Easter 2017

For Easter this year, we went to an egg hunt at a local sister church, then Grace and I went to sunrise service at our church. We ended the day with easter celebration at my parents' house in Orange with my sister and her family.

Millie's Birthday

She's 5! She brought cupcakes to school, we had Casa Ole for dinner and cake at the LWML meeting. What a great day for her!

Millie's first recital

Millie took baby ballet this year. She didn't like it, but we stuck it out. She didn't like the clothes. She didn't like having her hair up. For recital, she didn't like the make up. We did 3 nights in a row - rehearsal then 2 nights of recital. Hell. But we made it. Spent some quality time together. She's a hoot.

Sewing

I love to sew. I love to make things. I have all sorts of projects in all sorts of progresses. I finished a quilt to give to my sister in law, who is going through cancer treatment. I finished baby quilts. I learned how to make zippered pouches. I'm making mason jar placemats and table runners for us. I have several quilts ready to be quilted. I finished a bag. My quilt guild has a book club challenge for 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea. I bought the book, so I can read it, but I've already drawn out a few ideas. The show theme is color your world, so I'm thinking about rainbow hot air balloons. We'll see!
