Loosing a dear blogger friend.

My heart has ached today as I have found out that we have lost one of our dear blogging friends.

Janice "Blackcreek Primitives"  . She was one talented lady and an awesome crafter.  We had

become friends through blogging. She was devoted to her family and loved them very much.

I see where her daughter has left a post, stating that Janice passed away unexpectedly this past Sat.

Jan. 21st.  My heart aches for her family, and we have lost a truly beautiful friend and talented

crafter.  I will miss you Janice!!!

Date Night

My husband and I went on a date friday evening. We just don't do that enough. We went to see the movie

"Joyful", which I really enjoyed, he said he liked it too, but he knew it would be a movie that I would like.

Then we went to Kohl's and he bought me a necklace and we went out to eat.

We laughed like two teenagers and had a wonderful time. It seems like we stay so busy that sometimes

We put ourselves on the back burner.  What a fun evening! His mom is still in the hospital and is

slowly recovering. Bless her heart this is going on four weeks, and she never complains. She is one strong

woman, a true role model an blessing to me.

New Prims I have made

First I want to thank you all for your prayers for my MIL. She has been in the hospital 3 weeks now.

She is finally improving. She is alert and talking now and not is as much pain. I am so thankful for all

of this. I have a few more prims finished that I have been working on. First I have made a Roundy Bunny,

I used a Bittersweetfolkart  snowman pattern for the body. I then made arms and designed the face to look

like a bunny. I used wool for his nose. I made a prim carrot, with sweet annie for him to hold. He is 14" tall


a big doll, she doesn't have legs, she is 31" long and is partially rag stuffed.


Herbert Rabbit, A Bittersweetfolkart Pattern,
he is 25" tall .

Long prairie bonnet, Civil war looking fabric,
approx. 26" long. My most popular fabric.

Happy Birthday !

Yesterday was my husbands Birthday we had a little party with cake and ice cream for his celebration.

I actually made a totally from scratch chocolate cake for his Birthday. And little Jake had to blow

out the candles. I only put 4 candles on the cake, I left off 50, I didn't want the cake to blow up. He He

 My daughter wrote the most awesome tribute to him on FB, but of course I don't know how to do

all of that linking to FB stuff, rem. me the computer dummy. Well my kids and grandkids adore him.

I am proud of the father and pappy that he is, he never ages, and age doesn't bother him one bit,

He will just say, "Well I am just glad that I made it this far"!

Happy Birthday Ronnie!

Prayers Needed

Please continue to pray for my Mother -In-Law, she isn't doing too well. She is still in the hospital and
the hematoma on her stomach continues to be getting bigger. It is feeling up with blood and she is in so much pain. They have to let her body absorb it. It breaks my heart to see her suffer, continue to lift her up in your prayers Please pray for the Dr's to have wisdom on what to do. Hugs,  Lecia
