Let Freedom Ring

With the 4th of July tomorrow I've been thinking and pondering about so many of the Freedoms that I enjoy. How grateful I am for all who came before me to provide me with so many blessings associated with our Independence. May I never take it for granted. Thank you to all you gave so freely and so much. God Bless America!

As a side note on the light side after my sober contemplations I've posted a table-runner that I made to remind me of this great holiday. It was inspired by my Nicole in her Relief Society and many of the fabric pieces/scraps were donated by Heidi out of her stash. Thanks Heidi for the fabric and Nicole for the Idea. I LOVE you both.

Let's Celebrate our Independence!!! And never Forget!

Unexpected post

Mark and I had an amazing, crazy busy, super spiritual summer that will forever be in our hearts. Today I'll just post about the start of the summer with the addition of a new grandson.  Caleb Shelby was born on the 4th of July and amidst all of the fireworks he had to spend a few extra days in the hospital.  Modern medicine brings with it the gift of restored life.  How grateful I am to the Lord for his many tender mercies.  I also got to spend some extra time with Hannah and Adam which is always a pleasure to be with grandkids.   Another bonus from them being at our home also brings in the Jodi/Robby and Scott/Amanda families. yahoo.  I LOVE my FAMILY.
