Quote of the Week!

'Be instant in season, out of season...' 2 Timothy 4:2

'The season does not refer to time, but to us--'be instant in season, out of season', whether we feel like it or not. If we do only what we feel inclined to do, some of us would do nothing for ever and ever. The proof that we are rightly related to God is that we do our best whether we feel inspired or not. '
~O. Chambers

Blast from the Past

Darya, Brynn, Bride-to-be Chrissy, Me

This past Friday I went to my friend Chrissy's bridal shower. I was able to

catch up with my neighborhood, childhood friends which we used to spent just about everyday together,

and it was just great being back together again!!

I was also able to cater some of the food for the shower, which I was thrilled to do.

Cant wait til the wedding!

Darya and I

One for old times sake!! ;)

'As for God, his way is perfect;'

2 Samuel 22:31a

In Memory Of

Call it cheesy, corny, dorky, whatever..But I thought this was a good way to remember Abbi; due to the fact that we couldnt have a proper burial, I wanted to do something. Although we might still bury her collar.

Heart to Heart

This is the wallhanging(or quilt) I've been working on. I'm not sure where exactly I will put it, as it doesnt match my room. Another addition for the hope chest, I guess. (It's getting a little full.)
My Auntie Diane was so gracious as to hold a few classes for some ladies at church that wanted to learn how to quilt! (Thanks!) It was alot of fun! I'm almost done, I just need to quilt 5 more hearts and stitch the edging.
It's nice to be able to do things like sewing. Not many women sew anymore. It's quite sad come to think of it. When you tell someone you sew, they look at you like you're an alien and think you're incredible!! It cracks me up! I'd like to do my part to keep some old 'past times' alive, and my brain active. Now I need to tackle the quilt I've been working on for the last 3 years!!! Hopefully there will be a picture of that on here soon too. I'm really excited about that one. Stay tuned!

Hello, these were my new roomies for the last 2 weeks while I've been house sitting. They are so much fun! And they are both very sweet-haha. ;) Kandi is a Giant Schauzer-dont let her size fool you, she's a big teddy bear!-and Muffin is a Westy Terrier.
