Done.

well folks, i know i'm a bad blogger. i just can't get motivated to write. maybe it is because i am busy. maybe it is because i find many other things to fill up my time. maybe it is because i don't blog at my new job?

ok. big announcement: the quilt is DONE. geoffrey's grandmother and i finished it back in december. i've been really secretive with this quilt (remember this post? quilting underground). i had a reason for that: i wanted to give it to my good friends Adrienne and Scott for their wedding! the goal back then (two years ago) was to give it to them at their wedding on June 27, 2009. ha! quilting is hard work! just when they thought they were never getting a wedding present, i showed up with a surprise just after christmas!

it was so fun to work on this with geoffrey's grandmother. i will always cherish the memories of working on this with her--quilting is a great way to get to know someone.

you wanna see it, don't you? well, here ya go:





Oh yeah, the other thing I'm DONE with: DEBT!! DONE DONE DONE. WE'RE DEBT FREE!! AND Geoffrey and I were on the Dave Ramsey Show last week to tell him about it. i will post the recording in a later blog. it was pretty sweet. now that we are DONE with debt and i am done with the quilt: it's time to save up and buy a house. yessss.

Prayers for Ty

Hey blog world...please add this sweet family to your prayer list: http://www.ourlittleman-ty.blogspot.com/

Lauren is one of my friends that I have lost touch with over the past few years because of college and life, but we were in preschool together and she is one of my oldest friends. Please pray.
