My NEW quilting project
I have a lot of scraps , and I'm one of those people that can't get rid of anything under a 1 1/2 inch. I had so much I told myself I would not buy any more fabric. Which isn't that hard since the closest place is 30 minutes away.

Where have I been?
Summer is here and we are at our camper at the Lake of the Ozarks on weekends. It is our mini vacation. Even then the camper has out grown us(it has 2 bunk beds). The girls relay don't come with us anymore. Heather maybe once last year, Jennifer tries to bring a friend down and enjoy biking, swimming, sitting next to a camp fire, and sometimes get a ride in our friends boat for a swim. But she would rather be with her friends.
Spice loves the lake. She waits near the truck until Rob puts her in. Even though we never pulled it any where, we're looking for a another one. For Rob and I to travel with.

Well this year we had some visitors in our rafters, actually our blinds. A bird nest of 3 Cardinals. Watching mom and dad go back and forth , feeding them. We tried not to bother them. Two weeks we came back, and they were gone. Looking into the trees we could see a few Cardinals flying in and out of the trees.
Love going to our home away from home, we have our own little zoo. Snakes, turtles blue herons, deers, chickens, frogs, of course different fish and plenty of dogs enjoying the lake like we do. I am still qulting but not as much. That vegtable garden keeps me busy! Hope you are all enjoying the summer.
So how is your summer going?

A little about me!
A little about me ...
Borrowed from Jody, let me know if you do it too!
I am… trying to find myself at the age of 50
I want… my sons and daughters to always want to visit
I have… a granddaughter, grandson and another on the way
I wish… a long and happy life with my husband
I know… I need to exercise more
I hate… cleaning my house
I fear… being without my husband
I hear… ringing in my ears, AC and the TV
I crave… chips (I really do try and stay away from them)
I search… for the perfect place to retire
I always… say I love you to my family everyday and more then once
I usually… make a salad with dinner
I am not… a social butterfly
I miss… my sons and gran kids
I love… my life(thank you Rob)
I never… use the word hate, it's a very strong word
I rarely… eat beef, a bite maybe once a year
I cry… during sad movies, allot
I lose… my mind when the girls want and beg for something they really want and I say "NO!"
I should… keep up with house cleaning and laundry, I should but I probably won't
I worry… about my kids and their happiness and well-being
I dream… of traveling in our camper around the states. And coming back to our little retirement home

Senior '09
They all graduated last year. Between me and the girl in pink holding her baby is Marisia (Heather's Surprise)
Here she comes with her partner(and friend) Marcus.
Heather was towards the end because her partner was very tall! She does look good in orange.
Reginia and her baby Aubrey.Heather, Marisia and Melanie.
Heather was very surprised to see Marrisia (from El Paso). She thought she saw her in the crowd, and text Marisia, and asked her if she was at her graduation. Heather kept looking back thinking she was going crazy. Marisia kept hiding.
Yes, we made Heather cry. LOL
