rest too!
Love the paintings! All three, A+++++++++ ❤️
You know how they say that dogs start to look like their owners after a while? Well, Ollie is starting to have a resemblance to Peter! I swear they have some of the same facial expressions and I mean that in the nicest way! I hope you start feeling better, Mary. I've spent a lot of months in hospital and it can be so boring. Painting is a great past-time and you are so talented. God bless!
I love art because it is all portable to create anywhere. I am recovering from my dental surgery to remove a cracked molar. He had to take it out surgically in two parts and we broke the filling in the tooth beside and a sliver of my jaw again. Watching this is so wonderful! Love you guys! 😁😘💞💖🐬🐋
I hope your recovery goes as smooth as possible! We will keep you company..in video form :)
The Frey Life aww thanks Mary! I am sure it will heal up well. Tricky thing is my immune system can't fight off a simple infection so I am going to have to be extra careful. Plus it slows my healing time. I have you to keep me company, an adorable cat, a cute snake to kiss it better and an awesome boyfriend. Can't go wrong with that! XO. Hope your hospital stay isn't too long.
its so great you're promoting sponsoring children. very awesome
I think it's amazing what can be done when people show love and kindness to others :) Thanks for your encouragement!
Mary, I have a very special request, if you wouldn't mind. A Christmas Ollie with his red coat/vest painting would be awesome! I think it would be a hit.
My old youth group use to sponsor a child through world vision. We would do the 30 hour famine and collect money to put towards our child and it was really great so it's really cool that you guys are also doing that
Oh that's awssome!
you are so talented! Great painting. :)
We sponsor two twins named Fabricia and Fabiana in Brazil through World Vision also! They are 10 years old on December 5th. It such an amazing opportunity and I enjoy seeing pictures and letters on how we helping them.
That is awesome! They are about to have a birthday, and how neat that they have friends across the world to celebrate with them!
I also love my cream with a dash of coffee so no judgments here! Enjoy the things you love, all things considered, there are plenty of worse options then coffee! Hope you feel better Mary. Peter your truly a blessing!
Also Mary those W&N half pan watercolors are my favorite go to ones!
Me too Meggie. DD laughs when I order it!
That looks amazing your a good painter
