Look What Ventured into Our Yard


We had a racoon visit us today. It has been in the 40s the last few days with lots of fog so the photos are a little hard to see. He even climbed a tree.

The End of 2010

I hope everyone had a great Christmas. We had the stomach flu the weekend before. My sister and her family made it back from DC for Christmas. We had not seen them in 1.5 years and I got to meet my 6 month old niece. SO CUTE! Unforunately they got the stomach flu Xmas day so we had to stay away from them for a while. The boys had a wonderful time with their cousins and loved all their presents. Except for my youngest, we got him a snow board and he said his cousin could have it :)
I have some quilt photos to share when I get some time to put them on my computer. I finished a 12 Days of Christmas quilt - I love it so much I bought more fabric to make stockings and a tree skirt to match.
I started a double hourglass quilt using Fresh Squeezed by Sandy Gervais. I just have to sew the rows together. Today I started a small table mat of stars. It is a mini pattern using 1.25 inch squares. My machine is not cooperating with such small pieces of fabric so it is slow going.
Had a wonderful night out with my husband tonight, my work hosted a dinner for my department. The kids are sleeping at Grandma and Grandpas for the night. I am hoping to do a little sale shopping tomorrow then we will do movie night with the kids for New Year's Eve.
Hope everyone is doing well. Will do a post of photos soon. Have a great last day of the year. Happy New Year's!!
