And now, the rest of the story!

I picked up Colon (aka Breast) Cancer Awareness Ribbons the other day and did some more stitching on IMG_2065it. I finally decided on DMC 820 to represent the solid dark blue color. Here is where I left things:

 

I am happy with my color choices, after switching up a little bit. Here are the colors I am using (all DMC): Variations 93 & 121; 3841, 820.

Oh, and I have to share pics of the kiddoes with you. Remember this little guy?

Your kitties are adorable -- Abu reminds me so much of my black kitty Matthew (now at the rainbow bridge).

I love your winter scene -- it's beautiful!

Farewell Daddy 3.8.1949 ~ 9.5.2012

Thank you for being my daddy for the last 40 plus years. You were my rock when I needed one. You were my best friend. You are now in our loving Lord’s arms and healed of your pain. Reuniting with long departed loved ones. And Mrs. Beasley too. I will miss the way you play your guitar and sing the songs you enjoy. I will miss our drives together finding new places to see and explore. I will miss you, daddy, the rest of my physical life. I look forward to the day we see each other again. Look for me running to you; into your arms. Michael Shawn Hayes March 8, 1949 to September 5, 2012 63 years young
