A New Start

I love doing this piece. It is so pretty. I intended it to go to Emmie at Love Quilts but she became an emergency and they won't be done by May 5 so they will go to any child in honor of Emmie.

It's been a great week weather wise. But today will be the last day of our 70 degress. Tomorrow it goes back to reality 40's and 50's for a few days which is more seasonal.

Tomorrow is my Mom's Birthday, Michelle's 1st wedding anniversary, and we hope Heather's baby will be born. It's her due date. So we are going to be hoping and praying all day tomorrow that baby comes. Heather said if the baby isn't here by May 3 they'll induce her. Hopefully it won't come to that. Today is Heather's last day of teaching for the year. She says if the baby isn't here she's going to do a lot of housecleaning next week. Maybe I should have her come here and clean my apartment. Heather is a spotless housekeeper. I'd rather stitch then clean house although my apartment isn't that bad and is easy to keep up with, just little things I neglect.

Well until next time Happy Stitching!

Finally a Finish

I never thought I would finish this as I didn' enjoy it at all. But my mom and sister told me I had to finish it. They liked the piece. I don't know why I didn't enjoy it. I got to the point of just working on it an hour or two a day until I saw the finish in site and finished it off. This will go to Kate at Love Quilts who Chose Chrisitan as theme of her quilt. Now it's back to Love Isn't Love Until Given Away.

Whiskeres wants me off the computer-he's trying to get between me and the screen. so until next time Happy Stitching!

What? Earthquake felt in MI?

Oh yes! We do feel them once in a great while. This morning was no exception. My cat started getting hyper about 5:30. A few minutes later I felt small shaking and wondered. Got up a little later and turned on the news and Yep, there was an earthquake in S. IL and we felt the tremors here, some 300 miles or so from the epic center. There was no damage or anything around here.

I went to my sister's this past week and was gone 4 nights and days. It was great though. I even got some stash I'm so excited about. I can't wait to do them for Love Quilts. So I haven't fallen off the wagon yet! My mom and sister found a used book store next door to the LNS so they were happy too. I hadn't been to a LNS in years as we don't have any around here so I was extremely happy. I also spoiled my sister's dog as if he wasn't spoiled already.

Sunday we met my niece her husband and my nephew for breakfast, then we went to my nieces for a little bit and then went to her shower. They have pretty much everything they need for their baby now. Since no one knows the sex yet everything is pretty much generic. There were so many showers for her, some surprise ones, like our family had a shower and his family, where they work they had a shower. Both are teachers at the same school. Heather's Bible Study group gave her a surprise shower, and the kids in both of their class rooms gave them a surprise shower. That meant a lot to them. The kids put their money together and got them a real nice multipurpose playpen. From the shower by Brian's family we went to Kay's house. It was really a nice time.

Now I did take my stitching and got some accomplished on In the Garden, and Noah's Ark, but I left it at my sister's house with my meds, and a few other things, so my sister is going to mail them to me. Hopefully I'll get them Monday if she mails them today. When I got home from my sister's Whiskers greeted me at the door and basically I haven't been out of his site then. He's been taking in all the attention he can get.

I got out Love Isn't Love piece to do more work on it. I don't have my hoop but I have everything else so I will get progress done on it. This is progress as of this morning.

Well until next time, Happy Stitching!

Favorite finish of 2007

The stitching bloggers question of the week was What is your favorite finish of 2007? There were 3 or 4 that I really liked. Light Of Peace by Thomas Kinkaid, Tennis Anyone, (Kitten with tennis ball that was so cute), and Pigeon Point Lighthouse. But I chose Navajo Valley as my favorite finish. It just was so much fun to stitch and I really was pleased with it. People tell me it looks like the actual site. The piece went to Love Quilts.

I will be gone for a few days, so I'll hopefully have In the Garden done when I get back. I didn't get any comments on that piece. But it didn't bother me as I don't really like that piece. Now if I liked it I'd be whinning about it.

I so enjoy going to the different blogs. Sometimes I get jealous as their blogs are so nice and some people have a great way with words, and they get so many comments so I know I'm not alone in appreciating them. I do try to comment on blogs but sometimes I don't. I think lately I've spent more time reading blogs than stitching.

I have Noah's Ark all kitted up to start tomorrow so will get that going so I can do it in the car when traveling Sunday and Wed. I have so many pieces on my list to do between now and Aug. that I'm excited about and the two I have going aren't holding my interest. You ever have that happen? I would just go do them, except these two are commited to Love Quilts. I'm hoping Noah's Ark will excite me. Well, Until then Happy Stitching!

