Myrtle Beach in January

Kevin and I went to Myrtle Beach over this past weekend 
with a lovely couple from our church. 
They are wonderful people and we all had a great time! 
Here are a few of the pictures I took of our trip.
You really put me on the 14th floor?

Looking south down the shoreline

poor jelly fish

Kevin trying to decide what to do with the jelly fish...the tide took care of it.

I never wear shoes when walking on the beach. I hate the feel of sand in my shoes...
....but I do love how it feels between my toes!!!
 The wind was blowing so hard that I couldn't keep the camera strap out of the way!!
This ferris wheel was two blocks away! Its said to be the largest in the world.

Kevin, Me, Brenda, and Clarence
Thank you to Clarence and Brenda for taking us with you to the beach.
We had a great time and enjoyed making new friends with your 'old'. friends!

Thank you to Pastor Micah Hucks, his wife Donette, and everyone at Bread of Life Church for making us feel so welcome and for the wonderful dinner.

Hope that everyone is having a blessed time!!

I'm Gonna Try a Block Of the Month among other things...

I've decided to try the free BOM from Craftsy, using only fabrics that I already have...it should be interesting to say the least. If you like quilting, or want to learn quilting, this would be a great place to start.  You can join in any time, and work at your own pace.

Here's the link to Craftsy:   http://blog.craftsy.com/2012/01/bomstartsnow/


Hopefully I'll be able to work this BOM into my daily remodeling projects around the house. I'm so looking forward to getting the house finished. I'm tired of the dust and dirt flying around (allergies--on high alert!!) and the critters in the attic (squirrels and birds--yuck...they belong in the oak tree in the front yard)!

Hope everyone is having a greatly blessed day!!!
