Thursday at My House

I've been busy stitching candle mats and am starting some of these tags too....I really think these are cute..the ones above are not made by me but from the Primitive Stitches website....got to give Rhonda credit......I will show you what mine look like when they are done.....a friend is going to two craft shows in November and asked if I wanted to put some of my things with hers so I am giving it a try......the tag patterns I ordered would be suitable to hang on a prim tree.........I always put a small tree in our kitchen/dining room area and hang cooky cutters and now some prim tags....

I am having a little empty nest blues...both boys are out at the dog rescue...Matt's been working out there too, and staying with Don in the trailer at night........I tell myself it could be alot worse...I know they are busy and safe.....I also know they are just about grown and its inevitable...I even cried a bit yesterday.......life is always adjustment, isn't it?

They came home last night and I realized the Lord was working with them..Don has always thought Matt was a little lazy...He know realizes what a good worker Matt is and told me so...he says he's working up a storm..shoveling, cleaning, racking, trimming trees and bushes, repairing fences and dog runs....Don now has a greater respect for his younger brother...Matt is learning too that Don has alot of responsibility and handles it well. Elizabeth (the owner) is pleased as there was so much to be done, and Don can't do it + do running of the rescue too...
