Sunshine


It has been raining here for weeks, and today the sun came out. Unfortunately not for long though, as I type there is thunder in the background. Hopefully it is a short lived shower as the radar only shows this one cloud over us!!!!!!!!!!!! The quilt top above is my first quilt experience. I finished piecing it several weeks ago, but just getting around to posting. It is by far from perfect, but I am pleased with it. My aunt's mom is 95 years young, and she is going to help me with the quilting. I have the backing and the fabric for the back, now I just have to learn the hand quilting. I hope to do this this week or next.

While blogging this morning, I saw a wonderful post on one of my favorite blogs I visit http://emptynestfulllife.blogspot.com/ I have committed to her prayer request, and I hope ya'll will also. Our country is in desperate need of a lifting of GOD's word. Please join us in asking for this.

Summer is almost here, and my little one is so ready. He is counting down the days and hours until our recreation center pool opens. He is planning a wonderful summer of swimming, riding bikes, and playing hard with his friends. Today he and several of his buddies are off on there bikes---soon as he left the thunder started, but he is at a friends house waiting out the storm--retraction--he is on his way to the ice cream store--I may not survive this summer. I have forgotten how brave 10 year olds are!!!!!!!!

I must get off this computer and go to the grocery. I have planned a menu for this week, and I need to pick up a few things, so I am off to shopping. Hope ya'll have a great blessed weekend!! Take time to hug your loved ones and please pray for our country. Be safe, healthy, happy and may God bless ya'll!!!