In The Garden

I started this about 10 days ago to take a break from Love Isn't Love.... For some reason it was hard to get into this piece. I'm still not enjoying it but it's going better now. I hope to have it done over the weekend. I'll start Noah's Ark on Saturday, kit it up tomorrow. This piece will go to a teenage girl at Love Quilts who chose Christian as theme of her quilt.

Sunday I'm going to my sister's house for a few days. We'll go to my niece's baby shower and then head to Kay's house. My brother and his girlfriend will be coming over every day to spend some time with my cat and make sure he has food water, and clean kitty litter. I always hate to leave Whiskers but he'll be fine he always is he knows I'll be back.

Once the Noah's Ark piece gets underway on Sat. it'll be an easy piece to do at my sister's and in the car. I'll take the Love Isn't Love piece too.

I signed up for two more Love Quilts children due Aug. 1. One had Flowers as theme of her quilt. The other day I bought a beautiful flower book, they were the perfect size for the LQ squares so I bought it for that purpose. So I haven't fallen off the wagon! The little boy chose Wild West so I'm doing half of Monument Valley by John Clayton for his. I'll do the half with the silouette horse on it. Boy I hope I didn't over commit myself. I need to get more serious about stitching. The last couple of weeks I've slacked off and read blogs instead.

I do enjoy reading all the blogs. I am amazed at how many different patterns there are and how few are really repeated on different blogs. Well until next time Happy Stitching!

Peaceful Thoughts

I loved doing this piece. I needed to take a break from In the Garden and the Horse piece. For some reason I just can't get into them, and need to take breaks. Oh well....as long as they are done by June 1, it'll be fine. This is finish #13 towards the 50 mark. Last year I had 21 done, then had to start over a couple of times since then. I guess you are suppose to have 50 done in a year, that will never happen. In fact I restarted last summer and at this rate it'll take a little over 2 years to hit 50. I'm doing good at not buying more patterns and using what I have. A strong desire to see my credit card shrink is great motivation not to buy any more patterns. I have enough material for now. In fact this piece was done on a scrap piece of material. I will have this made into a pillow and give it as a gift. I think it would be so pretty.

It is so nice out today. I opened my windows and letting the fresh air in. Dare I hope we have seen the last of the snow? Even if it is forecasted later this week but will not last as the high for that day will be upper 40's.

Ruth's funeral was large and beautiful. So many people were there. Plus something I had never seen done before and I'm not sure I could do it myself, they had a tape of songs she was singing. Ruth had recorded them for her funeral as a testimony of her faith.

Last Sunday was my niece's baby shower. It was small but fun. We don't have too many family members around here. Next Sunday his family is having one,so my mom and I are going to that one and then going to my sister's from there for a couple of days. It'll be nice just to get away.

Well, until next time Happy Stitching!

Love Isn't Love Till You Give It Away

This is progress after 40 hours of stitching. It will go to Love Quilts Any Child Farm Quilt. I am enjoying this piece. Typical of Stoney Creek it is detailed and has a lot of backstitching but that doesn't bother me. It's from a very old Stoney Creek Book called "Love Spoken Here."

Dare I hope today will be our last day of 30's. Plus the sun will be out! Next few days will be 40's and a couple even 50's unless they change them as they are middle and end of the 7 day forecast.

An update on Ruth here. Her journey on earth is over. On Wed. March, 26, at 10:50 a.m.Ruth went to be with the Lord. Most of her family was with her, They had spent Tuesday night with her holding her hand, telling her they loved her, reading from the Bible and singing songs to her. She died with them singing her favorite hymn to her "How Great Thou Art." Beautiful homegoing for Ruth but so hard for her family.

Boy I hope our church looks better on Tuesday. I was there yesterday to work in the food pantry and it was a mess... Our windows desparately needed replaced and we also are getting air conditioning in our auditorium. The windows were so old that some would not shut all the way so it snowed inside. Plus we lost a lot of heat through those windows. So the windows are out with boards covering them and the basement is all full of the electrical supplies. I'm sure the workers are being asked not to be around on Tuesday. This funeral is going to be a big one. I guess it's at our church because she grew up there and her parents probably really wanted it. Ruth and John went to another really large church that they both worked at. Ruth as a teacher at the school and I'm not sure what John did. Plus people from their supporting churches will come and from their Mission Headquarters. Ruth and John were missionaries to Spain. She will be missed as she impacted a lot of lives.

