Tim started teaching Confirmation on Wednesday afternoons and added Sunday School to his list of duties as well! He's been out and about visiting members of the congregations and gave his first Anniversary speech for a couple of the church! He's been preparing for the LCMC Annual Gathering this next week in Denver. Here he will have his certification interview, which is the start of his call process for obtaining a position in a church upon completion of his internship and graduation! Wow...did that sound formal or what?! It's a big step towards our future, where ever it will take us!
I've been keeping busy working and when I'm not working I've been relaxing making cards and working on wreaths for the hospital's annual wreath auction! As well as quilting with a few ladies of the church for Lutheran World Relief care packages! Since I've started with the wonderful ladies at the church we've completed over 72 quilts! It's been a pleasure helping provide a warm blanket for those who don't have one! I've also added teaching Sunday School on Sunday's as well! AND this week at work I am starting training to become a CNA!
Both puppies are doing great! Bear and Wini have learned to play nice with each other! Wini seems to enjoy trying to get Bear to chase her around the house and then when he gets to close she darts under the coffee table or dining room table where Bear can't get her! It's also a laugh of a time when they play tug-o-war since Bear has no issue with lifting Wini, who is attached to the other side of the toy, up onto the couch with him! Wini is also sleeping through the entire night! Which is great for Tim, no more getting up at 2 AM!
Below is a picture of a card I made last weekend at my stamping get-a-way! I didn't share it in the last blog because I made it for a card swap that I participated in and I didn't want to show it off until I sent the cards out for the meeting tonight and tomorrow! Our theme this month was "Do It With The Big Shot!" If you're not familiar with the Big Shot, it is a die cutting machine that is part of the Stampin' Up products. If anyone is interested in learning more about it I'd be glad to tell you more about how it works! But anyway, back to the card, with the Big Shot I cut out the leaves and the labeled hole and I used the Big Shot to emboss the leaves with the patterns, it may be hard to see the patterns tho... Hope you enjoy the card!
Thanks for stopping by!
Blessings!
