Quick Update

My grandfather did end up having 3 bypasses and as of yesterday was doing well. Now the "real" test starts. They are going to start weaning him off of his pain medication and that means he will start feeling worse. My mom is flying home Friday and my aunt is going down to Florida on Friday to help my step-grandma and grandpa for a week.

Then...last night my Hubby was on the phone for 130 minutes! With who you ask? He was talking with his friend "A" (whose Dad died last week). "A" is really feeling convicted by the Lord (we believe)...now it is just up to him to decide. God is working in his heart and "A" just needs to realize his need for our Lord and Saviour. It was a great conversation though. Although...we are tired today, but I would much rather loose sleep over that then something else!

On the crocheting front...I have a total of 7 doilies done for our couples night and I got supplies yesterday from UPS (FINALLY!) to start a shawl I hope to have done for the night, but we will have to wait and see if I can crochet that fast! ;) May you all have a blessed day.

I almost forgot...all (well, almost all) the ladies from our church gathered at Mrs. M's home for tea. Little did I realize until after I got there that it was her birthday. (I've been a little "distracted" lately.) Anyway...we all had such a wonderful time. It was also nice because 3 of the young ladies are leaving tomorrow for Columbia. They are going down there to help out at an orphanage. So, I just wanted to "publicly" thank Mrs. M for the wonderful time I had yesterday (and the yummy food)! Thank you!

OH YES.....Little E is now 4 weeks old!

Hello! Thank you for visiting my blog and for the sweet comment. I will say a little prayer for your grandpa, that the weaning off the medicine goes smoothly.
The tea at Mrs. M's house sounds wonderful!

Show and Tell Friday (10/5)

Welcome to "Show and Tell Friday!" Do you have a something special to share with us? It could be a trinket from grade school, a piece of jewelry, an antique find. Your show and tell can be old or new. Use your imagination and dig through those old boxes in your closet if you have to! Feel free to share pictures and if there's a story behind your special something, that's even better! When we went to the Fall Festival a couple of weeks ago Hubby bought the children wooden swords. They have had so much fun with those...pretending to be knights, pirates, and soldiers. Well, hubby decided that he could make them just as well or better. So here is a finished sword made by hubby. (He actually ended up making seven!) Our local leather shop cut out the pieces for us which cut down on our work tremendously. Hopefully I can show off one that is much bigger soon. Hubby decided that he needs some protection from Big T and Sweet E so he is making himself one. :) **This wasn...

Feel free to share pictures and if there's a story behind your special something, that's even better! Yesterday I was in our side yard raking up a pile of leaves for Sweet E to play in and I saw something out of the corner of my eye. It was bright red. I looked down and saw three bright red objects in the grass. I picked them up....I have never seen these before. We are thinking they may possibly be wild strawberries, but are unsure since we have no prior experience with them. (really have no clue as to what they actually are.) And...what in the world would they be doing in the yard at the end of October! I just wanted to share pictures to see what everyone else thought. I thought it wa...

Feel free to share pictures and if there's a story behind your special something, that's even better! This week I wanted to Show off Big T's latest adventure. Last week he attended Bible school and Grandma S' church. The theme was Avalanche Rance and I know there are a LOT of churches doing this one. It fit him perfectly since he has a love of horses. So I just wanted to share a few pictures from the last night of Bible school....or as Big T calls it, Cowboy School . ;) Here is a picture of Little E and Grandpa S waiting for the program to start. The next two pictures are of the children standing up front. Not good pictures, but you can tell they all have the "deer in the...
