Not a whole lot going on…….;o(

WOW! There is just not much going on around here but SNOW…………. So I thought I would share something that is keeping me warm this winter. About 2 years ago my wonderful sister in law Cherish helped me make this beautiful quilt top and I was going to hand quilt it...... ya riiiiight…….lol Jim gave me one of them new quilting stands that roll and I still don’t know how to use it! I feel so bad. So this last fall I asked Cherish how much she would charge me to finish my quilt.  She offered to do it for free, but of course I didn't let that happen! It would have cost me a fortune if I were to get it done professionally! She has a friend that has a quilting sewing machine and quilted it the whole thing together.  It turned out so wonderful. So I just wanted to say I love you Cherish!!  Thank you so much!!!  I love it!

Fun Weekend with Nichoas & Delaney

This last weekend I had Nicholas and Delaney come up and stay with me. It all started on Friday. Jessica and Travis dropped them off at my mom’s at noon because they were leaving to spend the weekend with Katie & Shane. So Grandma Winnie said they could come entertain her. When they found out they were going to Grandma Winnie’s for an hour they were very excited to get to see and talk to her.
When we got back into Heber I took them to the little King’s store so they could pick out something to play with while they were up at the house. Nicholas picked a toy gun and Laney picked a Brat doll. We then went home and just hung out for the rest of the night we had pizza and popcorn (it had to be Grandma Nettie’s popcorn with lots of real better and no salt)
The next day we had a nice big breakfast and got ready for the day, Grandpa and Nicholas
went to the PD to work out while me and Laney stayed home and found some really cool things like a Gum Drop Doll that has a porcelain head and hands. She was in heaven she would not put it down. She also found all the hats she could find in the house and tried them all on. It was pretty funny. We also made some Valentines to give to their mom we all had a great time. Jim and I love having them come up and spend time with us.
