February Favorite

Do you have a favorite?  I don't mean a favorite child, I mean that one yummy thing that you love to have, can't leave home without it, makes your day every time you use it?  For Third Thursday in February we would like to share our favorite things.  Kind of on the order of Oprah's favorite things only less expensive (Nobody will be getting a car--sorry).  If you are willing to share your favorite, bring it along, share the item and the joy with another sister, and she will pass on her favorite thing too, maybe to you!  Stay tuned for updates on this meeting it will be February 17 at 7pm but we are still looking for a location.  Feel free to leave some comment love.

Craft Day

Thursday February 3rd at 10am there will be a craft day gathering at Amy Gardner's house.  We will be making two different crafts:

footed bowl OR hurricane

OR apothecary jar

AND

crepe paper rose wreaths as seen on House of Smith's 



For the glass project:  Dollar Tree on Durango and Elkhorn (next to TJMaxx) in the Smith's shopping center has candle sticks and glass vases and candy jars all for $1 each.  Gorilla Glue will be provided for this craft.

For the wreath only--not the board:  Save your Michael's coupon for a styrofoam wreath form!  WalMart has rolls of crepe paper but Party City has a larger selection.  You will also need hot glue for this one so bring your glue gun!

Please gather your supplies and come ready to learn a new craft and spend the morning visiting.

Third Thursday

We had a great time mostly visiting with a little crafting and eating on Thursday night.  Brandi entertained...

Chris sweetened us up...

Barb gave us a variation on the theme...

Thrilling Third Thursday?  Come next month and you decide!

This is an amazing story about a Daughter of God and her experiences as she deals with an incredible trial.  Her blog is also amazing and uplifting.  Even in the depths of frustrations, irritations, sadness, she finds the beauty in all of it.  Check her out here.

Giveaway!

Betsey Holley has a trampoline that folds in half and rolls for storage.  It is perfect because you can put it away!!  It needs a new pad but it is free to the first one who comes to get it!
