New Computer

We got a new computer this past weekend and I'm still trying to figure out how to use it. I haven't figured out how to hook my camera up to it yet. Our other computer got hit by lightning and got fried!

My thumb is coming along fine! It's still quite black/blue but I'm finally able to use it a little.

We are really looking forward to our vacation to FLA! I know, why would we want to go in July! It's the only time we can go together because the kids have different vacation schedules now that Jared is in college. I'm sure we will do alot of poolside fun for sure!

Hope everyone is having a great day!

Broken Thumb!

Yup..broken thumb! I fell this past Monday and broke my thumb. Don't really know how much u use your thumb until you cant use it. I can't use scissors, rotary cutter, blow dryer, what a pain! I go to the ortho surgeon today to see if I have to wear a cast or not. I hope not as we leave for vacation in three weeks. I want to be able to swim.

Hope everyone is having a good day.

50th Wedding Anniversary

My parents 50th Wedding Anniversary is June 12th..tomorrow! WOW! My Dad said he can't believe how fast it went. Here they are at Jared's graduation last year. I'm using a pic from Jared's computer since my computer died last week during a lightning storm!



They didn't want a big party, so we are having a family portrait done with all 15 of us. Then back to my sisters house for a wonderful dinner and laugther!

We love you, Mom & Dad!

Prom Night

Here's our daugther, Kaylee, between her brother Jared and John. Can't believe she's old enough to got the prom!

It's June? When did that happen?

Boy, time is sure flying by! I can't believe its already June! This weekend is Kay's first prom, so I've been busy getting her dress ready. I need to fix the straps a bit.

Both sisters bday's were this past weekend so I made them tote bags with goodies in them. Did I take a pic..of course not! I hope to finish a tote bag designed by Penny Sturges called Mini Charmer.

Hope everyone is having a great day!

Tote Bag Finished!

John went camping/fishing this weekend with the boys so I decided to get this tote bag done while he was gone! I think I will only be making this one! It called for fusible fleece which I didn't have so I had to use sew in kind which was a pain! I must of ripped this tote bag three times. It's still not perfect! I'm sure I will use it but not right now. I can see the few mistakes I made.



I'm making a few other goodies, but can't show u right now because both sisters birthdays are this weekend and that would spoil the fun! Hope everyone is having a super day!

Flirty Skirty

This is an apron I made this week from The Apron Lady Designs called Flirty Skirty. Love the fabric! My local quilt shop, Cobblestones, had a kit already done with the fabric and pattern.




Now I'm starting on a baby quilt with the pattern Circle Around. It's from the Summer issue of Quilts and More! I have to a some project to work on so I'll stay out of the cookie jar!

Hope everyone is having a great day!
