I finished my very first quilt this morning. It is so very far from perfect, but AJ loves it, and I'm really happy with it for being my first. The binding was the biggest pain for me. My Aunt Janice was a tremendous help though, and answered countless questions and gave a lot of invaluable advice. I'm blessed to have such a talented quilter in my family!

Yes, I do have a homeless man. Actually I have two...and a half. The half is because it's a guy that I don't know if he is actually homeless or not. He might not be...

The guy who came to church is a man I met at Wal-mart. The long lines at our local Wal-marts are seriously killing me here. Without fail, I wait more than 15 minutes in line at Walmart. Even if I'm in the express lane.

Whenever we go to Omaha, we always get family pictures taken. Sometimes it's just the kids, but often it's the whole gang. This year, it was the whole gang...which meant that we had to figure out a way to coordinate 14 people. Not an easy task for sure.

AJ: Mommy, what IS this?
Mommy: A plum.
AJ: Ooooh!! Yum.

a few minutes pass as he inspects the plum.

AJ: Mommy, what's in the middle of this?
Mommy: A pit.
AJ: Drew, look what we are eating!
Drew: It's called a plit.
AJ: No, it's a plumt.
Drew: No, it's a plunned.
AJ: No, it's a plump.
Drew: Oh...I really like this plump.
AJ: Yeah. Plumps are good.

I made a bag tonight to hold my music for church. I have 4 books for choir, and a binder for the small groups I am in. I wanted a bag that was specifically for music, so I don't have to fish around for it all the time. This is what I came up with...

Haven't posted much sewing stuff lately. Mostly because we were out of town for a few weeks, and I didn't sew much while we were gone (that reminds me that I need to post the dress that I made for Megan...).

Anyways, while I'm pretty sure that no one even reads this blog, I need a project list for myself. So here it is.

Drew started King's Kids tonight, which meant it was time for him to have a Bible. When AJ started last December, I made a cute cover for his Bible. So, of course, I had to do the same for Drew.
