My husband's quilt and some friends...

I made this quilt for my husband a few years ago. It was supposed to be a lap quilt, but since numbers mean nothing to me until I see something in that size, it turned out to be a queen sized quilt. I had it professionally quilted so that it would be ready for Christmas that year. It's being aired out on the woodpile right now, that will make it smell nice for tonight.

Well, I guess Christmas is really over. We took the tree down today and put everything up in the attic for another year. It sure makes the house look bigger and cleaner, but not as cheerful.
Time for Valentine's Day decorations then! <3

The weather here is so weird today that it seems like spring will be coming in a few weeks. We are trying not to be fooled, because we are definitely in for at least a few snow storms and freezing temperatures. It sure has been gray most of the month though. I feel sorry for people who have winter depression since it's so dismal and dreary.

Homemade pizza for dinner tonight. I will make spaghetti and meatballs for tomorrow while I am making the pizza. That makes the first day back to work each week a little easier to manage.

It is so hard not to buy that fabric!! I am afraid to make that kind of promise-even to myself. :)

Thank You, Autumn!!

Yes, I am keeping up with the daily BIBLE reading. It is actually a fun thing to do. Every night I tell my husband, "Hey, did you know that this was from the BIBLE?" and it will be a quote or a story that we thought came from somewhere else. It's not hard to do the way that Charles Stanley has put it together.

Thanks for reading my blog. I love doing it!
