If you are visiting my blog to see if you won a prize, please forgive me.

I don't want to sound depressing, and I usually don't post about the bad things in life, but there were some fatal tragedies that happened in my family on Saturday. My husband and family in LA were sweet to tell me after my fun day at Quilters' Day. One was a friend of the family and the others were my cousin and his wife(both of them), in seperate situations.

I wouldn't have told you, but since some of you are visiting my blog to see if you won, I thought you would want to know.

I have the camera ready to upload photos of my fun day at Quilters' Day and the fun things I bought for prizes for you.

Thank you for understanding. Please keep the families that are involved in your prayers.

Amanda
