Church Dinner and Country Fair

Our church recently sponsored a dinner and country fair. I displayed some of the afghans I have on hand. People said I had WAY too much free time! I had the woman in charge put a "Please Touch!" card on in contrast to others who asked for "Don't Touch" cards!

This "hamburger and fries" cake took 1st place for cake decorating--for obvious reasons! Awesome!



This Easter "Cookie Basket" cake took 2nd!


I also entered a cake into the dessert contest. Yummm. It is Devil's Food with a filling of cream cheese, cool whip, and crushed Oreo's. I got second place overall! Larry declared it his favorite! Smart man!

We have enjoyed the wettest winter in years! Rumor has it we got over 12 inches since February! Here is photo of a beautiful rainbow--in between rainstorms....

It is raining again right now. :-) In another life, I am sure I was a duck!

Going to San Diego

I went down to San Diego last Tuesday to help Morgan out and take her to her first post-op physical therapy appointment! It was a trial watching her slowly navigate the stairs from the second floor apartment down to the parking lot!

Her therapist was afraid she had wrecked the same knee he had worked with her the first time, but no. It was the other knee. She had the same surgery, torn ACL and meniscus fixed on the second knee.

I went to the day care and picked up the kids after they got out of school and we had some quality time at McD's, eating ice cream sundaes and watching them play in the playland. Then I took them back, took Morgan home, vacuumed, set her up with water, snacks and her laptop. Headed home.

Twin babies with blankies

These are my friend Yessika's two youngest twins. I say youngest because this is her second set--in three years! The babies are clutching baby quilts I made for them..so cute!
