Bath time with my grandbabies!



Thought I show my grandbabies off a little bit! My girls took their babies to the park after conference and then decided they needed a bath and then I took a goofy picture of my girls as they were watching over their kids in my bathroom. They like my tub for some reason. :)

Here is the apron I was working on. The Relief Society did something similar for our "Christmas in September" meeting.

addition to my quilt one:

Okay, I just click on my two pictures that I posted of my quilting and it makes them go bigger. So if you want to look closer at the pics be warned I am pretty scary looking as I am holding up my quilt! I think I could be a vampire with my red eyes!!

My finished Quilt!



The other day I finally finished a quilt I have been working on for awhile. Its called a "Crazy Eight" quilt design. Its actually not that difficult to do, just finding the time to do it. Which is why my quilting takes so long. I am giving this one to my daughter Dana, because she has decorated her daughters room in the colors of the quilt. And she painted these cool two-tone diamonds on one of the walls and it just happens to match the green diamond fabric in the quilt. If I can get to the pictures, I will also show what I am working on right now. Its a Christmas quilt and I've got some done, 10 panels, and 20 more to go before I can put it together. This quilt has been fun to do and I am already picked out some fabric to do another one. I also just finished decorating an apron for the Halloween holiday. I've got to get a picture of that on next. Okay, here goes...

Lauren and Phill - Ike who?

Well, after talking with Lauren today, it sounds like they are going to try to weather this Hurricane named Ike. I hope Ike is just a bit of rain and not much else. If you go to her blog, she tells what their plans are. Its weird not being there to help her and I know her and Phill will be fine, its just been my role in life to protect her and life goes on, kids grow up and find great husbands, and I just need to relax! I know this and I can do it. Heck, its not like I don't have enough to think about with the rest of my kids! Today, Taylor's High school and Jessie's Jr. High were in lockdown for a couple of hours because of a home invasion close by. Geeze, louise, what next?!!

"Going to the Temple and we're gonna get married!"

Hi. Today we were invited to attend my niece's Temple Sealing. Its always a great thing to do and experience with your family. I am so happy for my niece Crystal and her husband, Rob to be married for time and all eternity. Our daughters who are married were also able to attend as well as her sister, Ambur and Josh, her husband. I love going to weddings, especially when I am related to them. I hope they will continue to attend the Temple regularly and enjoy the blessings that it will bring them. We love you Crystal and Rob and, again, thanks for letting us share in your happiness. :)
