Running a bit late getting my post up today. It's been hectic, with babysitting two young granddaughters at once whilst trying to craft with one of my daughters.

It's our son's birthday today. They got back about 10:30 -11p.m. and now everyone else has gone home or gone to bed and I can finally come and write this up!
