Happy Birthday

 I have been busy the last week making all kinds of things. I really missed my craft time while I was in Africa but it was made up with lots of love and hugs by my missionaries.

I made this cute little box card for my son for his birthday. We gave him a round of golf so I had to make a golf card.

This is a Lori Whitlock file and it is so quick and easy to make. I did make one change I used paper with clouds on it so I didn't cut out the clouds in the file. All the paper is American Crafts and the sentiment is a print and cut in the file. I folds flat and then opens up to stand on its own, so cute!!

Africa with Love

I know it has been a very long time since I posted anything. There are several reasons for that, the biggest is that I was in Ghana Africa for two years on a mission for our church again. I never thought I would even visit Africa let alone end up living there for four years. I can honestly say I love the African people!! They have a part of my heart forever! 

We had the opportunity to serve at the missionary training center in Accra Ghana. My husband was the President of the MTC. We had the most amazing experiences and I grew in so many ways. These pictures of just a tiny bit of our time there. I know this may sound crazy but as I am posting this I have tears streaming down my face. I love them and I miss them completely.

This Elder is from the Congo he was with us for 9 weeks learning English he is serving in Accra and he calls me almost every Monday on his P-day


I am happy to be home and with my family again but I will forever miss them and love them.
