Here is a snap of We Will Adore Him. The stitching is complete and has been for some time-I just need to get to The Silver Needle and buy the buttons and sew them on! It's been really hectic here recently.
Near the end of April, DH and I decided to cut down 2 huge trees in our front yard. The trees were just too big for our size yard and the grass had pretty much disappeared. We tried Fescue, but it just didn't do well. And one of the trees had damage from the ice storm in December last year. So the trees went. Then, we enlarged a flower bed with bricks. While working on the bricks, I jokingly said that since we were doing all that work, why not install a sprinkler system? DH said he had been thinking of doing just that! So, we rented a trencher, dug up the yard, and installed it. This took several weeks--working weekends and a few nights. The dirt was delivered and the yard smoothed out today and the sod will be put down on Friday. We have done all of the work except for the dirt and sod. What a job! But, it will be worth it.
My DD was staying with us for the month of May. She is a PA (Physician Assistant) student and she did her dermatology rotation here. It was good to have her around once again! She will be back in September for another specialty.
Last Wednesday night my Daddy passed away. I stayed with him at the hospital in Oklahoma City from Friday morning to Wed night. It's really tough for me because my Mama passed away only a year and a half ago. I managed to grab several projects to take with me, and got some stitching done.
Will be adding some pictures soon!
