I Won! and This and That....

Yay! I won Bingo in my ILCS group this time. It's been forever since I've even been close and I was so surprised when it happened today. You know, sometimes, it's just the little things in life that can brighten your day. :)

This is a needlepoint freebie I stitched by Laura J. Perin. I changed the colors around a bit & I haven't decided how to finish it. Possibly a flatfold or a small pillow? Canvas isn't quite as easy to manipulate as fabric so suggestions are welcome!
I've been writing periodically about happenings in our family with weddings and graduations this year, and I'd like to show my youngest DD.
Here's DD with Indiana in 2000 and Montana this year....

This is my whimsical, perky, honest, and definitely funny baby. Forgive me for seeming proud, but she's a sweetie. She's also doing really well in college and hopes to finish a semester early. We're blessed to be able to see her and BF fairly often, as they're not too far away.
When I mention whimsical, I just love this costume she came up with this year. Last year she was a Smurf. You don't get the full effect as this isn't the entire costume, but you get the drift....


Here at the recent wedding of our close friends over Christmas....


And just playing around with the camera outside....


And I promise to quit posting pictures of our new puppy, as you're probably getting tired of them, but I do have one last picture to show for a while.

Now tell me, how could you not love this face????
