Who Would Have Known......

The good life!!  First of all...Sew EZ Designs is having a close-out sale...again..!!!  Her 40wt and 50 wt Aurifil thread is $7 a spool plus 10% off and $6 shipping for a UPS envelope holding 30 spools...Going together with friends to fill it up makes the best sense.  Check it out...My heart!!  
Then...my wonderful pool peeps gave me an awesome gift cert...They said to buy a little something for myself...hmmm...Just happened to be at IKEA and found this wonderful batik..a package for $19.  It is FIVE yards worth...sigh...it made my day!  Blood pressure still rises looking at its beauty.

Visitors here...who would have known...Auntie Geraldine from Dublin is a whiz with kids...Sigh!!!! A HUGE help.  She did the reading, the baths, the walks to the river, the homework...I am so very grateful.
 Uncle Declan came with her...ha!  Here the brothers...Mr. O'Quilts and himself supervise Brian organizing and cleaning our garage...lucky Brian!!
A lovely sunny day with Carolina blue...perfect for a picnic.

 And so it goes...family and friends continue to gather round helping in every single way.!!!  So blessed here.

That ikea fabric is really gorgeous!!! It's great to see the irish are still there helping you all smile. I love the photo of Auntie Geraldine reading stories to the children. They look captivated.

Back home and recovered from jet-lag following 13.5 hours of uninterrupted sleep!! Missing the kids but the 14 under-3s in Spot yesterday (straight from airport!) took my mind off it!! Loved our visit and look forward to seeing y'all again in June xxx
