Holden's Hope Miss Ludi Mae

Hi all! This is a little late in posting but I wanted yall to meet Miss Ludi Mae. Isn't she just a doll?? I think I could just eat her up! This sweet little girl just turned one not long ago and has the sweetest family. I am friends with her wonderful Aunt Ali and she asked me to share her story with all of you and I am glad she did. You see, this sweet little girl needs lots of prayers for her and her family.
Back in December, sweet Ludi Mae's Daddy, Stephen, was involved in a horrible car accident and went to be with Jesus. This sweet little girl lost her Daddy way before she should have. I can't even pretend to imagine what she is going thru or her amazing Mommy. What a strong woman! When I asked her Mommy, Dori about writing this post for Ludi Mae, I asked her to give me a little bit of background of her and Stephen's life together and this is what she had to say:


Alright, here's a little of our story:
In 1996, Stephen & I met in Geometry class. In a very short time, we became very best friends. We shared a locker, he helped me with boy problems, went out to dinner, etc. etc. In the spring of 1998, he asked me to go to Prom with him, I mean why not? we were best buds. We didn't want it to be weird, so our next dinner together we called it a "date". The rest is history. From Feb 28, 1998 we were inseparable. We dated throughout high school. He graduated in 1999 and started working, I finished high school in 2000 and went off to college. Finally after 8 years of dated, we tied the knot in 2006. We were always just crazy in love. We cooked together, threw cold water on each other in the shower, danced after dinner in our living room, had breakfast in bed, laughed until we cried. Love seems so simple for what we had. In 2008 we decided to try and have a baby. We didn't have much luck, got really discouraged and frustrated, but finally in April 2010, our bundle of joy arrived. Ludi Mae Davis was undoubtedly the "apple of our eyes". We loved being parents and we loved raising a child together. Everything she did was perfect and precious to us. Stephen was my soul-mate, my rock, my spiritual leader, my friend, my confidant, my love. He is now away on vacation with Jesus.

Isn't Dori just amazing?? What an amazing love story they have! Please lift up this sweet girl and her Mommy and their whole family for strength!

This is the sweet outfit that her sweet Aunt Ali ordered for her for her birthday present.

Thank you for stopping in to hear about and pray for this sweet little girl!

Custom things

 Here at Holden's Hut, I LOVE making custom things! Holden's BFF Campbell is turning 2 soon and his birthday party is going to be Toy Story themed. I wanted to make something for Holden that was either cowboy or astronaut themed. Well when we were reading a shape book they had the cutest picture or a spaceship and I knew I that was it and I wanted to make something like it.
 And this is what I came up with! An adorable rocket shirt just right for the party!
 Then I flipped it over and added his name to the back. : ) Just a little something extra.
 This little onesie Holden wore on Valentines Day but would be perfect any day
And this shirt I just love! I saw a shirt kinda like it on tv and thought I could make something like it. And here it is!

Do you have a design that you would like on a shirt that you don't see? Just shoot me an e-mail and I will get it done for you!

Holden's Hope- Miss Kylie Grace

Meet Miss Kylie Grace. I just can not get over how adorable this sweet little girl is! This sweet little girl is only 2 years old and until a few months ago was a perfectly healthy, normal little girl. Then her parents started to notice that she was having a little trouble with her coordination so they decided she needed to go to the doctor. This is when they got the shock of their life that their beautiful little Kylie Grace had a tennis ball size tumor and cyst on her brainstem. 
Since then this sweet little girl has undergone surgery and has already had one dose of chemo and even recently was able to go to the zoo! Please pray with me and this family as their little girl fight the fight that no child should ever have to fight!
To follow along with how Kylie is doing you can follow her website HERE.

Lucky as a Leprachaun!

A little boy I know will soon be 2 and of course I had to make him an extra special shirt for his big day!
And since he shares his special birthday with St. Patrick's Day I thought this would be perfect for his big day.

 And then there is the back... which I am just in love with! His name is Campbell but we call him Cam so I thought this would be perfect!

And well since Cam and Holden are best friends, I thought Holden needed one to match : )


I can't wait to see the boys in the St.Patrick's Day/ Cam's birthday shirt in just a few short weeks!

If you would like something make just for you for St.Patrick's Day, a birthday or any other day and don't see exactly what you want, just send me an e-mail and I will be more than happy to see what I can do! : )  

Have an awesome day!
