More from Colorado

These photos show a darling sweater, 2 burp clothes, some wash cloths and "thumb blankies" and another 2 blankets.

I hope the donor of these lovely gifts will comment here or on facebook and let me know who she (or he) is so that I can properly say Thank you!


Beautiful things from Colorado!






A box arrived yesterday from Broomfield, Colorado. The donor did not include her name, but the box was filled with gorgeous hand-crafted items for the kids! It will take me two posts to be able to post photos of all the lovely gifts!!!

Shown here are many bibs and 4 of the blankets that were sent. See the next post for more photos!
