Quote of the month...

"Standing tall is a very admirable thing. There are very few stories in history of heroes who slouched to the rescue. Likewise, most individuals don't look up to people who are drooped over."

My Batik has arrived!

After some nail-biting stressful weeks of wondering about the postal system, my batik fabric has finally arrived! Yeah! Latree was getting stressed about it not showing up, the postal service told her it would take 10 days! Well, I think they must have put the package on a slow boat instead of a fast plane! The letter is dated 3-28 and it finally got here 5-3! We were out playing in the mud on Saturday and they couldn't deliver it because I had to sign for it. I went to the post office on Monday bright and early to get it!Now the question is what shall I do with it?
The material is folded in the above photos.
Here it is all unfolded..... Scott didn't want Emmy to touch him and she kept kissing him, thus the grumpy face!Photo by Scott.Photo by EmmaLece.

52 Weeks of Blessings --Week 18--Rain

This week's blessing is..... Rain! We are finally getting some spring weather, warmer and some rain. I love the smell 'of earth right after rain'. Rain helps the plants to grow and turns the world green again! I love a soft gentle rain to go walking in! Rain also provides mud, and what kid doesn't enjoy playing in the mud?

Where's MY video?

EmmaLece didn't think it was fair that Scott had a movie posted and she didn't, so with our further adieu.......