Sunday we are having a Baby Shower for my niece, Heather. Her baby is due the end of April on our mom's birthday. So I say the baby has to be born either on mom's birthday or May 1. May 1 isn't too far from her due date. I said May as no one in our family has a birthday in May so we can have one.

Well until next time Happy Stitching!

Ruth's Quilt

Here are a couple of pictures one is of backside of the quilt and the other is top side. The quilter at the point of the pictures had not put the waves in and it wasn't sewn together yet. But you have the idea what it looked like. It was beautiful and Ruth and John really liked it. The squares were done by different members of Cross Stitching for Charity. Barb (Barb's Stitches in my blog roll)and a friend of hers did the quilting and sewed the quilt together. It was beautiful. The waves hitting the Lighthouses aren't there but on the finished quilt really added to it. Everything blended together so well. And they got it done very quickly as we just didn't have a whole lot of time to get the quilt to Ruth as we don't know how much longer she'll live.

How was everyon'e Easter? Mine was nice and noisy. With all the kids around but it was fun. Of course my brother's dog thought he was King of the day as the kids chased him around outside and he loved it. He liked seeing everyone. This dog was rescued from a very abusive home. When my brother and sister-in-law first got him he just shook whenever he saw people and he was nothing but skin and bones. Now he greets people and has filled up. His days of being abused are long behind him.

I'm working on a farm square for Love Quilts Farm Quilt for any child. It's from an old Stoney Creek Book called Love Spoken Here. The piece is a horse in a barn being fed apples from a child and a couple of roosters eating seeds. Now the horse is done it should go quicker. It took forever to get the horse done. I'll post a picture in the next day or two.

Until next time Happy Stitching!

Patriotic Finish

I just finished this a few moments ago. It really was a quick stitch. I started it yesterday afternoon and finished it today. It only took about 6 hours to stitch.

It's been a very busy week around here with something going every day. In fact I was gone a little bit this morning and will leave again in about 20 minutes. I'm going with Ruth's mother to deliver her quilt. I better remember my camera so I can take pictures. It was done by ladies at Cross Stitchers for Charity. Which is where this Patriotic square will go. They wanted squares fit for a teenage girl so I thought this ws cute. The piece I wanted to do I started months ago and can't find it. Oh well....

We had a snow storm last night. We didn't get hit as hard as most areas but harder than what we were expecting. Here our snow was almost all gone. Thbis will melt over the next few days.

Anyone have plans for Eastser? I'm going to my brother's house. My parents are going out to eat and another brother will be with his girlfriend so Kevin and Beth asked me to their place. There will be lots of other people there but I get along with Beth's family really good so it'll be fine. I'll get to see Johnny.

We had two birthdays this past week, Melissa turned 27 and Ashton turned 5. Big birthday for the little guy and he was more interested in his new helicopter my brother got him than cake and ice cream. We made the mistake of giving him his presents first.

My brother is moving into an apartment in the same complex I'm in. I'll be able to bug him a lot. And in return I'll be walking his dog.

Well have a Happy Easter everyone and until next time Happy Stitching!

Precious Moments Finish

I finished this about an hour ago. It will go to Carly V. at Love Quilt. I love the color blue so chose this piece. Plus little girls do like Princesses. Carly chose Precious Moments as theme of her quilt.

Tomorrow our SS class is having a chilli cook off. The hostess is making the chilli but asked the rest of us to bring corn bread. Correction I have to make my 7 layer bars so I need to get them made later this afternoon or early tomorrow morning. We had a game day not to long ago and I had the nerve not to bring them so I have to bring them tomorrow. Glad everyone likes them. I'm not a big fan of them, they are too rich for me.

