Some forgotten happenings...

... Over the past few weeks several things have been kind of missed -blogging wise- and with our move coming up on us quickly I thought I'd better get going and caught up on things before I forget completely! Hope you enjoy the following. - Grace


Recently one of the 'little' ladies in our church was going to have a birthday, so Faith decided to make her a dress.

Purple with polka dots and white piping was chosen and the project commenced.

Faith has made a dress from this pattern before and even with a few adjustments she whipped it off pretty fast!

Tada! The finished product, matching bloomers and all!

Cruiz looked just lovely in that full skirt dress (I wasn't able to get a picture of her twirling in it) and was very thankful to Faith who did a most excellent job!

Our house sells, so we start cleaning stuff up and packing. Well that brought us to find a lot of stuff that we did not need and thankfully right around this time also the ever faithful Purple Heart truck was going to be making it's round and "YES" we did have a lot of stuff for them!

Back in the middle of March Dad had the wonderful opportunity to go with a friend down to the Contending for the Truth conference in Florida. The event was hosted by Ligonier Ministries.


God blessed the whole event and Dad and Mr. Worden came back with pages and pages of notes that they shared with the church.

You can check out more about the conference and what it was all about and even purchase audio copies at www.contendingforthetruth.com

This poor little guy was yet another victom of our front window. Thankfully though it was not fatal. What a great opportunity from the Lord though, as Faith was able to hold the most adorable Brown Tree Creeper who occasionally visits our yard! Such an amazing creation!



Not quite ready to take off, this little guy laid in Faith's hand until he got his bearings back and flew to one of our backyard trees. The most interesting and unique thing about this small bird is that unlike wood peckers and such, these can only climb up the tree and have to fly back down if they want to get to a lower spot!
