2009 is rolling right along

Aren't they cute? Scout stays worn out most of the time trying to keep up with his new little buddy. It is such fun to watch them play but at the rate that Rudy is growing it won't be long before the tables are turned and Scout is the "underdog".

I've been doing a lot of "puppy-sitting" now that school is back in session for our sweet daughter(Rudy's mom). Oh my, he's so constant. The weather doesn't help either. We have had so much snow this year and they are forecasting blizzard conditions for tonight and tomorrow. It's not fun taking a puppy out for potty time in snow that is almost belly high on him. It doesn't seem to bother him but "grandma" doesn't care for it.

I have been doing a bit of sewing. I took pictures but the computer won't seem to recognize the USB port so that I can get them uploaded. I am working on a new project I bought fabric for in Houston last month and also trying to finish up my 2008 Thimbleberries quilt. I have jumped into the middle of several BOM projects but will wait to post those another day. In the meantime, we are rearranging our hobby rooms(again). My hubby's art(check it out here and here) and hunting supplies are going back upstairs to the spare bedroom and my quilting is spreading out into the formal living and dining rooms now. As soon as it's in some kind of order I'll post pics of it also.

There hasn't been much else going on around here. Both of our boys are back to their respective apartments at school. Spring semesters are starting next week for them. As I said earlier, our sweet girl is already on the downhill slope of her senior year. I know these months are going to race by so quickly.

Thanks for stopping by. Hope to have the camera up and going again soon.
Happy Quilting!!

Prom 2008

This is our baby. She went to her Jr. Prom last night. I can't believe that she is only days away from being 17 years old. She is a great girl and we are so very proud of her.













Her "date" is a good friend from church. The chaperone at their feet is her dog, Scout. He just ambled over and inserted himself between them for the picture. It was really funny. He is very protective of her. I thought we weren't going to get any pictures without him.



I will introduce our boys another day. They are both away at colleges in other states. We are so very proud of how they have grown up. I remember thinking back when they we all under the age of 5 that I would not live through some of those days. Now, I find myself wishing for those "toddler" days again. The years pass far too quickly.

Thanks for stopping by. Happy Quilting!
