A FAMILY THAT PLAYS TOGETHER.....STAYS TOGETHER!!!!!

I'VE heard this saying but never thought it would become the family THEME...... The "PLAY" part definitely takes precedence. We love ALLEN!!!!!

A baby rag quilt...



I bought some really cute quilting fleece fat quarters the other day and wanted to use it. I haven't made a rag quilt in a while so.......

Just a note, "Making a rag quilt is really easy if you've done it before and pretty easy if you haven't", but the part that's hard for me is piecing.  Usually I get a paper and make a pattern, but today I decided to cut all the pieces and lay them quickly out on the counter.  Well two hours later the pieces are still NOT were I want them.  Go figure....quick and easy.....what is that???

I Want to ESCAPE TO.....

           I took this picture on the north shore of Maui (Paia)

Hawaii !!!!!  Last year at the begining of March we went to to Maui and loved every bit of it.  It was warm, tropical and we weren't ready to leave.  As I look outside and see the snow falling right now.....I want to go back so bad.  Maybe next year after the baby is born!!!

BEING PREGNANT....

For me, BEING PREGNANT ISN'T ALL IT'S CRACKED UP TO BE, AT LEAST AT THIS POINT IN TIME!!! I feel like I've had the wind knocked out of me and I can't catch it again. I guess that's normal for the first trimester......AND THEN SOME more FOR ME!!!! I am a person that goes and goes and goes, and that hasn't been the case and is drivin me a bit crazy.

THIS LITTLE LADY IN MY BELLY IS ALWAYS MOVING. She must get that from her mama!!! Ha Ha. I know, "it'll be all worth it in the end!!!!", Since it's winter and cold.......I awaite warmer days...right!!!
