A Happy Day

A few UFO blocks now primed for next year's patriotic hangings..So much fun.

My eldest grandson is  21  xo

Out on the west coast, Bok Bok comes inside to lay her eggs and then watches TV for a bit with 6 year old...My youngest grandchild...xo

A scrap beginning, for Ronald McDonald House.  They are asking for yarn made or quilt made 20 inches by 20 inches car seat lovies for the premature infants ride home from the hospital  This is my first try..

Our family's favorite..Stitch....the sewing machine cat ....Miss him so much as  he now lives in Portland.

Potholder...so not worth the effort ...Spent forever finding the perfect middle circle...Linda found it...Then,  I made a  mess attaching it...Joyce took out the threads...Finally...done...sigh...It is only a potholder!!!!

I was just gifted some vintage blocks....all hand pieced...Here, my friends helped me lay them out  in the art room here.

Sew it goes...fabric fun, lunch fun, fresh watermelon and peach fun...fresh peanut butter and cucumber sandwich..fun...Life is good....

A Lovely April

 

In Portland...the family, backyard hen house..

For Easter, my girl delivered eggs from her own hens, the hens' names written right on them...I mean, credit as due!!!

In Ireland....our girl, the farm hand...with an attitude...and baby lamb!

 Baby Bok Bok from a few years back.

Big Bok Bok!!!!

Here, in Matthews, our Ann painted her shoes with acrylics....She is so new to painting...wow...

Today's visit from my grands...I love them so!!

They fixed things for me, gave me hugs and ate dinner...They are so wonderful.

Now I do not know who the old lady is???  Looks a lot like my own grandmother at this age..

Where does time go???

My favorite picture of my DIL and me...taken 4 years ago.

Tonight MC showed me her Amaryllis from last year...It grew so much that it broke the bowl it was in.  I have never seen anything like it..

Beautiful days in Charlotte now...walking by the lake, reading a book and enjoying the wild life.

I do bring my arthritis with me... we are quite used to each other  by now.

Tuesday will be 11 years since my husband died.. Unbelievable...I miss him so..He was great on giving to others...So I guess I will donate to the Food bank in his name.

Life is good.
