Day 17 Photo A Day Challenge: The Floor

Today's photo challenge was the floor.  I never give much thought to the floor, although I'm thankful it's there… This particular floor is in the sanctuary of my church. 
A few years ago our church bought an old school building.  The flooring in our sanctuary was hardwood ( the old gym floor).  We gently took it up, bundled it and sold it on eBay.  One of my good friends poured the concrete for the new floor, and stamped it.  Then members of our church crawled on the floor and colored in the little black dots to make them look like nails.  I stand, walk, and look at this floor a couple of times a week, and each time I do I think about how much love went into this flooring.  

Day 16 Photo a Day Challenge: Something I Made

I could have take a picture of at least 5 of the children that live with me.. (with God and The Man's help).. I really wanted to take a photo of this cute thing I made my friend… but since I know she reads my blog, and I haven't given her the gift.. I couldn't do that.  So here are a few things I've made…

I painted and glazed this cute Santa teapot.

This is the counted cross stitch I made many a moon ago… before the man and I got married.
