Wishing you all a wonderful Memorial weekend

I hope you all are enjoying this Memorial weekend. Hope the weather is good and if you are traveling that you travels are safe. I am spending it with all of my kids, and my granddaughter Rachel. I can't wait to see her! Here is a picture of my Mom's apple blossom tree. It is so pretty right now. Some of Mom's flowers in bloom... I did get some stars sewn up this week, just no pictures of them yet. And one of the best parts of the past week was the package I received from Cyndy over at Crafty Stitchers blog. I won her giveaway and I am so happy I did. This is my first bag holder and she is wonderful. Cyndy sews beautiful and her doll is so cute. Thank you Cyndy for having such a wonderful giveaway!!!

Wishing you a Blessed Easter!

Wishing everyone a blessed and happy Easter! I hope it is filled with love, laughter, family and friends. Colleen

My weekend, templates and crafts

I had a wonderful weekend with all my kids. It was my youngest birthday, he turned 7.. He wanted to go spend it with his older brother Adam , older sister Heather in Greenbay. I had no problem with that because then I got to hang out with my little granddaughter Rachel... The weekend went way to fast but when you are with the people you love and having a good time it always does. My kids played in Rachel's waiting pool. Rachel was napping and missed out on the fun. When I got home sunday night this is my rose that opened up while I was gone... I am glad we got home when we did because we had some rain after we were home awhile. Today I am crafting on some ghost's and hope to have a picture of them soon. Hope to be working on lots of fall items and even start snowman and christmas so be on the watch for those. I am also starting some new templates and banners for Etsy for fall and christmas. So if you need to spruce up your pages check out all my templates and banners.Hope to get some of them done by the end of the week. Till next time Colleen

Not much crafting get done but lots of fun hanging out with the kids... We enjoy the pool when the weather is warm enough... Trips to the library for some good reading..... Back yard fun.... And just hanging out and laughing with each other Soon enough summer will end and I will be able to craft again. Till next time... Colleen
