I am back in the blogging world... recovered from the Holidays I think. We had a busy one, with trips to Roseburg and up to Wilsonville also. Lots of fun was had with the boys, I absolutely love their ages right now and want them to stay just as they are (ok maybe Gavin can turn 3, that would be ideal) but Carter, he is soo sweet at 4! When we were in Roseburg over the holiday we went to Diamond Lake and went on the big innertubing hill. Gavin was not into it (you go super fast and snow blows in your face). Carter wasn't into it at first either, but after Grandpa Scott gave him some goggles to wear (think construction worker) he LOVED it. Her is a picture of the guys at the bottom of the hill.
Projects, projects... today is a big day here on Lawrence street, we are finally getting walls and a roof to our shop/sewing room we are building out back. Yes you heard it right, I get a 10X14 sewing room, and I can't wait. Kevin inherited tons of woodworking tools from his Grandpa Bob so we have been planning on building this shop for a while and saying goodbye to our storage unit. Our garage is just not big enough, barely big enough to park in. Anyhow, it is funny to listen to Kevin talking to the construction workers and calling it a shop slash sewing room, they crack up every time. Doesn't sound too manly I guess. :) The picture above is of what it looks like right now a big concrete slab, will keep you posted as we get walls and a roof.
I have been keeping busy with different projects but lately I have been spending most of my crafty time working on this quilt. Here is a picture of some of the panels. I have 5 done out of 9 and then I need to do the sashing and back/binding and all of that. It is going to be bright and colorful, those were my only color requirements, something fun and cheery.
