5: I have two boys and I have waited and waited for their eyes to turn brown, but I don't think they are going to.

Finished

I finished it today. I really like the way it turned out. Thanks Lewaina for the quilt piece and also thanks to my DH who helped me pick out out to stitch.

Whatcha Working on Wednesday

I decided to join Leslie on Whatcha working on Wednesday.
http://sweets-mycountryhome.blogspot.com/ It looked like so much fun.

Lewaina gave me this piece of old quilt. It was supposed to go on as a pocket on a bunny but I decided to frame it and add a little stitching to it. I plan on staining both pieces. I will post it when it is finished.

I just finished these fly covers when I decided to post them. I got the idea from Char over at the pickled pepper patch http://charsethman.blogspot.com/ They were really fun and easy to make.

Hope you enjoy and hope you have a great day Love you all Laura.

American Soldier

On Saturday we had a little family outing to the Hobie store, to spend some of our tax return:) While we were there three GI's came in wearing their camo. Sam looks at them and says really loud, "Those are bad guys." So David had to quickly explain that they weren't bad guys they were the good guys. And they said, "No, you must be watching the media." So then we continued shopping. Then a while latter they left and while they were leaving David told them thanks for the service they do. And the last guy turns around and takes one of his patches off of his uniform and hands it to Sam and says that he took that badge to Afghanistan. When we left David and I both had tears in our eyes.
It is funny I never thought that something like that would happen to us. I've always heard of things like this happening to other people, but never did I think it would happen to me. I hope that David and I can teach our children to respect and understand the great things that have happened.

Birthday money

Sam finally got to spend his birthday money. He was so excited.

Quote

"At the final day the Savior will not ask about the nature of our callings. He will not inquire about our material possessions or fame. He will ask if we ministered to the sick, gave food and drink to the hungry, visited those in prison, or gave succor to the weak. When we reach out to assist the least of Heavenly Father's children, we do it unto Him. That is the essence of the gospel of Jesus Christ." (Joseph B. Wirthlin, "the Great Commandment," Liahona, Nov 2007, 28-31)

I had my Visiting Teaching interview on Sunday. They gave me this quote, I thought I would Share it with you. Have a great day I love you all.
