Everything is ready for the costume party

Dash had a great idea to hide his eyes.

I just taped the cheese cloth onto the inside of the mask.

Behold
BAT MAN

I made the cape last year for play time.

Time with Dove last night was so amazing.

She is growing up so fast!

The play wig was so long...

Dash had fun playing with what I cut off.

A favorite moment time.

She was so thrilled.
High School Musical.
Charpy

Is this kid happy or what!

Oh Ya!

Bat Man needed a tool belt. It has pockets for his stuff.

Bat Man....

I embellished the cape when I made it by quilting a raised image of a bat.

The jacket came together fast.

By 10 p.m. I had finished the Bolero Jacket for her.
This way it can be worn for school

Well Dash has his Parade of costumes at 9 a.m. and I have this afternoon with Dove in her class room party.

By Maya Angelou

'A woman's heart should be so hidden in Christ
That a man should have to seek Him first to find her.'

When I say... 'I am a Christian' I'm not shouting 'I'm clean living,'
I'm whispering 'I was lost, Now I'm found and forgiven.'

When I say... 'I am a Christian' I don't speak of this with pride.
I'm confessing that I stumble and need Christ to be my guide.

When I say... 'I am a Christian' I'm not trying to be strong.
I'm professing that I'm weak and need His strength to carry on.

When I say.. 'I am a Christian' I'm not bragging of success.
I'm admitting I have failed and need God to clean my mess.

When I say... 'I am a Christian' I'm not claiming to be perfect,
My flaws are far too visible, but God believes I am worth it.

When I say... 'I am a Christian' I still feel the sting of pain...
I have my share of heartaches, so I call upon His name.

When I say... 'I am a Christian' I'm not holier than thou,
I'm just a simple sinner Who received God's good grace, somehow!

Words have power. Here are a few of my favorite sayings.

A warm cup of tea is like a cuddle with a friend.
The North American Indians have a more eloquent word for ‘friend’ than we do in English. In their language, the word for friend literally means, “the one who carries my sorrows on his back.”
Return with Honor
The sage anticipates things that are difficult while they are easy, and does things that would become great while they are small. All difficult things in the world are sure to arise from a previous state in which they were easy, and all great things from one in which they were small. Therefore the sage, while he never does what is great, is able on that account to accomplish the greatest things."
"HOME IS WHERE YOUR STORY BEGINS"
“Live so that when your children hear these words they think of you… Fairness Caring Integrity Honesty Love Trust.”
"O Lord help my words to be gracious and tender today, for tomarrow I may have to eat them."
"No man has ever been shot while doing the dishes"
