Road Trip Today

My husband and I will be gone today and tomorrow Nov. the 7th and 8th. He will have a surgery today in Oklahoma City witch is about 100 miles from here. I will be back to answer emails on Thurs. night the 8th of Nov.

Our Son-in-law is driving us to the hospital. Ok City has so much traffic that it scares me to death. So our plan is to drive from here in Holdenville to Norman to my daughters. She lives on the OU campus. My son-in-law is a EMT and works for EMSA there in Ok City and takes patients to the hospital all the time. Don't know why it is but I don't like to ride with any of the kids. Don't they know any fear?????????????? I'll have my eyes closed the whole time and have prayed for traveling mercy for this trip.

I will so glad to see home again. Judy

A Story About My Little Duck

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Once upon a time in a big bright green meadow,
A little duck walked - a duck wearing a hair bow.

The sun was shining and all was so bright,
And in this meadow of flowers, the duck flew a kite.

Then all of the sudden, the wind came blowing by!
And the little duck’s hair bow blew into the sky.

“Wait!” Cried the duck, “Don’t blow anywhere!
Oh, now what to do? What shall I wear in my hair?”

The little duck let her kite fall to the ground.
She would not rest until her hair bow was found!

See, her hair bow was special, something no one else had
It wasn’t magical, but it still made her glad.

She’d made it herself with love and with care
Oh, she wanted her hair bow to be back in her hair!

But then in the meadow she heard a nice sound,
A little girl giggling and jumping around.

“Look what I found!” she told her mother nearby.
“Can I keep it? Please? It’s so pretty, and fell straight from the sky!”

“Well,” Said her mother, “I suppose that you may.
It is a pretty bow. Yes, a beautiful bow for a beautiful day!”

So the little girl now had the bow in her hair,
The little duck was sad but then giggles came back through the air.

“Courtney”, for that was the little girl’s name,
“Yes, that bow is much better for you and your games.”

The little duck liked sharing that bow
And she thought it’d be neat to share more, you know.

So that little duck makes hair bows with love and with joy
And gives them to little girls to wear and enjoy.

And now, one for you! Your own bow, oh, what luck!
Made with love, from me, your friend, Mrs. Duck

This Little Duck Needs A Name

I love to embroidery. I'm making some hair bows with this adorable little duck embroidered on them. My daughter that is a writer is going to write some Childrens books to offer with the hair bows. We have not settled on a name as yet. I like Homer and she thinks it needs to be a girls name.

Any ideas are welcome. Have a great day, Judy

Here They Come

Just to be fair, Sarah does have a pretty smile
Here she is with her Mama, my Daughter

I sure don't want to leave out the other twin

Here is Aubrey with his Mama. Gosh these kids are

so wonderful. Their parents are beaming over them.

Sarah don't smile so big honey!!!!!!!!!!!!
There is something about posing with the

The hairbows I Guess.

Oh my gosh, don't smile Sarah PLEASE

I am blessed with 14 Grandchildren but I live about 85 to 100 miles from all of them. My daughter in Glenpool Oklahoma has TWINS that are 3 years old, a girl and a boy. Sweetest kids you have ever seen. And FULL of it. The little girl is just like her Mother was, bossy, too smart and hipper. The little boy is layed back and as sweet as he can be.

If my kids ever start reading my blogs, I'm in trouble. They will be here this afternoon and will stay for 3 days. They are so excited but on the other hand not really used to staying away from home. I would like to take pictures of Sarah wearing hairbows and post them on my website but its so funny that this little girl with the beautilful face and wonderful personality has a problem with smiling for the camera.

These are beautiful twins although I have a spare bedroom and had it ready for them the last time they came. Guess what, they won't sleep there. They had to sleep in my bed oh course and when I got them to sleep there was no room for me in there so I ended up sleeping on the sofa. Great at my age my bones won't conform to that sofa. Well here we go~~~~~~~~~~~~

You Gotta Step Out There

I was looking through the Ebay auctions last night and saw a auction that really surprised me. In her auction for a wonderful hair bow holder she used the words as seen on TV. I guess I was thinking she was reselling these but that wasn't the case at all. She invented this style and has a patient pending. She entered her invention in a contest and won a chance to go to New York and show her invention on Good Morning America and now she is selling them on Ebay. I was so happy for her I had to email her. She was so nice to talk to and you know she didn't seem a bit nervous on TV. I would have been a train wreck. Here is a link to her auctions and website. If you go to her website there is a clip of her TV appearance. A great way to organize your daughters hair accessories and I think would make a great Christmas gift. She already has bids on her hair bow holder, it's a great product. She is selling them for $19.00, so afordable, I wish her tremendous success. You just wait and see what she comes up with next. Her name is Joy, go over to her ebay auction and email her and let her know she is doing a great job. Click on watch this item and lets see how many watchers she can get.

TOTE CRAZY

Have you ever made things to put on your website or auctions and then you start thinking.
(Feel guilty about selling them because one of the kids might want them?) I get tickled every time I make a tote, either I think (well I might like to carry that one) or I bet one of the girls might want that one.) Then I think maybe I better not sell these you know Christmas in coming soon.
I like to draw out my own patterns and I really love to do that. I might dwell on a pattern for days. I don't know how these designers make so many totes and put them on their websites!!!
Oh course that was my plan to sell them. After 50 years of sewing I have learned a few things. Children's dresses and dresses for myself. Can't seem to produce anything though.
I've made items for very high end company's but can't seem to load up my website.

Of course the hair bows. I do love to make hair bows and sell plenty of those. I think my daughters have all the hair bows they can stand for their little ones.

My little 18 month old granddaughter is my model allot because she is around more than the others. She has learned the routine. I wait on her to get here and plan for pictures for my auctions and website. She knows when I put the new bows in her hair I'm going to get out the camera. The chase is on then. I have to chase her all over the place to get a shot.
Sometimes she wins out. I put one of them on my website the other day. She was in full flight. I'm thinking about putting all those out-takes on my website someday, and there is plenty of them. So funny

Here's a great link for free patterns. If your a pattern junkie you will love this.......
