House in Bland!!





We have sold our house in Knoxville!! We are now in the procress of purchasing this house in Bland. It is 3 bedroom and 1 bath - it needs some updating as the house was built in 1945, but it has a lot of character and has been well taken care of. It has a 1 car detached garage and also a nice block building in the back. We are hoping to have it by the end of Aug and hopefully middle of September be moving in. Do we have any volunteers to help with the renovating - it is mainly redoing the entire kitchen and sanding and refinishing the hard wood floors. Please continue to pray for us.

Quilting!!

I have started my very first quilt - I will keep you updated as to how well it is going. I am trying to make a crib size quilt for one of my dearest friends. The pictures are me cutting out my squares and then the sqaures laid out into rows. It is going to be purple, blue, yellow, and pink gingam. I also have a new Janome Memory Craft 350E machine, so I hope to share some of my work with you!!

Baseball Game!!





The other night we took the kids to the Princeton Rays baseball game - it is a farm team for Tampa Bay. It was a nice hot night and the Rays won. We received free t-shirts as a promotion - free stuff is always fun.
