    CRYSTAL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Look what just happened for our family..... the TWINS have arrived. Maybe now I can think about something else. I promise I'll register a team tomorrow morning. I'm so glad that you prompted me!!

    They are about 6 hours old in this pic:

    Faith

    Those babies look so cute and healthy.  My niece had twins back in June.  Were yours full term?  Our twins were 2 months early they had to spend 5 weeks in the hospital.  They are doing great now.  What are their names?  I will be a Grandma for the first time in August I just can't wait.

    Congratulations

    Sherry: thank you. They are sweeties. She was able to carry them for 38 weeks, so very nearly full term.... what a thrill that they are so very happily pink.

    Their names are Trevor Riley and McKenna Evelyn.

    Where do you live in Ohio? I'm east of Columbus/Reynoldsburg, but living in with DD in Pataskala till all of the dust settles.

    Faith

    I live near Canton,  I like the names, I am happy that they were almost full term, having them in the hospital long term is really tough on the parents.  I hope all continues to go well.

    OK OHIO Friends and beyond!!! I have opened a team for the Columbus Komen Walk on Sat., May 17th. It is entitled: "Cancer Takes Guts" and is named in honor of our dear friend CTG, Laura who passed earlier this year.

    I had the great good fortune to have dinner with Mr.CTG in Feb., about 3 weeks after Laura's funeral -- in FL, while on vacation. I told him then that I would walk in her honor.

    I welcome ALLLLLLLLLLLLLL of those who want to help to stamp out this suffering to join us. It would be so great to meet other OH gals who are regulars here. Plans to unfold as we see who can participate.

    Are they precious or what?? Congratulations Grandma!

    I am looking forward to the walk and mom is too. Hopefully she is well enough to walk if not she will be there with me and not walk.

    Hugs

    hi sandy!!

    craziness here w/these gorgous babeez!!

    i was able to take my 2 yr old grandson to the komen walk.....quite an amazing day....... so emotional. moving. over-whelming.

    sandy.... i am 'something' of a quilter.... contemporary fabric playing artiste.  LOL. i have created the illusrations for my picture book from fabric/brights and am working on a second book/illustrations/fabric -- tho this one is much more representational in it's 'look'...... the first is totally designs

    would love to meet. have now 'spoken' to 4 or 5 quilt guilds -- sharing my story/journey/process!

    i speak nationally to teachers/librarians: fun, fun

    p.s. i started a thread at the bottom of the list -- under inspirational stories, called blessing scarf...... go see it & if anyone would like to get involved in crafting them for others PM me
