Alisha is recovering well

Alisha 6 went through 10 hrs of open heart surgery yesterday. Today she is off of almost all the tubes and is doing great. If all goes well she should be able to go home within a week we hope.

My Great Granddaughter Alisha is going into open heart surgery

Alisha is 6 yrs old and she is so sweet and sassy at the same time with lots and lots of Attitude!! LOL
She was born with some  heart problems and will be having a heart valve repaired or replaced tomarrow morning. so any prayers would be appreciated. This is her 3rd surgery since birth. We know the Lord has her in His hands but we are of course nervously waiting for it to be all over. Thanks!!  Rhonda

  These are my great grandkids.

We had a good day today. Went to a family get together for my husband's family and he got to see his brothers and sister and his mom for awhile. Lots of cousins and other family there too. He doesn't get out and see them very often so it was good to get him out of the house.

My Molly has been driving me nuts! She is a German short haired pointer and she is obsessive about what she wants!! LOL  I buy these small dog bones treats and she gets a small handful from time to time. I ran  out and she kept begging and begging today!! We had to go get a box of them. I told her I think she is addicted to the darn things!! LOL  But she is a happy gal now. I tried some other treats but they didn't work for more than a few mins and she was begging again. But she is content now for awhile anyway!

I've been working on some quilt blocks for my quilt block swap on the Quilting Board. I need to get them done and in the mail soon. I bought some teal and lime fabrics today for a quilt block for my June partner Cheryl. Those are her colors. I hope she likes the colors I picked out.

I started a Wall Hanging Swap on the Quilting Board this month and everyone has to make 4 quilt blocks and use them to make their Wall Hanging. I am so excited to see what people do with it.

Right now the quilt blocks are posted for my Quilt Contest for One Quilt Block. If you want to vote go to the thread and see the voting instructions. To vote you have to send your choice to Patrice in an email.
