Hi Ho, Hi Ho, back to work I go!



I have enjoyed my two weeks off work. I even worked a little. Not on work, but on things like unpacking two, yes, just two boxes. I, also, worked on homework. Ugh, why did I do this to myself? I didn't clean the house! Hehehehehehehehe! Only what had to absolutely get done. We went on vacation. It was a nice, relaxing week. And finally on Elisabeth's scrapbook for honor star crowning. For those of you that don't know what this is.... it has taken her 3 years to complete. She has read the New Testament completely and memorized 27 scriptures. She had to take a written test on those scriptures. Not just a simple fill in the blank, but write every word. She has honored not only the last 3 years, but the last 8 years. Wow! I am so proud of her! Not for just the worldly mom reasons, but the "raise them right and they will honor the Lord" reasons. I pray she will always seek and honor the Lord because of the foundation she has built in the Lord. We took pictures of her in her dress. I don't remember if I told you about the dress, but if so, entertain me for a moment. My MIL made it from my left over bridal satin. My satin was 17 years old and I never thought about it even being found, let alone to have a dress made from it 17 years later. It is amazing that I found it in the garage of packed boxes. Any way, here is one of the many pictures...


This is not the one we are using in her scrapbook. Because of the sun spots! :o(
