The Beast

It's finally done and it is a beast. I estimate about 90 inches. I will give it to my pastor on Sunday. I know she will love it as it is her favorite color. It took a long time to do as it has been so hot here. July the average temperature was 95-104 all month. This summer just has been unseasonably warm. When it was so hot I could only work with it in the early morning and for only about an hour before the air conditioner couldn't keep up so I would have to put away until the next day. When it got close to done it would take about an hour to go around it so you can figure how long it took to finish. It is well worth it though. It will be my pastors appreciation/house warming/ birthday gift. I will post again with her reaction to it but like I said I know she will love it and know that God has blessed her.

"God's Blessings"

Here it is Sunday again and I am able to make it to church despite not having a car and my normal ride being out of town at annual conference. Normally I call my pastor and ask her for a ride. I had to call a church member today though. He was back from his trip to Washington and was able to take me to church. My daughter is at the annual conference t0 and will be home some time tomorrow. Praise God for all of his blessings. My daughter got to go to annual conference despite us not having the money to send her.

My recent round ripples

These are some of my recect projects:

This was for a baby.

This was for a 3y/o girl

This one is almost done now and is for my pastor. It is very big. I am thinking around 90 inches when it is done.

My Church "Union Bethel AME"

Here is the church I attend. It is Union Bethel AME church. We are a small church but we are doing well as a church. This is an older picture of our church. Thanks to the generosity of our members the sanctuary has brand new stained glass windows. They are so pretty. As a church we have had our share of turmoil, but under the direction of our new pastor the Church is being blessed. She is truly a Woman of God. This is our pastor. The Reverend Mercedes Tudy - Hamilton.

Summer Camp

It's that time of year again. Girl Scout camp. In a week my daughter is going to Camp Scoutana. Here is the picture of her when we took her last year. This is a picture of the Nilan Reservoir that you go past just a couple of miles before you get to camp. The theme of her camp is "the Advanced Potters Wheel". She is very excited to go. She just loves it. Sure hope she makes time to write to us this year. I wrote her a ton last year and we never heard from her once. Pay all that money to send them away, and they don't even write to tell you if they are having fun or not.

Feild Trip

Well I went on the field trip with my daughter. We went to egg mountain near Choteau Montana, then we visited the dinosaur museum in Choteau and went to freeze out lake. It was an all day trip and we had fun. Even my daughter that didn't want me there had fun. We learned about Montana's native dinosaurs, we did science experiments with soil, and learned about the paleontologist who discovered egg mountain. His name is Jack Horner (I also learned he had dyslexia which was important because I am having my son tested later this month and I was wondering what his future would be if the test said he has it), he and a friend discovered the first baby dinosaur bones. I learned a lot on the trip and even got a little sun burned.
