Presentation Day & Cross-Stitching

This morning, we had our presentation. Actually, it was at 1 pm but I had to get there early to get stuff done. We ended up with a couple veterans an hour early. Patrick was there even earlier than that. So, it all worked out. I just had to play catch up. 

We honored 7 veterans. Two where Father and Son. Those 2 are on the right. Kreft family. Not in order but they were: Andrew Short, Bryan Barbee, Ray Kreft, Joshua Kreft, James Nelson, Brain Cox, and Aaron Allen. 

We will try to get the other 2 later. It was a little later than usual, but we got it moving. 

Came home and was hungry. Patrick was going to do a pork roast but found out as I was coming in the house, that he had a pad on the bottom of the roast when he was brazing it. I guess Alexa told him it wasn't any good because of the chemicals in the pads. So, we had to start over with supper plans. 

I decided I wasn't going to do all my QOV stuff that I do when I get home, so I worked on my beads for my cross stitch instead. 


I added the beads to the shoulders and worked up to the head. I'm just above the nose. Then I can get the headdress done and call it done. I'm so close I can taste it. Tomorrow I will be fighting with myself on whether I need to do my QOV stuff or do my bead work. I hope I can do both. Time will tell. 

It felt good to be Happy Stitching/Happy Quilting!