Remember my Lighthouse square I did a few months ago. That is being quilted up now. At one of my groupls I'm in they asked if anyone wanted a certain quilt. I said yes, I had a friend coming to the end of her cancer battle. She isn't getting that quilt but the ladies wanted her to have one of our own quilts. Three were coming to a close. Because Ruth grew up on shores of Lake Michigan I thought she'd like the Lighthouse quilt best. I knew Ruth from time she was born, her older brothers and sister were same age as my sister, brother, and I. She was same age as my youngest brother. Ruth and John were missionaries to Spain. They had to come home a couple of years ago as Ruth got diagnosed with cancer. She did go into remission and was able to return to Spain for about a year. Then last summer the cancer came back so they came back home, hoping to return to Spain in Dec. Unfortunately they have tried 3 different treatments and nothing worked. A couple of weeks ago they were going to start a fourth treatment but her lungs filled with fluid. Her cancer had spread to rib cage and liver. So there really isn't much hope for her which is heartbreaking. Her father has Parkinson's and her mother has been taking care of him. All of this is hard for her but she says everyone praying for her is holding her up she feels the prayers. The family has meant a lot to the people in our church for years. They would do anything for anyone and if a visitor came, they welcomed them into their home.
One of the group memembers (Cross Stitchers for Charity) and a friend of hers are finishing the quilt this week and will mail it to Ruth's parents hopefully Monday. The group wants her to have it by Easter. It was going to be mailed to me but Ruth isn't doing well, I felt it best just to have it go to her parents and have her mom deliver it. If Ruth is up to seeing me, I'll go with her. She's in a lot of pain right now. When the quilt is done, I'll post a picture of it here. I've seen a picture of the top of it and it's beautiful.
Now this PM piece is done I'm just going to do a small Patriotic piece, then possibly start another Endangered Younguns piece, or one of the other ones. Yesterday I went to the Dr. because of neck and head pain. The Dr. felt it was more from stitching too much and said to take a break. I informed him I had too many squares due to be able to take a break. So he said just move around every half hour then and stay on the motrin in you have to. He was more concearned about Hypertension on me as my blood pressure goes up and down and has been up, so he gave me a prescription for that. I don't know why I really have no tension that I can't deal with. Oh well...
Guess what our weather is getting better although they say we aren't done with the snow, most of it is melting. It's been 40's most of this week 50 today. Tomorrow will be upper 30's but we can deal with it. Spring is coming!

Well until next time Happy Stitching!
Well until next time Happy Stitching

Precious Moments Start

This is progress after 28 hours of stitching. I am doing this for a little girl at Love Quilts who has Precious Moments as theme of her quilt.

My sister was in town this past week. We did some shopping. Plus she chose a baby piece for me to do for her daughter Heather. The baby is due end of next month! In fact it's due on our mom's birthday. So I said either the baby can be born April 26 (due date) or May 1 as no one in our family has a birthday in May. I don't want her to go to far over as she has a really bad back. So guess what my next piece will be. I don't think I'm going to get the Owl done. I just have a head start for the next child that wants Realistic Birds. Besides the boy the owl was going to go to really wanted Eagles and Hawks and that is what came in for him so the Owl would be out of place.

I think spring might be coming. It's cold today in the 20's but sun is out so not bad. Tomorrow and Monday is 30's then a few days next week 40's before going back to 39. But we'll take it. We missed 2 big snow storms as we were just a little too far north for them. We felt bad for those who got it but didn't shed any tears that we didn't get it.

Well, until next time Happy Stitching!

The Lion is Finished

This is finish #11. I worked hard on it to get it done today. I'll put it in the mail Monday or Tuesday.

I can't believe the sun is out today and tomorrow is suppose to be 40's. Then back to 30's. Some snow in forecast but we'll deal with it.

Tonight we have our last night of Common Grounds until June. Because we are going to have a Blended/Temporary Service on Sundays starting March 30 we won't have Common Grounds every month. (We're going to have 2 services on Sunday mornings, 1 Blended Traditional and other Blended Temporary). I need to go back over my Missionary Story for tonight. I wrote out the script for the Bible Story tonight is a shorter one then usual but the Missionary Story is longer.

Next week my sister is coming back to town but it'll be her last time for awhile. Her daughter's baby is due end of April so she's saving her personal days for after the baby is born. This will be her first grand child so she's anxious.

Well until next time Happy Stitching!

Didn't quite get it done

Hopefully it will be done tomorrow. I've been spending entirely too much time on this piece. I'm a little disappointed it didn't get done but oh well, that's life. I'm blogging on Feb. 29 so that's my compromise.

I'm sort of glad to see Feb. gone. I'm not shedding any tears over it. It was our snowiest Feb. ever only about 2 days did we have no snow. Today's not one of them. It snowed really good. Unfortundately we are suppose to get more snow in the coming days. So maybe mid March it will be nice a little more often. We'll see. This winter has made me think those who go south for the winter are smart, not chicken. Wish I could have joined them.` The older I get the less I like winter.
I'm with the little girl at church who decided to wear Spring clothes hoping to push Spring in quicker. Our Adventure Club kids are getting cabin fever we can tell as they are so restless at Adventure Club. I even changed my template so it was lighter not so dark, make it more spring like.

