Sunflowers #AfterMyCoffee

Our internet has been awful! Here I sit at the local library, wishing I was home with my family instead... Independence Day is coming and I want to make a layered cake this year. I don't know that we'll do anything really special, but a cake always makes everything special doesn't it?

I hope you all have a wonderful holiday remembering the sacrifices made for us to have the freedoms we do. I have a special post scheduled for the 4th. I hope you'll pop in sometime and read it. Let me know what you are doing. If you happen to think about it, please pray for our internet service. God cares about the little things in our lives and I know HE has a special plan for us and this blog. As silly as it may sound, with all the trouble going on in this big ol' world of ours. 
By the way, the July Flexi-of-the-month is a sunflower. I'm so excited about this one! The wooden and copper beads and fun sunflowers are perfect for a prairie girl. There are lots of other new colors and styles. Stop into my Lilla Rose site and visit. The headbands have new elastics that clip on and off and come in different lengths and colors to match head size & hair color. The bobby pins hold better than any I've ever used. I'll even be scheduling parties soon. If you are interested, let me know.

My favorites from last week:

After my Coffee! Opens at 11 am CST on Thursdays.  I've tried to make the Rules simple:

1. Family friendly, Devotional, Homemaking, Homesteading, or Homeschooling posts from Bible Believing sites.
2. Please link up only ONE POST url, not your basic site url.  (ie.. http://www.yoursite.com/post-name/).  It can be an OLD post.  Anything fun you'd like to share.
3. Share and comment on at least ONE other link. Following and linking back is appreciated, but not required.  (If I find you are NOT doing this, you will be banned.)
4. By linking, you are giving the hostess permission to use an image from your post. (Please make sure you own them. I don't want to be hit by the blogmom-police!)

***The hostess reserves the right to delete any link for ANY reason.
