We took over 100 photos, so I just had to share some more!Just to eliminate confusion, the boy on the raft is Christian's friend, and not one of ours.
Quilting Marathon
On Friday, Sabra and I participated in what can only be described as a quilting marathon. We quilted with our friends, the Pattons and Shamblins, for 8 1/2 hours. By the time we finished, Sabra had completed the first 2 rows of her quilt. I pinned and ironed, but...
Ribbet! Ribbet!
This is one of our new pet frogs. We ended up with four of them after the heavy rains last weekend. You can tell how tiny they are - about the size of your thumbnail. Hayden has them in his room in an aquarium with a lid. They may be small, but these things can really...
Vocabulary Building 101
I was horrified in my late 20's when I heard a commercial for some sort of vocabulary building product. It said that we don't acquire new vocabulary after the age of 25, and I had already passed that mark. I would like to think of myself as a lifetime learner, so I do...
Sew Memorable
Today has been a very full and memorable day, not the least of which being our first trip to Sew Memorable in Dawsonville. Sabra and I went on a very impromptu trip with our quilting bee friends. We met for a 9:30 Chick-fil-a breakfast, and then loaded up with our...

Birthday Cake!
Tonight, Lily Rose was introduced to the magical world of chocolate. She had lots of help blowing out her candle! You can see a touch of ice cream on her mouth. She was not particularly excited about it, I think because of the temperature. Hmmm... good stuff! Content...
Birthdays
This lovely birthday tiara was passed along to me yesterday and I was told that Miss Fran wants to see a picture of Lily Rose wearing it. It is really difficult to get pictures of her with her eyes open and/or her tongue in her mouth, so one out of two isn't bad. I...
Happy Birthday, Bunny!
Lily Rose is 1 year old today, and what an interesting year it has been! Even after having 7 other kids, Lily introduced some new firsts: first baby with colic (I honestly didn't think colic was a real thing - WRONG!), and first baby to need physical therapy (for...
