Please pray for my Dad.

On monday January 16th my father was hit by a car while in a gas station parking lot. He was walking to pay for gas when a 16 year old girl backed up into him. He had brain surgery immediately to remove a blood clot and to try and control the bleeding in his brain.They are not giving us a good prognosis and with each passing day his survival rate is declining. They now have him under 50%. He has brain and brain stem damage as well as pneumonia and infections. I believe in the power of prayer. My heart is broken and I cannot even begin to think of him not being here on this earth with us. It`s just killing me. Please I ask for you to pray for Patrick.

I`ve been away so long.....

Wow it feels like forever since I`ve been online. It took me forever to remember my password to blogger....LOL thats when you know it`s been way too long, well and dust between the keys ;) Hmmmm so whats kept me away...well I ventured out to a full time job last september and by the time I get home and feed hubby and the kids well lets just say the couch calls my name. The upside summers off from work. This past summer hubby and I have taken up kayaking, so we spent alot of time with the girls at the beach. It`s so relaxing I just love it! Although the first time I really didn`t even want to go out on it. I was afraid of the open waters, but now I`m off and running to do it actually lifting and strapping the thing on the roof of car myself. We also did alot of fishing just not alot of catching..LOL Thank God thats not a food source we rely on for survival. Here`s a pic of my youngest and I. I`m looking forward to the nice weather again just to get back out there.




I also missed creating dolls for ebay and thought it time for me to try and get back in the groove, not always an easy thing to do. I listed dolls yesterday and made 2 raggedy Ann`s today. It felt nice being back in front of the sewing machine again creating. I told hubby my goal is to set aside an hour each evening to work on some dolls. I`d be fooling myself if I alloted more time so for now thats what I will set out to do. I don`t know how all you gals do it juggling full time work, creating and families. I too will give it a try and squeak some time in. I`ve missed all my ebay friends too, they must think I`ve just fallen off the face of the earth, well I pretty much did, but I hope to find my way back. I`ve missed you all.

Well here`s my two girls I brought to life today:

Tonights the airing date for Extreme Home Makeover.

The home that was chosen to be the recipient of the Extreme Home Makeover in our area will air this evening. The girls enjoyed watching them build this beautiful home for the deserving family. I can`t wait to see what they did with the inside.

Happy Monday.

Wow the weather here has been gorgeous and I just love having the windows open and the fresh air flowing in. With Fall moving in starts the new tv line up season. I can`t wait to see Mike and Molly, that looks like it could be a good one. Of course Greys Anatomy will be playing here every thursday night. I can`t wait for that one! A few other of my fav`s are Gary Unmarried, The Adventures of the old Christine and Rules of Engagement.

How about all of you. What are some of the shows your looking forward too? Oh yeah by the way the Extreme Homemakeover that took place a town over from me is scheduled to air on october 3rd for those of you who would like to see it.

On another note I just updated my ebay with 2 new dolls. Here`s a sneak peek at them.

Two new gals over on ebay...

Yay it`s friday. So glad the weekend is here. I`m not sure how I will spend it yet, but know that I`ll be sleeping in tomorrow. Can you believe the leaves are already starting to change colors :( Not that I should complain. My friend Nancy lives in Canada and has experienced 35 degree temps and snow. Yup you heard me right....SNOW. Crazy right. So yes I`ll enjoy the changing of the leaves and cooler temps.

With the changing of the leaves so rich and beautiful I decided to create Addie in a great fall homespun dress. She`s more of a prim girl compared to my others, but she too has lots of character.



and then there`s Faith the angel. She sure is sweet.



You may find them both on my ebay.
Here`s wishing you all a fabulous weekend!

Primitive Stars...

With the new Country Sampler out got me thinking Christmas. I know I know it`s early we haven`t even gotten to Halloween yet. I was thinking the same thing, but thats whats already on the cover! Each year everything seems to rush along at a faster pace.

I decided to whip up some sets of Primitive star ornies. Although they would look perfect trimming that prim Christmas tree I thought they would look just as charming year round hanging off a cupboard or tucked inside a dough bowl. I listed one set on my ebay and another in my KSGP Shoppe. If you should need more then one set feel free to email me, I`d be more then happy to whip up another set.



What are some of your favorite ornaments? What themes do you decorate in for the holidays. I`d love to hear from you.

MY KSGP Shoppe has been updated.

Happy sunday everyone. It`s seems to be a gloomy day here in NY. No sunshine to be seen :( That makes a perfect day to complete 2 doll projects that I have started. Here`s a peek at what you may find at my ksgp shoppe. Be sure to check out what the other gals have too!
