The Aquarium

I took Rebecca and Benjamin to the Aquarium today. They love to run around and look at all the different fishes, play on the boat and try to touch the sting ray's.
Yes, this is my walker Benjamin. He can now turn around and take off in another direction. FUN!!!

This is the type of poses I get from Rebecca now. Such a cutie. I see a handsome guy in this mirror.

I tried to take a picture of Rebecca looking at the jelly fish as they turned pink.

Trying to touch the sting rays.

Reading time (Benjamin got up and got his milk.)

Rebecca and Benjamin loved to play around the coral reef and aquariums. I had to carry Benjamin away from running in and out of the reefs. He could have stayed there all day. They have a new South American hall.

We had a blast. Rebecca and Benjamin loved to look at the different fishes and I loved how they ran around and got tired.

Yellow Brick Road

This is the first quilt I finished. The pattern in yellow brick road and I made it for my niece Abby (Heidi's daughter). Chad helped me tie the quilt with embroidery thread. I think it turned out really cute. I hope she enjoys it for a long time.

I also made this rag quilt for Abby. Heidi bought the fabric and I put it all together.

Chad makes a good model doesn't he.

First Quilt

This is the first quilt I pieced together but not the first quilt I ever finished. I pieced it together a few years ago and had it quilted. I just finally did the binding on the quilt to have it compltetly down. Why took so long? Binding actually scares me. I think mostly because half of the binding process is hand sewing and I am not a strong hand sewer. So here is the final product.I have the quilt now on display in my living room on my new quilt rack that I got at a yard sale for $2. Yes $2 what a steal.

Swimming

This was Rebecca's and Benjamins first swimming time for this summer (this actually happened a few weeks ago but as always I am behind.) Rebecca and Benjamin had so much fun. Yes, Benjamin is very white.

Last Day of Preschool

Today was Rebecca's last day of Preschool. I am amazed at how much she has learned since starting last September. The other day I was unloading her back pack and I found a worksheet she had done at school and she had written her name at the top. Now one of the c's was an e but I knew what she meant. I had to take some pictures on her last day and compare it to her first day. Next September will come around quick and she will start another year of preschool but we will have fun playing and reviewing during the summer.

Love that Chair

Benjamin loves his chair. Sometimes I find him in his chair just sitting and smiling. Sometimes I find him in his sisters chair and he is smiling even bigger. Yes he doesn't have any pants on but it was the end of the day.Find a book to read.
