I figure we have a craft group so we might as well have a collectors group where we can talk about our collections, post pictures of finds, etc. I have the following collections: Vintage Purses (and a few compacts) Prayer Lady figurines Handmade Marbles Fire king Primrose (and some other 50s...

What do you know about finding and collecting Erzgebirge wooden figurines. I saw some today, and it totally gave me the collectors itch. Can you still find them at sales at a reasonable price or are they too collectable?

Holly seems to be having some issues again. Please, join me in praying for her. I know it's easy to dismiss her and mock her, but we really should pray for her soul and mental health. Hail Mary, full of grace the Lord is with thee. Blessed art thou amongst women, and blessed is the fruit...

Baby Ambrose is here! He was born on June 26th at 12:31 pm. He is absolutely adorable and we are so in love. I probably won't be on too much as I'm healing, and enjoying time with my baby. God has greatly blessed us. He weighed in at 9 lbs 7 oz, 21" long 14 3/4 head 14 1/4 chest I'm...

Just wanted to let people know that might not be following my big baby thread. I'll post pics when Ambrose is born, but until then I'm taking a break from cf. Please pray for us as I approach my due date. Thanks!

I'm watching the Today Show, and New Kids on the Block is performing. I loved them when I was a kid. But, they came on with these creepy white masks, and then they take them off and start singing Hangin' Tough. And, Danny Walberg is wearing his cap to the side all old school. I seriously...

I want to post this with a caveat. I'm not posting this because I have any deep seated problems with Islam, but rather because I'm interested in how culture is passed on and preserved. This video presents an interesting question: Has Christianity contracepted its culture out of existence...

So I'm watching the Cardinals/Cubs game, and they have some fool sing Take Me Out to the Ball Game who seriously had to look at screen for the words?!? If you don't know the words you shouldn't be the one leading the song! But, what should I expect it was a cub fan after all. :P Go Cards!!!!!!

Today is my birthday, and Aaron gave me the sweetest present. I woke up to a clean kitchen and living room, and then the kitchen table had a dozen roses, dum dum suckers, kick kacks, and jelly bellies. He also had honey mustard pretzels in my present box. I've been craving all these things...

I thought some on OBOB might get a chuckle out of this quote. It's from a letter she wrote to a friend: "The Church’s stand on birth control is the most absolutely spiritual of all her stands and with all of us being materialists at heart, there is little wonder that it causes unease. I wish...

I wanted to thank everyone for all your prayers. I had a great weekend with my mom and Aaron's parents. I got pretty sick on Saturday night, and was exhausted by the end of the weekend, but I was able to enjoy the many things we did. Aaron and I are so incredibly blessed, and our little boy...

As most of you know I've been super sick and fatigued my whole pregnancy. My mom is coming in to town this weekend, and I would really love to have some energy to be able to do things like go out and show her the crib we have picked out and go to a local consignment sale for baby stuff. Right...

BOY

So, Aaron and I went to the doctor today, and the baby was nice so we found out the sex. Time to guess: Is it a boy or a girl?
