Things have been a little nuts!

Seems like its in the air, the more I talk to people the more I hear that people are

having rough weeks lately! Well ours have been mighty rough! Too rough to go in to,

lets just put it this way, satan is after us and we refuse to let him win! God has a plan!

So please if you find a spare minute in your day, we would appreciate all the prayers

we can get!

Here is a new layout I just did with a great technique I learned from Min over at

Scrap Friendzy!

I sure wish Min would send me her snail mail so I can mail her prizes! I have to mail

other stuff at the post office but am waiting to di it all in one trip!!!

HINT HINT MISS MIN! LOL

While I am on the subject of Raks! I found a great one for everyone to comment

to try to win! Just go visit the lovely blog of Kim Strother, LOVE-JOY-SCRAP

and leave a comment for a chance to win an awesome rak!

THe prize I am shipping out!

Just wanted to show everyone what Min has won!
I really hope she enjoys it all as much as I enjoyed shopping for it
and as much as I enjoyed painting it!

Just as a little by the way information, I make it a
practice when I paint a gift, that while I am painting the
gift, I pray for the person I am painting it for. Even if it ends
up being one I sell, I pray for whoever will get it someday/own it
someday. So Min prayers have gone up for you that you are
blessed and that God puts a hedge of protection around you
and your family. Just to mention a few of the prayers.

thanks to all who commented!

Golly Dylan is getting so big!

 
I got some really cute shots of Dylan today! He is growing so fast! Before I know it he will be walking! I just can't believe how time has flown! It is hard to believe such a happy baby has Cystic fibrosis! I pray his doctor is right that we are only about five years from a cure!!!

Tomorrow is the big day! My blog birthday!!! I will draw the winning name after nine pm eastern time so that everyone has a chance to post tomorrow too~

Okay I am a slacker! BUT THE BLOG CANDY IS STILL ON!

YEP I missed a few days! My son came to visit from S.C. and we helped my father in law moved out of the family home of 53 years this past weekend!
I am having a blog birthday on the 16th so remember to comment each day from now till then to enter for an entry for Blog candy! I promise it will be worth it! I am sending out a scrappy prize and including a handpainted gift!

Speaking of handpainted, I taught a class monday night and here is my piece! It is a Scrapbook album cover! I plan on using it for heritage pictures. Then I also finished a piece up on monday for my Secret Sister for Church. Cindy seemed to love the basket!


 
 
 

They grow up so very fast!

This was the boys coloring eggs for Easter! Golly it seems like yesterday that the oldest was a baby!

Please don't forget to keep commenting each day to earn entries into my blog candy drawing coming up on the 16th to celebrate the 4th birthday of my blog!!!

Dog Tired!

 
Yep, I missed several days! I have been so dogged tired! Finally gave in on Saturday and went to a walkin and had a major sinus infection! But the antibiotics have helped!

By the way Jack my little buddy in the picture was dog tired from chasing the kids while they looked for Easter Eggs on Easter Sunday! Wish I had gotten a picture of Jack with the "one HE found" and took off with! He thought it was a ball! LOL!
