March ALREADY???

Holy Heck where did the time go???

So much has been happening lately I dont know whether I am coming or going or sitting still...

A couple weeks ago was 1 year since the miscarriage, it was a hard day for me but my husband spent the day with me. After the kids got home we got some balloons wrote on them and did a balloon "let go" it was really nice and special.

I have a rather painful cyst on my foot, pretty much the only thing to give me relif is surgery which we cant afford since I dont have any insurance, so I must deal with the pain, it dosen't hurt as bad as other things do.

I have been tatting and beading quite a bit lately, I am getting ready for my first ever craft show with my friend Debbie. Its on March 24. I cant wait :)

I also created some neat looking necklaces with beads and sequins...

I been making hummingbirds too for magnets

among other things I havent gotten to take photos of.

I will leave you with a photo of my hubby and kids when we went for a walk down in our woods

That right there is my whole reason I do what I do... <3 them

Gina

The tatting world has lost a beautiful lady!!!
You are sadly missed Gina. May you tat with the angels and have lots to show us when its our time to be called up. My condolences go out to your family and friends!!

Gina was the one lady who helped me so much, tested a few patterns and looked past my "needle" tatting and never had one cross word about it. I miss you Gina, we all do!

Happy New Year!!

Well Happy New Year!! I have missed you all and I hope to be back to blogging for good now :)
*This past year has been a rotten one for us, but this year will be better* There are still some things in my life that are really hard to deal with but with the help of some really AWESOME people I am getting through it!!!
I have been tatting and it feels so good to be back into that again. Before Christmas my friend Laura ordered 3 dozen tatted snowflakes, I of course had to make my own design and I did. I love these pretties, the pattern will be available soon in my etsy shop.

I have also been tatting up some hummingbirds :)

And Ginger had to get a little tatted something as well

I made some birthstone pendants one is mine the other is for someone else Mine has the angel dangling from it and the other is a grandmas necklace, kids on top heart grandkids on bottom heart

My Christmas Trees and a picture of one of my angels using a filter on my camera I love this picture

I also wanted to share a touching thing a dear friend done for me. My friend Jana placed an order for a pink and blue butterfly to be used as an ornament. She wanted 2 so I got my mind working and came up with one I loved it, she loved it. I sent them to her and then she wanted another one. So I also sent that to her. She sent me a text and told me she wanted the 3rd butterfly made for her so that she could send it back to me, in honor of babies lost. OMG I lost it. I was so deeply touched by this. There are no words to express how I feel! She said she had me do it that way so that she was sure I would make it, which in any other case I probably wouldnt have made it. It is so nice to have people in my life who care enough to do things like this or ask me how I am doing with the loss.
