Saturday afternoon...


What a week it was...lots going on at the job and else where keeping me hopping. I had the pleasure of leaving work early on Thursday to pick up Alice, my granddaughter from daycare and spend some quality bonding time. She is such a joyful child with the best belly laugh I have ever heard. Here is a great shot of her and her daddy having a good time. Friday I worked a bit for a deadline project then left early as we had a wedding to go enjoy. What a fabulous time everyone had at this wedding. The bride and groom really did a wonderful job planning it and including everyone in many different and fun ways. We partied until close to midnight and went roller skating with most of them this morning to continue the fun time. I need to do a lot more roller skating to get my "skating legs" back! Several of us local ladies have a plan to go skating on a monthly basis to keep this fun going. Meanwhile I have finished the booty swap top and hope to have it quilted by the end of this weekend. I have a block to make as well as part of my local guild's outgoing president thank you from the members. I have pulled lots of orange fabrics as that is her favorite color. I have not done much hand quilting this week-I hope with the Olympics going on to do more as I spend some time watching those events that are on when I am home. I am missing out on the AQS quilt show in Seattle that started yesterday-I had so looked forward to enjoying it too.
oh..waiting for our Alice to be dropped off for a sleepover...so it's an Alice weekend -the big reason for missing the quilt show.
