I’m a Winner and Promises

People understand contests.  You take a bunch of kids throwing rocks at random and people look askance, but if you go and hold a rock-throwing contest – people understand that.

Oh my gosh… I just won something.  And not just something, I won this

The quilt I just won from "Trying Our Best." Gorgeous!

The quilt I just won from "Trying Our Best." Gorgeous!

absolutely gorgeous hand-made quilted blue star in the contest I mentioned in my last post.  Holy Moley… I never win anything.  And to win something this amazing and something that will mean so much to Huzzy and I… I just have no words to say.

So a big thank you to the Mrs. at Trying Our Best for offering this gorgeous quilt that will be hung in a place of honor (as soon as we have a home to hang it in, of course… hopefully soon!). And a huge thank you to the Mrs.’s mom, who made the quilt. Amazing.

As for the promises… I promise you will get photos tomorrow for Wordless Wednesday.  I haven’t decided if I’m going to do another set of wedding photos or if I’m going to do my commissioning ceremony photos.  Any preference?  Of course, the one that isn’t posted will be posted next week.

  1. congrats! I am so glad that it is going to a good home (or future good home).

    Enjoy :)

  2. Congratulations! Now I’m really hoping that the Mom of the Mrs. opens up an Etsy shop so I can get over my envy. ;-) Seriously, though, it’s especially appropriate that it went to a brand-new dual military family — it will hold such special meaning for both you and your husband.

    If you still haven’t decided which pictures to share for Wordless Wednesday, I’d love to see your commissioning ceremony photos.
