Veteran's Day

Please take a moment today and thank a veteran for the service they have given to our country. Our servicemen and women are very important to this country and stand up for what is right. Also, please say a prayer for the soldiers and families at Fort Hood that have had to endure this horrible act of aggression against them. I know that I am thinking about them often and hopefully the man who committed this horrible crime will pay the price for what he has done.

On to better and brighter things. The next Quiltville mystery quilt is about to get started. I don't plan on starting it when the rest do, but I will follow along and hope to make it sometime this winter. I'm still working on the last mystery quilt, so I can't start anything new until I finish that one.

I think today is going to be spent raking leaves. I'm hoping to get them finished up. I just have to finish the backyard and do the front and side. I've already filled 35 bags and I'm hoping not to have to do another 35. I really want to get these leaves up because I'm one of the last houses to still have leaves in the yard. Luckily, I'm not the last last, but its getting close. The day is suppose to be beautiful and I know the dogs will enjoy hanging outside.

Happy Veteran's Day!!
