Puerto Vallarta

Thought I would share some pictures with you guys from my trip to Mexico. We went to Puerto Vallarta with our Church for the Feast Of Tabernacles for 11 days. The weather was constantly in the 90’s and extremely HUMID! But we pushed through the humidity and had fun just the same 🙂

Here is some pics from our zip lining and swimming with the dolphins adventure!!

What’s on Your Sewing Table?

Thought I would share with you guys what I am currently working on.

I finally finished all those log cabin squares!!! Yay. I squared off all of them to 7.5X7.5 and now I am starting to sew the rows together 🙂

I have to run out to Jo Anne’s to get some batting for this wall hanging I am making my best friend Jennifer who is struggling with MS. I am sending her this wall hanging once complete, with some other trinkets all wrapped up in smiles, hugs and love.

My faithful furry friend is with me always, whether I am at the computer blogging, in the kitchen cooking or at the sewing machine lol 🙂
