Even the Bugs Praise His Holy Name......


So someone sent me this picture and I think it's awesome...I call it a "Praising Mantis" !

I apologize for not posting any stamping projects lately....I've been working on a few other huge things that are NOT stamping related ( I KNOW!!! ) and I'll post some pics when the timing is right for those....but for now I'm enjoying checking out all of your blogs & posts! My stuff pales in comparison.....God definitely gives to each of us His different gifts & talents :)

We are enjoying some wonderful sunny Spring days here in the Beautiful Pacific "Northwet"....I think we natives appreciate the sun MORE than anyone else when it does peek through :).....oh yeah....and we're experiencing a revival of RIP CITY !!!!!! GO BLAZERS!!!!! :) <><

Thank you Jesus....

Ever wonder why it's called "Good" Friday ? It certainly wasn't 'good' for Jesus...

On the night in which He was betrayed.....

....He took the bread, and broke it- saying "take and eat- this is my body broken for you." <><

"Oh the Places You'll Go and the Things You'll See"......*Dr. Seuss*


So...I don't get out much- I've lived in the same beautiful general area all my "half century+"....but on the rare occasion I DO slip out of the box it's usually been thanks to one of my awesome children (!) I've been to Honolulu & Disney World as a chaperone for my son's amazing high school jazz band-yay Falcons! for example. Stuff I probably never would have gotten to see and do otherwise.....

This week I had the joy & privilege of travelling to Minneso-tah with my darling daughter to 'check out' Concordia St.Paul (she loved it!- go Bears!) and while we were there we did some 'touristy' stuff too. So now I can check the Mall of America off of my 'bucket list'.LOVED the Lego & Beadnick stores :) Drove around St.Paul and saw the amazing cathedral- next time we may go INSIDE :)



..and one of my personal fave destination spots....got myself some souvenir drumsticks :) uhhmm...





....drove over the Mississippi a few times- still icy around the edges....




oh yeah...and ARCHIVERS!- another 'bucket list' item checkeroonied.

It was a full four days :)

I am blessed. <><