Tomorrow we have Common Grounds, we are changing it to every 3 months now instead of every month as we are going to start a Contemporary Service the end of March on Sundays. Hopefully that will go over good and our church will grow.

Well, until next time Happy Stitching!

Update on The Lion

This piece is moving along quite fast. I am really pleased and hope to finish it up on Friday. Feb. 29 only comes once every 4 years, and I didn't have a finish last time, so maybe this year. If it goes as well as it is then I should get it done. Besides I have a lot of other pieces I am anxious to get going on.

I just went over towards my stitching chair and there was Whiskers starting to make himself comfortable in it. He was sitting on the back of it while I stitched. He was waiting to make his claim to the chair I guess and here I thought he wanted to be with me.

Today we made a trip out to JoAnne's to get some floss. I wanted to find a Noah's Ark pattern for a quilt we are doing in a Yahoo Group I'm in. But didn't find a pattern. Wendy (my brother's friend and my niece's mother long story) talked me into buying a coloring book and graph paper and do an animal that way. So I did. But I did find a Noah's Ark pattern to use in my own stash, and will use the pattern from the coloring book as my second piece for the quilt.

Well until next time Happy Stitching!

Anoth New Start and I've been tagged

I had to lay down the Owl as this square is actually due 2 weeks before the Owl besides I needed a break from the Owl. Maybe you can tell, this is another Endangered Young'uns, this is The Lion. It's going pretty good and I love doing it. It really is a nice break from The Owl. I have 2 more Endangered Young'uns to do maybe 3 or 4 more, depending on if we go with Noah's Ark theme for the quilt we are doing at Every Stitch Counts for Love Quilts. More on that when the time comes.
I got tagged by Teresa to say 7 wierd things about myself. So here it goes:
1) The older I get the pickier I am about food.
2) The older I get the more fearful I am of stupid things like crossing a busy highway even at the light, or getting on an elevator.
3) I do not drive.
4) I do not like Ice Cream
5) I do not like Steak
6) I love seeing the icicles melt away from the roof and deck.
7) I get excited to see the sun rise earlier each morning and go down later each night.

Well that's my seven things, I am certifiable I know. I'm not going to tag anyone but if you want to do your own list go ahead.

Well, until next time Happy Stitching!

Okay so #7

Finish #10

I enjoyed doing this quick easy piece. As much as I love doing the Owl, which I will pick back up in a few minutes, this piece had more color in it.

Today is so nice out. Yesterday was icy and dreary, today the sun is melting the sun. The temps are suppose to drop all day, and the next couple of days cold then we'll hit the 20's and 30's at end of week. Alright!

We had 4 birthdays between Feb. 5, and 17, my niece, Tabi, on the 5th, nephew, Caleb on the 9th, brother Kevin, the 15th, and nephew Andrew on the 17th. We seem to have our birthday's in bunches. Although we do have a stray one in March, and a couple in April where there are at least 2 weeks between each of the 3. If my niece Heather doesn't have her baby on mom's birthday then I hope she has it May 1. We don't have any May birthdays.

Sat. our class sponsored a game afternoon at church. We had so much fun. Quite a few of us played Boulderdash. I had never played that game before. But it was so fun coming up with a definition to match the word you never heard of. Then you had to guess the right definition. I loved it!

Thank you for your comments to the Owl so far, I love seeing this piece come to life and is so much fun to stitch. It's actually going easier and quicker than I expected.

Well, guess I'll go and go to stitching on the Owl. Until next time Happy Stitching.

Start on Owl

I laid down The Caretaker for a couple of months. I need to get some pieces done for Love Quilts (all are animals). This one is for an Emergency Quilt. The boy will be 14 in April and has bone cancer. He had a couple of surgeries this past week and isn't doing very well. His quilt is Masculine Birds with a Scripture verse. He mostly wanted Eagles and Hawks, unfortunately I didn't have them but did find this Owl that was accepted for the quilt. I just need to find a scripture verse. The one I want to use I'm not sure goes with the owl.

Today is a beautiful day outside. It's so pretty to look out at all the snow, and it's not that cold, (upper 20's low 30's today). It snowed some earlier. We have well over a foot on the ground so a little snow is annoying even. Sunday a major storm is to come in. Figures so we'll see if there is church or not. We had it last Sunday.

