Beautiful Day!!!

I haven't been out in it much, yet, but will soon!  Finally after days of cloudy and chilly, an awesome day!  Think we all needed this to lift our spirits.  I think God gives us those days, so we'll really appreciate these sunny days!  I've still been in the creative mode, but with the nicer weather I can see me wanting to be outside in my flowerbeds. Another one of my favorite things is working with my flowers and yard, so creating may be put on hold any day now.

New Stuff

Thinking Of You Greeting Card

Birthday Greeting Cards


All Occasion Cards




In The Pink Apron 



Bible Cover

I've had a lot of fun designing and making the cards!  I really can't call it work, because I enjoy it so much.  I get so involved in it that the afternoon is gone before I know it, and I've enjoyed searching out cute materials for my sewing projects.  This may be a good pass time for when we get those hot summer days, and they will come before we know it!

Is This Really February?

Amazing!!
Well, one thermometer said 77 and the other 80, but either way, WOW!! What a change from a couple of weeks ago.  Have gone from using the heater full blast to stripping comforters off the bed.  I hear that we might get back to February weather next week, but I'm enjoying today, opening windows and a much needed car wash!

Valentine's Day & A Few A New Things!

Goodies From Hubby & Kids
Valentine's day has a special meaning to me because it is also the day that Bob and I got married in Las Vegas in a little Baptist church 21 years ago.  He said he planned it that way, so he would just have to remember it all on one day!  It was the first time I had ever flown in an airplane and the farthest I had been from Oklahoma was Colorado, Kansas, and Missouri.  Quite a trip for a little old small town gal, But we had a blast!
Bible Cover



New Prints Tater Bags
Been surfing the net and found a cute pattern for a bible cover, so decided to give it a try.  It has a pocket inside for a couple of pencils and will fit a 9x14 inch bible.  I found these cute prints recently at Hobby Lobby (my favorite store) and thought they would make cute tater bags.  My tater bags now have a new kind of batting in them by The Warm Company that is supposed to be safer for heating and insulating the bags.

 These are a few of the projects I have worked on this winter. I am renewing my interest in sewing and crocheting that was put on hold all the years that I worked.  I am finding that I never have time to be bored with the many things that I love to do!!!  I love working on small projects that can be completed in a day or an afternoon.

Wow!!! Have You Ever Felt Lost???

Well, that's how I feel right now!  I am trying to get my blog page set up and am finding out that I am not as computer literate as I thought I was.  They say though that it is good to learn new things to keep the brain fog from setting in, and I need all the help I can get there!  Thank goodness,  I have a daughter-in-law who is very much computer literate,  and can help me out. 
That picture above is my view from my west window on South 14th.  Pretty to look out at, but not so much fun if you have to be out in it.  I Am really looking forward to next week when they say we will have some spring like temperatures, and we can quit layering our clothes to keep warm!
I was blessed this morning to get to spend time with my two precious little guys, Hunter and Winston.  They warm me up to paraphrase Hunter.  Then the boys, Marshalene, and I met  papa at Taco Mayo for lunch.
