Happy President's Day




Oh for the advise of our founding fathers today! And I use the word today in a broad way meaning this time period of ours. I don't want to get political on this blog, because that is not what I started it for, but I do want to take a minute and just say that we need to pray for our country! And we need to not be afraid to do it. I think our government tries to make things to complicated, and likes to keep us all confused. We need to stand up for good old fashioned principles, the kind this country was founded on. We also need to let our leaders know that they work for us and we surround them. I just hope we can all wake up and be the "united" in the USA before it's to late.






On a happier note, I finally feel like spring is right around the corner. We cleaned up the storm damage in the yard yesterday. It took all day. We were exhausted last night. But there are some signs of spring out there.






Today I am including a couple pictures from the wall in my kitchen. The little mice were made by Debbie Miller, and the snow gal was made Tammy Speicher. I hooked the rug in a class in Arrow Rock. The pattern id available through The Woolley Fox (link above).
