I have to brag...

I have to take a minute and brag about a very AMAZING lady in my life.

MY MOTHER IN LAW

She has raised 5 amazing boys - the oldest which is my husband.
And somehow amongst all the crazines she was still able
to fit in time for herself QUILTING.

(Although I secretly think this became her Valium...)

I went to a quilt retreat several weeks ago
where she was the trunk show.
I thought I had lost these pictures as they were taken with my phone
BUT I just found them.

She has created some amazing quilts.
She has also promised to document them
- - - I sure hope she does, because her boys don't know her stories - - -

I am amazed at her ability.
Here are the pics








My husband left the iron on this cross stitch
She actually let him live
Boy am I GLAD!!
Not only is she an amazing quilter

but she is a wonderful mother in law,

grounded in the gospel of Jesus Christ.

LOVE YOU!!

I'm in TROUBLE!

I know I will be in trouble, but I'm hoping that if I post it first then my mother and mother in law won't be as upset the next time they see my youngest child.

Of course my mother will see him tomorrow - probably before she sees this post...

My youngest was born with hair like his fathers...
Beautiful CURLS..

Any woman would be jealous.

I know that I am. I would kill for some body to my hair.
Instead two of my children were blest with this.

So I guess I better show the


BEFORE...


AFTER...

If you don't see me, that is because I have now gone into hiding.

I know that once the curls grow back I will be safe...

LOVE YA MOM's!!
