Some sad news

Hello everyone…sorry I have been MIA lately…my nephew was in a very bad car accident last Thursday and is in a coma and that’s all we have been thinking about, plus I have had tons of family staying with us since Memorial Day. I hope to get back to blogging regularly soon. Until then I ask for your prayers for him…his name is Weston Cummings…you may remember all my blog posts about my brother dying of cancer almost five years ago? Well this is one of his sons….tragedy continues to hit this family of 8 kids..but they stay strong and faithful no matter what. Weston is the tallest boy in this picture with a few of his brothers. Two other brothers are serving missions for our church…The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints…one in Africa and the other in Chile.

If you want to follow his progress on facebook they have set up a special page called Prayers for Weston https://www.facebook.com/groups/656037147811028/?fref=nfThank you for your thoughts and prayers.Karin 🙂  

Karins Kottage

Welcome to Karins Kottage! There is always something fun going on! You would think after becoming an empty nester couple that our nest would be very quiet and empty but our Kottage nest is usually more full than what we started out with! You might find me hosting a birthday party or graduation party and a baby shower on the same weekend or a big outdoor get together with 25 of our friends and family in the backyard or maybe I might be in the kitchen trying out a new recipe for my hubby and I to grill on the BBQ for a quiet night for the two of us. I am passionate about entertaining and setting a beautiful table! I may or may not have an addiction to cloth napkins and fun salad plates oh and goblets too! I think I will always have a home decorating DIY project in the works as long as my hubby is on board with me haha. We have painted A LOT in the 6 homes we have owned in the 35 years that we have been married as well as re-done multiple pieces of furniture, added wall and ceiling treatments, replaced lights, bathroom fixtures and even tiled floors! I have sewn what seems like a million window treatments for our home as well as for family, made slipcovers, and duvets and even a formal dress or two!

  • Oh Karin, I am so sorry - so tragic for such a younger person.

    Praying for you all - keep the faith, God always has a plan, even though we may not know it yet.
