Travel Approval!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

YES - Mark & Dani received their travel approval today & the agency has already faxed the information to the American Consulate to get that appointment set up. That should take between 1 - 6 days & then they will be given the travel dates so they can book our international flights. They have also been told those dates are expected to be 5 weeks from referral day(we did the math!) which is the week of March 10th!!! Yikes - I really need to get moving - that is only 2 weeks from today!
The shower was a great success & I think Dani was overwhelmed by all the beautiful gifts she got. We filled Mark's truck, Dani's SUV & my car to get everything back to their house. I have posted pictures here for anyone interested. I spent about two & a half hours helping her put clothes & things away while Mark assembled things. She is certainly going to be one of the best dressed girls in town!

Designer "doggy uggs"

Poor Molly has been having a hard time already this winter with the snow. She has good size pads on her feet which are "webbed" like a lab's foot.  When she goes in the snow it builds up in between her pads & forms a hard piece of almost ice-like snow.  Then she holds her foot up for someone to pull it out.  I decided to make her her own boots. Jessica had spent the night here as we went to First night for new years....more on that later.....so we "googled" how to make dog boots & then modified it to work for Molly.  Keep in mind these were boots you could make in 10 minutes.  It took approx 10 mins to measure Molly's feet.  Two hours later here's the results I did decide to make her 2 for each foot figuring she would be like any typical kid & lose a couple here & there. We had to go to W*lmart in the middle of the project to get velcro to make the fasteners.  We then made her wear them around the house for a while ...

Molly bike riding????

Popster has been teaching Molly to run along side of his bike.  It has been a slow process but she's finally getting it.  They start off very slowly.......  then speed up a little......  which is when she gets crazy& decides to "carry" the leash......  gradually she feels more comfortable....  then she begins to gallop.... & the ears start to flap!!!!!

Today we have a riddle???

 What do you get when you cross a pile of scraps, a sewing machine, a woman possessed, & a husband on a week long golf trip?  The following.........  This is a tablecloth for my kitchen table....forgot to take the finished pic  Cover for my sewing machine...very proud of this as I quilted the whole thing.  This is the back....got tired of doing squares!  Matching cover for my serger.  I meant to post these a while ago & must have forgot.  I have done a couple other projects since then which I will get around to posting soon.  Had computer problems so I have some catching up to do Love
