It has been far too long since my last post, but a crafty project I was working on for my parents' 50th wedding anniversary took over my life for quite a while. Fifty years of photos (5,000 scanned slides plus a couple hundred recent digital photos narrowed down to a MERE 800+ photos), 2 hours of 8-mm video from the 1950s -60s (painstakingly digitized and edited frame-by-frame down to about 30 minutes), a couple of hours of old family gospel music from when I was a child, and some very old audio of my grandfather reciting a Bible verse, singing a lullaby, and reciting the Gettysburg Address were all brought together in a near-2 hour DVD that I presented to my parents when I visited them in November to help celebrate their BIG accomplishment.
It was lovely and my dad was a weeping mess. Mission accomplished! :)
My point is that I will soon be back to the blog, and I have high hopes of creating wonderful and crafty things. Be patient with me as I try to take care of my son, clean my house, prepare for Christmas, run my ebay store, and try not to go completely insane along the way.
I pray the year 2011 holds in store wonderful things for you and your loved ones. Have a blessed holiday season, whether you celebrate Hanukkah, Christmas, or any other sacred day, may the Lord be with you and keep you safe. Happy New Year, too!!!

Dawn,
ReplyDeleteThank you for joining my blog and for leaving a comment. I hope to use my cricut for more patterns in the future. I have an old scroll saw or I should say my husband does that I have had fun playing with. I use pink vinly to cut out and then put it on the wood and cut around it. It works pretty good and the pink stands out and is easy to see. Congrats on your little boy. I know you enjoy and appreciate what a gift from God he is. I know it sounds crazy but I can't wait to have a lot of noise around the house:)
