Chic Click

I have been happily married for 26 1/2 years, well...except for some of those small discussions we have had thru out the years.  We have three grown children and two wonderful "in-laws" that take us as we are.  We also have one grandson that is the love of our life.  He will be 2 soon and when we are with him we have a blast!  I have been a retail salesperson, cashier, costume sewer, quilter, Barbie doll clother, lego maniac momma, birthday party designer, bike riding trainer, broke elbow holder, fishing tackle in the foot take to the ER to get out of the foot momma, hold on for dear life x3 driving trainer, Hammester finder, dog sitter, church pianist, preacher's wife, Army mom, worrying mom, and a million (I am sure!) other things that come with life,
I am currently serving as a Full-time Houseparent for Promise House.  PH is a home  for un-wed teenage girls.  We love on the girls while they are here during their pregnacy then we get to see the new baby.  Recently, we have started a new program where we have taken one mother and baby back to live with us.  Most of our girls and their baby go back to the placement they were at before coming to P.H.  So here I do my best to show them what a family life would be like if they were part of our family.  Not too sure if I succeed all the time.

If I had to chose a favorite post of mine I would choose  Momma's Quilts Host a Party.  My mom was a quilter so was her mother.  Momma left us all dozens upon dozens of quilt tops ready to be finished. I inherited 28 of those quilt tops.  As you can see in the post....a fun time was had by all.

I love this blog from Chic Click....time for some of you to check it out!
She has lots of tutorials of some awesome creations!


 


This is not simply a linky party, the purpose of the “Chic Click Carnival” is to introduce yourself and one fellow peep you found using the Visit Our Peeps widget.  You can to Skip to my Lou to find out all the directions for the fun we all are having!
