Fall Time Finally!

 Remember the pillowcase I made for Jace with the help of one of my BFFs Lisa?
Well after that, I was hooked! I really like sewing!
I was going to save up for a machine and all the notions but JB surprised me and said a sewing machine could be my early birthday gift!
He is WAY to good to me! :)

My first sewing project were some stay-put kitchen towels.
I made these fairly quick and they were so much fun to make!
There were flaws and I admit I goofed up more than I should have but Misty loved them!
And THAT is all that matters! :)

Piecing the parts together


Finished product! I made 2 because everyone needs TWO towels for the the oven handle ;)


Jace's school had Fall pictures.
I took advantage of the cooler (under 100 degree) weather to dress him in jeans!


He looks like a little man!

Hey Jace - QUIT GROWING UP SO QUICK!
- Love Mommy

 Looking JUST like Daddy!




We took Jace for a ride on Uncle Marty's Gator to check JB's deer feeder.


Jace LOVES this thing! Maybe one day we can afford a Ranger - with 4 seats and seat belts!




The following Saturday Jace and I went over to The Schumpert's house.
The kids played and we had dinner! :)
JB was visiting his dad in San Antonio ( I will get back to that later) so he didn't make it to the fun.




BANG BANG!


I knew one day I would find Jace sleeping somewhere else than his bed - and I did.
He likes to look under doors lately so I can bet he woke up in the middle of the night, played a little (b/c his room was TRASHED) and checked under the door to see if Mommy was around to join in on the fun. LOL


At Jace's new daycare they have started having Jace drink out of a big boy cup.
He has picked up on this SO well!!! I am so proud of him. He hardly spills it and when he does he tries to clean it up. :)



  So back to JB's dad...the big picture is he had surgery, the doctor told him to use a heating pad, he did and received 3rd degree burns! Keep in mind JB's dad has been paralyzed from the waist down since JB was one. Most with common sense would not tell a paraplegic to sit on a heating pad. Anyways - the damage is done now. He was sent to the burn center in San Antonio where he is getting great treatment.
We KNOW God will heal Ronnie and will give him the strength to get through this.
The best part is that he is cooperating with the doctors and treatments.
Ronnie is a very strong man that never lets anything get him down! It is very admirable!
We need him to get out of the hospital healthier than he went in there!
This fall and winter are going to be busy and I know he is going to want to be a part of it all.

PLEASE pray for Ronnie!
Pray that he will heal up perfectly and is out of the hospital in a miraculous amount of time!
Pray that he stays strong and no further harm is done.
 Pray that justice is done for this situation.
