A Great Buy!!!

So, my Mother-n-law needed me to go to Old Time Pottery to look for some aprons for her. Even though they sold out, the trip was not a flop. I got a great buy that was tucked away in a corner in the back of the store. This mirror is 30 by 40 and I got it for $19.99.

I love it when I find a great bargin. Now the question is,

what am I going to do with this?

Hang it in a bathroom, my living room or change the trim and sell it.

So many things to think about.

Back in Business

Heh, I am back in business.

I have worked hard this week-end getting everything set up

but it was worth it. I am now able to get back to craftin...

My daughter and I made these pendents late last night.

These are so easy to do and fun,

take a look....

This one actually has a tan color to it but the picture didn't come out just right.

I made this one since our home town is the Collinsville Cardinals.

Can't wait to wear it during football season.

I love red, so of course I had to make one with the color red.

I got a feeling we will be making alot more of these......

Mother's Day

Happy Mothers Day to all the special moms that has touched my life

Getting set up

Well, I am almost done with getting my craft area set back up. It has been a chore!!!
I have so many projects just running around in my head that I am about to explode.
I will be so glad to get back to craftying!!

Work Area Makeover

I promise that I will be posting about new craft projects when I am able to get everything back to normal with my work space. I have had to move everything to a new location, which yes is better for me, but alot of work getting it done. So as soon as everything is done I will start posting my, hopefully, creative work.

Getting Back To The Pace Of Life

Well, everything is getting back to normal for me. Since last Tuesday, things have been non stop with getting everything done for my Grandpa's funeral and helping my Dad. It's now Wednesday of this week and I am finally caught up with home and work.

The funeral was wonderful. My cousin Rick did a wonderful job.
It just makes you look at yourself and were you stand in your life when you lose someone.
I thank God that he has blessed me in so many ways.
Until next time.....

My Grandpa

Today, I lost a special person in my life that I will never forget. My Grandpa.

He is my father's father.

He was a man who had alot of character and loved his family very much.

Growing up, he had a very hard life and taught us all how to be survivers. He was a man that could still drive his car and live as an independent person. He lived to be 97 years old and went to be with the Lord on April 22, 2009, in his sleep.

Thank you Grandpa for being the man you were (you are).

This is the last picture that was taken of him with some of his Grandchildren and Great Grandchildren. We always have a family reunion in March to celebrate my Grandpa's Birthday.

Thank you Grandpa for giving us all life.
