Watermelon Roses

Today has been an amazing day. It was my Washington mom's 50th birthday. A great celebration of a life who has made such an impact for the good in so many lives. Anita Knight is a woman who deserves a statue and a book to be written about her. She is one of the unsung hero's of the faith who grand parade may not be until heaven, but she contiunes serving her family and Saviour faithfully.

Part of my gift for her birthday was making a watermelon rose. It was my first attempt at with one watermelon. So grant it, I was really thankful that it turned out alright. It took about two and half hours to carve it, but it was totally worth it.
