I will be working on the no. 13 civil war block today and got to do a little cleaning in this house. I have little fella today, he inform me that he want me to make him Lasagna and salad with garlic bread for Sunday dinner, he is just 3 , and was planning my Sunday dinner, so this will be what we will have. this past Sunday after church we when to my daughter house for my oldest granddaughter 19th birthday, I made her favorite cake, it was Hersey bar almond cake, we all had a good time. This will be all, for now hope every is having a good week. Matthew 5 verse 14 -15-16 You are like light for the whole world. a city built on a hill cannot be hid. No one lights a lamp and put it under a bowl; instead he puts it on the lamp stand, where it gives light for everyone in the house, In the same way your light must shine before people, so that they will see the good things you do and praise your Father in heaven.

in my sewing room------ Meet myself going or coming!

To day a slow day. tired from the week in. Our church had a 3 day revival, and had my 3 granddaughters, and we lose a dear friend / cousin this week, she was 66 years old and had cancer and she just couldn't beat it. May she rest in peace. With going to the funeral home and church it was a busy week in. Sunday the family was here for dinner and in the afternoon it was the funeral, and back to church Sunday night.We took our granddaughter home after church I think they was tired also.

Today, i did work some on my egg money quilt, got all the border put on and i ran out of my fabric, I like 6 strip to finish it. Old POO!
I was going over to the quilt shop but little fella when to sleep, I think he is taking a cold. hope he's not, I don't like for them to feel bad. I was going to get the fabric there to finish it, and this will be two quilt top ready to be quilted. I'm still working on my spider web and the quilt as you go, I like 12 more blocks! YAAAAY!!!

Saturday my 3 granddaughter and I work on one of my flower bed and fix a bird house and put there , on Sunday morning before church we saw a blue bird building her nest in it. It has been some pretty weather here so I like to be outside doing some cleaning in my flower beds and the grands like to help.

I think this will be enough for today, Hope everyone will have a Bless week!

God is good, All the time!
