My Exchange Made It and I'm Back from Rome





Suzanne emailed me and said she had received my HoE Reindeer. I was concerned that she might be in the flooded area but she is safe. My pictures aren't the best. I used a pattern from Daffycat. Instead of making french knots I used beads. I stitched my piece on opalescent fabric which gives it a little sparkle. I want to make some for me and my family.

I had a great time in Rome and here are two pictures from many.

This is a picture of the Colosseum and the hallway leading to the Sistine Chapel.It was a trip of a lifetime. Now we will take 41 parents and middle schoolers to England this summer, with 2 days in Paris. It should be a great trip with lots of learning. I have Honor Choir to rehearse tomorrow so I need to get my rest. Things will be busy busy to the end of school. Until next time, peace and blessings.

What a lovely little ornament! Wow Rome! I just did a 3rd world experience in the D.R. with 10 studnets. I've got a loooot of pictures on my blog about it.

London and Paris will be awesome
