Great Weekend

Monday morning and I feel refreshed and ready for the workweek.  Went to The Needle Niche and picked up January BOM, got the test block and the official BOM completed, felt great.  Continued on with Bonnie Hunter's 2015 Quilt Mystery, Alletaire.  Very productive.  Love watching Acorn TV in the quilt room.  Re-watching Midsomer Murders, love that show.
From the remaining grey fabric I believe the mystery is almost to a close, perhaps a few more parts are needed. 
Breanna went to Tiffany's baby, Tori Grace Abrams, shower yesterday in Brenham.  We did not go due to the event being on a Sunday.  Bre sent a picture of she and Tiffany together, lovely.

Keurig

Life is so much sweeter having one of these machines.  Simply make a single cup and go.  Love it.  Best gift received in years.  Thanks Chelsey and Jennifer.

January break

This weekend I got to enjoy a break away from work for three whole days.  Saturday we enjoyed a family day celebrating the 4th Grandboys second birthday.  Henry is beginning to be a laughter filled enjoyment.  He use to be very contemplative, now he is smiling and laughing continually.  We are receiving a lot of photo's with huge grins.  Blessing abound.
Yesterday, Monday, MLK day - holiday from Working - I'll take it free day - while his Momma took Cheyenne to get pictures I got to visit Everett for a few hours.  We danced - Cheeto's dance and the crazy monkey dance and we danced together in the kitchen too.  Weather was enjoyable and outside we went, visited crabs and octupus' and wolves in the travel trailer.  Watched some cartoons and sewed together too.  Momma came home with some gorgeous pictures.
Over the weekend, I continued working on the Bonnie Hunter 2015 Mystery Quilt and I slept a lot!  Now it's back to reality and work work work.

January 2016

January 10 was Henry Alan's second birthday.  I so adore his personality, filled with individuality and he's pretty decisive.  This coming weekend will be his party date.  Cannot wait to get hugs and see the boys running around.

Rick and I got all families trampoline's for Christmas gifts.  Breanna and Thomas, Chelsey and Kenneth have theirs up.

Started a new QOM from The Needle Niche.  Unsure of myself so I will be making two of the same quilt blocks, one from the fabric they provide and another from Reproduction fabric that I already have.  I'll do the reproduction fabric first to ensure that the blocks are learned before making the 1930's addition.  I am thinking I'll be able to use these 12 blocks with the other 1930's blocks I have to make an even bigger quilt.  Of course that will make mine not the QOM layout but, it is my quilt so I should be able to use it however I want to without feeling guilty, right - Yes, I should.

Colt and Jennifer have moved into their new home.  It appears that Colt is living the dream.
