POCKETBOOK

Sammy gave me that beautiful charm pack for Mother's Day and I have been itching to make something with some of it. I just finsihed this pocketbook. I didn't have a pattern but I did go back and look at some of Sunday-Girls pocketbooks from a while back. I think I am go to like the size, not too big, but not too small. I really love the colors that are in this charm pack.

It is a good thing to give thanks unto the Lord, and to sing praises unto thy name, O most High.

OATMEAL COOKIES

I made a batch of these cookies Monday, Sammy, Amanda & the kids came for supper, we had hamburgers, baked beans, chips and tea. These are really good and easy to make. Amanda wanted the recipe so I told her I would post it here.

We did however miss Jason, Cheryl & the girls, Jason is recovering from surgery he had on his wrist and was not up to coming over. He is still in a lot of pain but he is getting better, please keep him in your Prayers.

O come, let us sing unto the Lord; let us make a joyful noise to the rock of our salvation.

PRAISE THE LORD

Lori & Pearl

Amanda has told me some great news, Lori ask the Lord in her heart, she is four years old. She and Pearl had been cleaning their room and she came out and ask her Mom was Pearl going to heaven and Amanda said yes that Pearl had ask God to forgive her of her sins, then she ask was she going to heaven, so Amanda told her how to get saved and they prayed a pray together.

MATTHEW 19; 14

But Jesus said, Suffer little children, and forbid them not, to come unto me: for of such is the kingdom of heaven.

LORI'S DRESS

Amanda bought the pattern and the fabric to make this dress........ then she backed out and ask me to make it. I had a lot of fun making it and by the look on Lori's face I think you can say she likes it. I had enough fabric left to make a pocketbook and a change purse.

I DID GET MORE THAN DRAWERS FOR MOTHER'S DAY

I already showed you the drawers that Eddie gave me for Mother's Day, so I thought I would show you what the kids gave me. The beautiful jewelry is from Jason & his family, they are black pearls, a necklace, bracelet & earrings. The charm pack is from Sammy & his family. It is Nouveau by Moda. It is really beautiful.

I love both gifts. I am really Blessed with a great & loving family.
