A Quilt Finish

A friend of mine, who's oldest son is also my student, is having a baby girl!  I always enough a good start quilt.  I made it a little big and I really like it how it turned out.  I added stars into my loopy quilting for some added stariness. I wanted it to be bright and cheerful, and I think I succeeded. 

Learning to Sew

 Little Man learned how sew this weekend.  He's working on making Christmas stockings for foster children. 

He also had some visitors while he was sewing.  

More Celebrations

Homecoming festivities continued.  Little Man got ready with a group of his guy friends from church.  They all got together for dinner at Bishop Jones' home, and then he went to the Blue Valley homecoming. He's looking way too grownup and handsome for me to handle.  I'm grateful he has such good friends.

Meanwhile, Little Lady and I were at Becca and Brenden's wedding reception helping out.  It turned out lovely and the weather held out until we had everything cleaned up.

Homecoming Festivities

This is the first year Little Man has fully participated in Homecoming.  He helped with the Cross Country float and rode it on the parade.  Friday night he sang the national anthem at the Homecoming game with all the BVN choirs, including feeder schools, so Little Lady and BB also got to sing.  Little Man surprised me and stayed for the football game. 

Next!

 'Tis the month of baby quilts.  Something must be in the water.  I finished up this star quilt top and now the cats think it belongs to them. 

Baby Boy Scrappy Quilt

 My cousin had a baby boy this past week, so I'm mailing off this quilt to her.  He's her first.

Little Guy has his own way of modeling quilts. 

Singing the Day Away

 Little Man had the Bass Clef Choral Festival all day today.  He had a great time.  I think he was mostly excited it got him out of AP Physics.  BB is excited he gets to do it with him next year.

We Have Lift-Off

Over the weekend BB got to go to Shawnee Park with his friend August.  They have a permit to launch rockets at the park, and the boys had so much fun.
