this and that

some of the rasberries Michael and I picked at Bob & Hazel Doerrs a little while back.  I wish so badly I had rasberries like they do.  They have always been my absolute favorite fruit.  I planned to go in the morning before Michael had to go to work at 12 that day, so we pulled in about 8:30 I think, got Janelle all situated in the backpack carrier we borrowed from Kasi, picked for like crazy for 15 mins and then the weather turned bad and Michael and I took turns sitting with the girls in the van while the other picked.  We ended up with this bowl filled to the top which was enough for a few pint sized bags to freeze and of course to just snack on.  Kandace was in rasberry heaven.
Today is dad & Brenda's birthday but we celebrated last night at Glenda's with soup and some other yummy potluck dishes.  Happy birthday to two wonderful people!  Janelle got her very own icecream cone and was one happy girl.  She ate almost the entire thing.



My favorite Ben showing his byu pride

This is the cutest little boy I know and I love him like crazy. He has been so good to his tired mama lately by being cooperative in the mornings, using good manners and helping me with Janelle. This pic was a couple Halloweens ago. He was so proud when this costume finally arrived in the mail that year. He didn't even know wqho the UPS man was. He says he wants to be superman this year. Michael and I are finally going to the temple this Sat and I'm hoping to find one then.This is the cutest little boy I know and I love him like crazy.

Today I was enjoying a rare quiet moment of peace without Janelle when what to my utter dismay she was actually in the kitchen spreading yogurt all over the floor and herself. Bless her little heart.

 

Here is my blanket model.  This one is for Elizabeth.  When she was here last summer we went to Cody together to pick out some fabric for her birthday ragquilt.  She picked a puppy theme.  It turned out cute but not as big as I thought.  I used a 4" die cut which was easier because I didn't have to worry about straight lines but just as much work in the long run arranging that many more squares and such.  Just maybe I'll make something else one day.

I took this one with my phone ...SO STINKIN CUTE this one.  This was on one of those last minute trips to the park when it was still semi nice outside...but I'm just realizing Janelle is still in her PJS??  Hmm...

At least Janelle looks super cute with that yogurt all over her. lol I love the colors in that rag quilt. Can't wait to see Stetson as Superman this year.
