I love and appreciate every gift I received for my birthday, because I know that each one came from people I love, who love me, and wanted to make my day special. Today, I want to show you a gift I received from my mother-in-law. Calling it a “gift” doesn’t do it justice…it was a labor of love. She’s made each of her grandchildren and her daughter a handmade quilt, with designs in the blocks that represent something they love. {Read More}

Normally, I like to share a “theme” for Thursday, of projects I worked on throughout the week, but I’m still finishing up a few of them, so I have another project I finished last week to show you instead. It has a bit of a tear-jerker story to go with it though, so have your tissues in hand. I don’t usually think of myself as a possession-crazed person, but I admit that even though I know you can’t take things {Read More}

Merry Christmas, one and all! May God bless you and your family richly. I’d like to share one more antique graphic for Christmas with you all.

The banner behind the image has a portion of a Bible passage on it.  This page is a little tattered, but given it is104 years old, it’s {Read More}

I think one of my very favorite parts of the Christmas season is Christmas plays, and musicals.  Although I love seeing well-rehearsed productions, I adore church plays with lots of little kids. When you have a stage full of little kids, funny things can and will happen, regardless of how much they practiced or how much hair their director has pulled out of her head for the last few months trying to get them ready. My youngest son is in {Read More}

Remember this sweet old pooch that is a trash raider? Remember, I told you not to let her sweet, old lady face fool you, because even though she’s missing a front leg, she’s still pretty darn spry for her age? Well…you can feel sorry for her now. Apparently during the night, she decided to chase after coyotes (because she doesn’t seem to realize that a) she’s getting old and b) she only has 3 legs. Unfortunately, she didn’t catch any {Read More}
