I have finally had a few minutes to edit some of the photos that I took on Friday night - aaahhh two weeks ago July 9....it has been a long couple of weeks. Recovery from Quilt Show, traveling to Mom's Hall of Fame and now birthday's. Vi had her third birthday yesterday. She was awfully cute about it....they did a big party for her at daycare and then we did a picnic in the back yard for dinner...with presents of course! I am hoping that three is a little easier than two. New trials and tribulations I am sure but my hope is that she will get better at explaining herself and understanding us. It is always an adventure with kids....right?!?!
Now back to Friday Night....our annual Picnic in the Park. With 800 picnickers (is that even a word) and lots of others around the park to see our employee challenge quilts and the retrospective that was MC'd by our good friend Alex Anderson.
I can't seem to do a blog without some cute photos of the fam.....
She was throwing fabric into the air and catching it....new way to play with fabric. It looked like fun!
Vivi taking a rest on Grandma Jo.....we are so very thankful for Grandma Jo (Ross' mom) during this week she is a life saver....maybe a mommy sanity saver!
Ross knew when he married me that he would be a part of Quilt Show - a big part. He helps out so much and is always happy to do it. I am very lucky!!!
Mom, Liv and Frank...he is one of our awesome locals. I love that the locals come and enjoy the events and don't always run and hide for the week.....
The one and only Bari J. I so enjoyed getting to know Bari and I am looking forward to working with her again....
A couple of our teachers knitting....love the connection of knitting and quilting.
Part of the crowd!
Ricky Timms and Alex Anderson....and now for some quilts....
One of Alex's quilts out of my fabric....
LOVE this one of Smith Rock state park....in our back yard!
Well, that is all I have for now....I hope to get the Quilt Show day photos done tomorrow...at least some of them.
