Nerf wars, a prize, and a rescue

Hello!~ I hope everyone is well and enjoying some nice weather! I hope all in Texas are safe!

Last weekend, my oldest grandson turned 8 - wow! Where have the years gone? But here are a couple pictures from the party last Sunday. Everyone brought Nerf guns and Jack had quite a few himself, so we were all running around outside like crazy people shooting each other! The yard looked like the Easter Bunny had a problem, LOL! And all of the kids had a blast, the little ones too!! Sadly, some of the pictures didn't "take" - I don't know what happened to them!

The birthday boy

his dad.....

and this is Uncle Sean having a shootout!

In this next pic, I'm related to all but one person.....

I didn't have the heart to tell him this was a family picture. Guess I just gained a new grandson, LOL!

The Counted Wishes Festival was a couple of weeks ago and I won a prize! It was from Sweetbriar Needle Design. I took a picture, but my camera has messed up. I got 2 free charts, "Stashaholic" and French Trees (you can see on their website) and a package came in the mail a few days later with a bead needle, a thread pick, a bobbin jig, and a beautiful silver "T" charm with a rhinestone! I love it all! Thanks SO much Sweetbriar!!!

Also just a week ago, my son found this dog running around out by his work, near a busy interstate. The poor baby! The vet thinks he is an American Bulldog mix, but he's really sweet! He is severely malnourished and has lost a lot of fur. His skin that was showing through was red and hot to the touch. My son and his wife are keeping him and they named him Rocky. He is doing much better while getting antibiotics and a steroid from the vet and a MUCH needed bath! He needs to gain some weight, but other than that, he checked out wonderful at the vet. No heartworm or anything!

I had other pictures of him, but they must have gone off with the other pictures I can't find. I will post more pictures of Rocky later as he improves. And, he is getting along GREAT with their little dog Lily and with my grandson. Wonderful!

Well, that's it for now. I'll be back in a few days with a new start and hopefully, I'll have my giveaway ready to go!

Newlyweds, birthday and 6 months

My "baby" got married yesterday!
L to R - Matt (best man) Tom, Robyn, and Tiffany (maid of honor)

My pictures didn't turn out very well but lots of others took some, so I'll get more from them soon.

And today is this one's birthday! Happy birthday Sean!


And on a sad note, today is the 6 month anniversary of my dad's passing. We sure miss you, dad!

A finish!

I had needed something simple and easy to stitch the last month or so and I finished it this past weekend. Dog Rules for People by Lizzie Kate. It is stitched on 32 ct. lambswool linen with the WDW and CC threads that came with it.


I'm not sure how I'm going to finish it. A pillow or totebag? I may frame it and give it to my youngest son and his family - they now have 7 dogs and 2 of them are pregnant!

My oldest grandson, Jack, turned 7 in March and his mom had a surprise birthday party for him this past Sunday. This is Jack hanging from his Uncle Sean's arm. So funny!

I tried to get a picture of all 4 of my grandsons at once, but they were not cooperative.

I started a new project a couple days ago and will have some progress pictures soon. The Hoosier Stitchers are having their spring retreat starting today and I'm going down for the day on Saturday. Can't wait! It's supposed to be warm that day and I'm riding with a couple others that are going down just for the day. I'm ready for a day of stitching and fun!!
