    Makin Pretty Things "Butterfles & Blogs" Blog Hop - April 21st

    Hello Uneek Ladies

    Welcome to
    Butterflies & Blogs
    hosted by the lovely Laura of Making Pretty Things
    If you just fluttered from Butterfly then you are in the right place
    If you are just visiting and would like to start at the top click
    What girl doesn't like butteflies. In 2008 I went to Playa De Carmen, Mexico in January and it was the butterfly season.  I had taken footage and pics but unfortunately, my ex-fiance had them and lost them.  So that is the best way to describe the scenery.
     "It was a sea of serenity and peacefulness in the air"

    Laura
    Happy Birthday Gurly!
    Thank you for allowing me to be a part of such a grand hop
    May you have many more to remember

    My Creation
    CATCH ALL YARN BOWLS
    INGREDIENTS
    Yarn
    Modge Podge




    love the translucent effect
    This bowl actually is able to hold 4 bananas 2 oranges and 1 apple
    A-M-A-Z-I-N-G
    lol

    I am human and if you cut me I would bleed
    not every project is successful or perfect
    It's all trial and error
    I had thought that 24 hours would have been plenty to finish the look I wanted
    the plastic wrap is still stuck on the bottom of the bowl
     It's going to take another day for the glue to harden
    Flutter flutter to the next butterfly LAUREN

    I love spring because mother nature has awakened
    and is dusting off all the muted colors
    and splashing colors of life into the earth.

    Humans tend to mimic or recreate God's mysteries
    we never can get 100% results
    It's only natural to wonder how He does it

    I guess this was a little more difficult to complete then I thought. 
    It's been a long week after the passing of my father
     and in the stages of
    should have
    would have
    could have
    I will keep this short and sweet.


    I honor my father
    because the bible says I must
    I honor my father
    because he gave me life
    I honor my father
    because when I did see him it was memorable
    I honor my father
    because regardless of the distance he still loved me
    I honor my father
    because his was not a perfect man
    I honor my father
    because he did what he could during the time he was here
    I honor my father
    because while he didn't want me to worry
    I honor my father
    because I only have but good memories
    I honor my father
    because he is still my father 
    no one can take that away from me.

    Appreciate life

    Spring Is in the Air!

    I surrounded my project around the passing of my father

    Spring time and new beginnings
    He is no longer in pain, but in peace
    I am not grieving, but celebrating
    him going home with the Lord

    I believe that life in heaven
    is much much greater
    than what we can imagine
    here on earth
