Gorgeous Weekend in Ohio!

We've been truly blessed this weekend with weather warmer than usual. It trees and flowers and blooming and coloring our world overnight it seems. We looked at our crab apple tree on evening and it had blooms that were all opened the next day. The pink blossoms look and smell wonderful. Our perennial garden is filling with flowers again. I will get some pictures soon of our Spring here in Ohio.

I was busy making birthday cards for three family members who will celebrate birthdays Sunday. I used the same layout for each but different background stamps. My FIL will be 80 soon so we'll celebrate his big birthday in a special family gathering. The other cards are for a niece and nephew. My DH wanted monkey theme since his family monkey's around so much.




I had to try the SCS tri-fold pocket card. It was a true challenge for me but I like how it turned out. I am trying to use up some of my SU decorator papers that I only have 1 piece or less. Once I do that I can buy more!

This little bunny is going to friends who have tried for several years to have children. They were at the point of making an appt. with a fertility dr. to do medication and she became pregnant! They think it's twins too........God is soooooooooo good. It was His miracle, not medical science that made this happen. I've had so many times in my life where I find that once I surrender something to him that I've been struggling with, it happens. All I have to do is give it to him. Not an easy thing to do I must say.

May you feel God near you today and every day. May you receive comfort and caring.
Thanks for visiting today.
Hugs and Blessings,
