Part 2 of?

Well, Heather got all excited (as she should) and put the gingham border around 2 squares to see what they would look like. Isn't it cute? I'm so excited for her.

March 2010 - What's New with Us!

Well, Neal and my sister say we need to start putting more posts on here since it's been a few months - it might end up being once a month. (I think the novelty of blogs wore off). So here goes...

What's going on with us? Hmmm -
N is loving preschool, L is enjoying school and reading.
O is walking around furniture and happy as can be.
I've loved staying at home since August - About January it hit me though that I needed an outlet - and in a major way - still trying to figure out what that is. I try to go to the library at least once a week. Heather and I try to get together a couple times a month.
I volunteered once a month to teach an art class in L's class. It was weird to go from teacher to parent where I taught.

I've done quilting in the past and thought about trying that again. I finished a table runner my mom started and now I'm helping my sister do a YW quilt for her daughter (in May).
We finished all the 9-patch squares on Monday. Heather had already done the white, gold and red ones. She finished the light blue and yellow. I did the green, orange, and purple. Since the blocks end up doubling or having a reverse - she is saving those for her younger daughter in a couple of years. It was fun. I have a hand full of unfinished projects and trying to figure out which ones I want to do and when.


Neal is still the financial clerk at church and I'm the Advancement Chair for Cub Scouts - it's been a nice introduction to scouting. I get to go to the Scout Shop and buy all the badges and pins, etc. for the boys.
I know about Girl Scouts but NOTHING about Boy Scouts - I mean Cub Scouts - yes I have been corrected by others. :) I didn't realize they were different groups. The things you learn. I can't wait for L to go into it.
I'm still the webmaster for the school's website - I wish it were busier though. :)
