Hippity Hop !!! -Easter's on It's Way ! --BIG QUESTION !!!

What a busy week last week was -- and this week even more so ,Lots of family fun
coming up -- and Easter -- a very special time for our family .
Some of the busyness is all about the pic below -- mailing out swaps -- right and left -- fun Bunny doins"" --

This week I am still working on swaps -- a tussie swap and a Birdy matchbox one -
Will hope to remember to take pics of those before i send out ..
I guess I lost my brain -- along the way -- took gorgeous pics of my swaps stuff ' and later realized my chiop for my camera was in the Officejet printer -
So therefore the pic above is from last year -- will have to blog nap some pics -- as my partner is posting them on PINK __ Friday !!
I really need to do a better job of posting --
**** QUESTION -- OK was checking my comments on last post -- and someone sent me one about doing a BLOG interview -- I am such a skeptic about crazy internet scams -- that i will not open it -- to read what it is and have never heard of this person ,
or who recommended me ??, besides , i am not very attentiive to my blog, altho I have a long history of creating -- so anyone who has any info -let me know -- If I recognize your blog name will respond -- Blessings -- Kathy - ga ♥

Swapping and my ♥♥♥




Son with a little one who they wanted to bring home with them --( but his MOM loved him and couldn't let him go -lol )- seriously - he followed my son and dtr around and was so attached to them . A more recent pic of my two sweets !!

Today one of my sweetest blogging friends -- Dawn of Feathered - Nest -- a Ga gal with so much talent , but even more heart -- says she struggles on what to post -
Hers' are always wonderful , informational and truly inspirational .
I really need to put a fav blog list -- deleted mine because was so out of date and -- really need a blog overhaul , a swapaholic here (no time ) -

Today Dawn says post what you love and is on your heart --
MY Children are my HEART ♥♥ -- priorities in my life are GOd first , Family and Friends -- then MY church (my ministry there - )and ministry at Pine Valley Mission .
IN the last few days several pictures have come my way via e mail - and one has been on My refrigerator for several years . It is my oldest son when on a Mexico
trip to help build housing for "CASAS por Cristos "(houses for Christ ). He and my sweet Daughter - in Law --went with several others then -- He is much on my heart as he and 12 others are there now, a volatile area , but have heard from him and they are blessed even more than those they are helping -- ALL Prayers for him will be appreciated !!

Spring creating -- and Swaps

I have been so busy with several projects at church --while still trying to create for swaps -- I so love creating paper art etc for this time of year --
My problem is trying to limit the number of swaps -< I do so I won't be overwhelmed -- altho - making multiples ( Had a business for yrs ) has always been pretty easy to me ( assembly line mentality after the design is finally decided on -- But I love to add lots of touches and bling -- so can be a task -- and as I said I am a tagaholic -- and can never pass on up -- Have the spring one ( 19 tags -yikes )finished ,and also karla 's cottage -- ALice swap( only 6 -) ready to go also -- --then a Bunny swap and then a Tussie Mussie -- and one more (see several posts before this-couple of sneak peeks )


NOw these types of things are what I need to focus on --so love Easter creations - this is from a creation last year -

and anything with NEST or birdies , almost my fav thing --This is a shelf in my studio needs redoing-- and will be doing a birdie swap ( contacting my swap partners later today )
Today I received my order from - The Scrappy Gourmet --woo hoo - A kit of birdie things also with maya road and seven gypsy things ( i love them ) but am also a vintage -- lace , bling and foofy girl -- too wonderful --
So trying to do a little post -- oops gotta pick -up the grands in a few -- --
Have a great evening -- kathy - ga ♥

SUNDAY EVENING BLESSINGS


How wonderful it is to get a phone call from our youngest children to see their new Baby bed -- They were so excited and put it together and gave us a call to come see it -- -- Such a special time for them -- They love children so much -- and we are all so happy about welcoming a new grandchild into the world. WE drove the few miles with expectant smiles on our faces -- these are the cute pictures -- of them and the bed -- GOd had blessed them with their own home last summer -- It is so warm and inviting . They will know in a few weeks -- whether we can buy pinks or blues -- or greens LOL -- for the Nursery -- I just bought a little rabbit --
to sit and wait for the new arrival .

Of course it is due in August -- but it is never too soon to start buying ,
God has truly blessed us this year Kathy ♥
