There is a quote: "LIFE IS NOT ABOUT WAITING FOR THE STORMS TO PASS.... IT'S ABOUT LEARNING TO DANCE IN THE RAIN."
With 12 children and 5 adopted from Russia, we have had challenges and trials along with our joys. We have decided that we must
learn how to "dance in the rain." We must notice and acknowledge the joys and miracles in our lives.
They exist daily -- we just need to make sure we do not miss them!! This blog is to remind us of these miracles and joys!

MAY 25, 2015 -- FABRIC MARKET

FABRIC MARKET TRIP
MAY 25, 2015

Today Dad and I left as soon as the kids did to go to the fabric market to figure out duvet covers and tablecloths.  We stopped by the bank on the way and I saw the funniest thing!  There was an armored truck outside the bank and people were standing around waiting for the "money drop" to finish so that they could go in.  There by the back of the truck stands a young man with a huge machine gun.  Next to him are 2 older ladies and an older man.  The one lady, in a red shirt, was talking to the security man and was hitting him on the arm and laughing, etc.  It was crazy!  She was teasing or something his young man with the huge machine gun!  Not what I expected to see!


Dad and I decided on 3 duvet covers.  This green stripe and floral is one.  The second is with a Chinese fabric and the third is the picture with the eggplant and vanilla white.  I am super excited!

After the market, we made a stop by the noodle shop to get some chow mien and a new rice/beef dish that we tried last time.  Yummy!!!
