Okee dokee...Wally World found the missing pack of pics...the storms are passed and I have a "quiet moment"...so here they are folks!!! Thanks everyone for making this such a special event in our lives, Rein, Jnebug, Sewbusy, the quilts were just beautiful and EVERYONE loved them!!! Thanks for all the well wishes and prayers too!! Y'all are so very special to me and my family! Love and hugs to each and everyone of you!!


There are quite a few pics...so it will take several posts, be patient with me please, the pc and I don't always see eye to eye in these matters LOL...

Rein created this beauty. It went to Diana, my oldest daughter's boss that organized and ran the whole sheeebang.

more quilts from sewbusy...

My "mature" (her words LOL) neighbor is the proud owner of this one. She has her room done in purple and has this proudly displayed on her bed as we speak. (She's in her 70's by-the-way LOL)

One more quilt...this is the one I made...you're all probably sick of seeing this one LOL

Levi for Mayor t-shirt...this went for $98 and whole bunch of laughs and fun. The lady with the mic is Diana, the organizer of the benefit. (rein, the lady with your quilt)

The gazebo that Ben, Levi's baby brother, and his friend made. My sister was the big winner of this one @ a $600 price tag. But it is sooo well worth it!! She's started vining flowers growing up the sides and its just lovely!!

Jbsstrawberry, It was very nice to see the pictures. I am glad that it turned out nicely. If you don't mind me asking what was the benefit for?

Everyone that donated, thank you. It is very kind for people to do so.

Kyia :D

Loretta, you got that right!!!

Kyiav10, the benefit was for my nephew Levi. He was diagnosed with stage 3 Hodgekins last December. The benefit was for medical expenses not covered by insurance so he could continue his chemo. They've decided to give him one more treatment, this coming Friday, then he will be done with treatments. After that he'll have another body scan to make sure it took. I'll keep you posted!

I loved looking at the pictures but I too was wondering what the Benefit was for. Never mind, I see the post before mine. Explaining.
