We went to a new church this morning for VBS and had 95 children! That's awesome! All were attentive, participated, very polite and had lots of fun. This afternoon we went to a Boys Home right outside of town. These guys are in this home by court order ~ could be neglectful parents, or they could have been homeless, or some kind of run in with the law. We had 75 boys & the staff at the home. ALL ages, 7 or 8 to 17 or 18. They all listened, enjoyed the craft & loved the candy we brought.
In between the 2 we had a couple of free hours in town ~ Greg, Amy and I hit the streets...we shopped at the fabric store, found a great little sewing/craft notions store and hit a few others. The sewing notions store had great prices on sewing machine needles, lace and beads. I got 3 packs of needles, 7 yards of lace and 2 long strings of beads + individual beads for $6. I had figured out what I wanted fabricwise on our first trip into the store, so todays expedition was relatively easy. I got about 14 yards of fabric for $40. All the fabric is 60 inches wide ~ one of them is 92 inches wide! And I've got some $$ left, so I may go back there too!
Here are some pictures!

I love crafting, sewing, cooking & canning, recipes of all kinds, reading, playing with my little buddies, family time, travel, pinterest and most of all the Lord.
