I almost hit one driving though you state at night. It was a shock to see one. I will never forget it as long as I live. I had never seen one in person. I don't know who was the most shook up me or the armadillo. LOL. Sorry, I had to share.

I love your grandchild's taste. She sure knows what she wants and early in life doesn't she? Gotta love those grandkids. They sure keep you hopping.

Your artistic challenge turned into a WOW quilt. I hope she lets you enter it into a show.

They are almost 6 hours away but coming in to see us in a few weeks.

Thanks to you and to all for your kind words!