The other day I took my parents dog for a walk, poor little girl, the snow was so far over her head we could only go where it was shoveled or a well worn path. She looks like a princes prancing through that snow. It's so cute.

Well until next time Happy Stitching!

One more Update

Before laying this piece down. I'm going to start an Emergency Quilt square for Love Quilts tomorrow. Then I'll need to do some other squares for them, so this piece is getting laid down for awhile. It was going well so it won't be hard to pick back up. The picture isn't the greatest as I didn't get it as flat on the table I thought I had.

It is snowing again today. We need to be careful, it won't be long and we'll need plows on our cars to even move around. Winter has hit us with a vengence this year. The cold temperatures aren't helping either as they can't salt the roads, it's too cold. And schools have been closed several days the last 3 weeks. Spring is coming some day. But right now it seems like a long time from now.

More Progress on The Caretaker

I have a total of 280 hours of stitching on this piece now and this is progress as of this morning. I have almost 5 pages done. Right now I plan to stitch on it another week to 10 days before laying it down to do another Endangered animal piece.

Our weather has been up and down these last few weeks. It may be nice one day and the next a winter storm blows in. The snow is beautfiul to look at as long as you are on inside looking out. I walked my parents dog the other day and she sort of galloped like a horse through the snow yet looked like a little Princes. The snow is actually deeper than what she is tall, but she seems to like to prance through the snow when it's nice out. When it's nasty, no, she does what she has to and is right back inside again.

Last night was our first meeting of the Evangelism Board at church. And oh boy, we have a lot of work to do, but it's going to be fun and exciting to see God at work. Pastor is in charge of it this year, and he sort of remapped the role of the Evangelism Board to include Outreach as well as Missions instead of just Missions. I'm excited to see what will happen in future. I was elected Secretary so I took good notes I hope.

I love my new bed. I've had very little trouble getting use to it. I sleep so much better on it. It also is much easier to make in the morning as it is higher up and makes my room look so much better!

Thank you for reading my blog and for your comments. I really appreciate them. Well until next time Happy Stitching.

Update on The Caretaker

First I want to thank you for your comments to my chocolate piece.
The Caretaker is moving along sort of slow right now. I think I'm going to have to frog a little at the bottom as I discovered I made a mistake. Hopefully not too much will have to come out. It'll be Monday before I really get back into stitching it seriously as between now and then I'll be gone a lot. Because of the business of the next 3 days, I'll just work on Winter Frost (which is appropriate for now), pick up The Caretaker on Monday.

My sister came into town yesterday. (The one "nice" day we had this week.) By saying nice, I mean at least you could drive without too many problems if you were careful. We've been hit by a few storms. The kids must be enjoying their No school days, but wait until they have to make them up in June, see how they enjoy them. Anyway we were lucky we didn't get hit by last night's storm, but areas south of us sure did. It is snowing some here, but not like other areas.

When my sister got to town yesterday, she took me to Sleep Doctor to get me a mattress, box spring and frame. Mine are 30 years old and is slanted a little so I really needed a new one. Her husband decided since I was the only one in our family outside of our parents who hadn't asked them for anything they should get me something I really need. Toss up between a new chair or mattress, my sister decided I needed the mattress more. So I picked a set out yesterday and it is coming today. They should call in about a half hour and let me know when they are coming. I hope it's early. I'm looking forward to crawling into bed tonight, not having to be careful or worry about the bed landing on my cat. I'm sure Whiskers will try the bed out first though. That salesman was so funny when he found out I had a cat he put on paper "Beware of Bobcat" I told him I was writing on it he was a 7 pounder but he said it was still going in his computer as a Bobcat! I hope he was joking!

After they come and set my bed up I'll take off to my parents house. We were going to go shopping today but the weather is not the best plus now I have to wait for my mattress to come, we'll probably just play games at my parents. My sister will clean their house this morning (something we planned to do tomorrow. Guess I got out of that LOL!) But I cleaned my own place this morning. I even have my laundry going.

Sunday I'm going to a birthday party for a cute little 1 year old at church. Usually you don't go all out for a first party. But the mother is from the Phillipines, and I wonder if it is custom in the Phillipines to have a 1st birthday. The baby is so cute though, outside of Johnny, he's my favorite baby. Of course Johnny is #1.

Well I've rambled enough. Have a safe warm weekend everyone. Until next time Happy Stitching.
