HPC Yahoo Challenge

Ok whenever HP Crafts on Yahoo posts a challenge, I never ever have any ideas for what to make -- until this week when  posted the newest challenge.  You've accidently dropped your favorite item in a batch of shrinking solution.  I no sooner read that when my mind started screaming out an idea and so a Thursday night trip to Hobby Lobby for the right yarn and a bit of plotting, planning, guessing, crocheting, frogging later I have posted my entry on the group site!

So below is my post to the group describing my entry and the entry :D

Below please find the contents of a recent howler received by the
Weasley twins.

FRED AND GEORGE WEASLEY!

JUST WHAT DID YOU THINK YOU WERE DOING SWITCHING OUT THE LAUNDRY WATER
IN MY CAULDRON FOR SHRINKING SOLUTION? HOW DARE YOU PULL SOMETHING
LIKE THAT ON ME, YOUR OWN MOTHER! JUST LOOK WHAT YOU DID TO MY
FAVORITE SWEATER!

Love,
Mother

Happy Anniversary Today

After a great Palm Sunday service with the dedication of the new lightup outdoor cross that was donated to our church, I took Joe out for Chinese after, looked over at him as we ate and said, "By the way, Happy Anniversary!"  His eye went wide, his color drained and his mind worked overtime wondering what he was forgetting and how much trouble it was getting him into.  "No it's not... May"  (our wedding Anniversary).  I smiled.  "Happy Anniversary"  watching him continue to try to remember what he forgot.  Finally,  I gave in and told him.  "For you, dear.  Happy Ordination Anniversary"  For it was five years ago today, Joe was ordained as a minister and began his ministry as a pastor.


HAPPY ANNIVERSARY - 5 YEARS ORDAINED, JOE!

I love you. :)
