I am so sorry about not coming back online after the death of Makayla..I had a very hard year but I seem to be getting back into the swing of things again..let me update ya'll a little bit..

Well after Makayla passed both of my daughters had babies on the same day in March of 2007..Kristin had a baby girl "Qudaria" we call her "QUEY" for short..and Autumn had a baby boy "Cavelli" he was named after a young man that my children went to JHS with..he too had cancer and passed at 15 years old..we miss you Michael Cavelli you will always be with us.. So they are 14 months old now..we had their first birthday party at our new home which we bought last May 2007..it was wonderful..Grammy didn't miss one stone unturned for sure..we had farm animals,bouncy thingy(for the little ones, I don't know what u call them), riding the 4 wheelers, BBQ outside, and a huge Easter egg hunt..so many people came out to celebrate with us..truely wonderful..

These are a few of the picture we took..and yes I made those cakes for the babies! Not to shabby for a Grammy huh? It was a great time had by all..

UPDATE ON MAKAYLA!

Hey all you crocheters!
So Sorry I've been absent lately.. our family has been quite busy thru the holidays..I would like to thank all of you for keeping us in your prayers over the holidays..

well to begin-UPDATE ON MAKAYLA: She is doing well, but we have hit a few snags since I've last talk to you guys.. she has developed a spot on the front of her brain now.. the Drs. are treating it with Radiation to the front of the brain and the cancer is still in the spinal fluid so they are giving her direct CHEMO to the spinal cord..at last update from my daughter they checked the spinal fluid and it was clear so the spinal chemo is working..now we are in a waiting game..we are waiting for our beautiful *NEW* baby girl to arrive in March..they will be using the UMBILLICAL CORD(however ya spell it)blood for the STEM CELLS to hopefully cure our MAKAYLA! They say its a 63% chance of a cure for her..so its just the timing now..of course she will continue her treatments until then and then she'll go to ATLANTA for stem cell stuff..Wow its been a rough year for the family and we are just praying for a miracle..all the e-mails & prayers are helping so keep them coming our way! Thank to you all!

Ok, well on to crocheting: Gosh I made so many things for everyone this year..really I did but stupid me I was so busy I didn't take any pics..but I made alot of what I called Hoodie Scarves! Everyone loved them and even my husband wanted one for hunting..(he calls it a MARF- his MAN SCARF) LOL too funny!

UPDATE ON MAKAYLA: MaKayla is doing AWESOME..she finished up her last rounds of Chemotherapy in September and is now finishing up her 18 Radiation treatments as of this coming Tuesday..she is a trooper I tell ya..my daughter called me to come for a visit over the Thanksgiving holiday..I was thrilled. hopefully they will schedule her MRI while I'm visiting and we can find out the end results of all these treatments hopefully they have been successful and everyone please say a prayer that MaKayla is cancer FREE! I just know we will be issued this miracle!

Well in September my husband and I took a trip to GA for a visit and my dad came out from Colorado and we had a great time.

JESSE'S Dale Jr. #8 Walker Tote Bag!

This is my first try at the Afghan Stitch! After hours of rippin' it out, I just decided to start over & try fresh, so here it is JESSE'S DALE JR. # 8 Walker Tote! I figured with a broke leg and a walker he can't carry things around, so I made him this walker tote bag! I got the pattern from Cindy Murray's website. Thanks Cindy for graphing this out and thanks to Rita Canada for the Row Count! Its perfect! Jesse luvs it! It works great!
