Sneaky Peeky

I'm going to participate in Madame Samm's blog hop in April.  Since I'll be returning from a trip the day before it begins, I knew I needed to have my project done before I left.  Here is a sneak peek.  My official entry will appear on April 20th.  The actual blog hop begins on April 16th.  There is a table topper button over on the right side if you want to check out what it's all about. 

And that is all for now.  Check back on April 20th to see the finished Table Topper.

I Am Loved

This is what I found yesterday afternoon when I came home.  Our 43rd anniversary is on Thursday.  I'm also hoping for a delicious dinner at a lovely restaurant. 

Ironing - Making It Simpler

After browsing several blogs and tutorials about making a big-board ironing board, I sent off a link to my DH.  He was intrigued by the possibility of using what we have to make this.  So we hauled out the standard size ironing board (which hadn't been used for forever!).  DH found boards in the garage from an old brick and board bookcase.  In no time at all, the basic frame was together.

Padded, covered and ready for action

                                                                                      

Today Is The Day

37 years ago a baby boy was born.  At around 9:00 in the evening, Jonathan Michael Sorenson made his entry into the world.  He arrived early and he's been an early achiever ever since.  I am blessed to have such a loving son. 

 Happy Birthday Jon!
