I had so much fun making Lauren's birthday quilt that I just had to make another one.

This time for a special friend who was retiring.

We filled it full of notes from friends.

Mother's Day

Without a mother, Mother's Day just does not seem as exciting.

It is a whole lot more fun and gratifying to

~create a gift you know she will love no matter what;

~prepare a nice dinner for your very favorite mother;

~ fill a wheelbarrow planter with her favorite flowers and see her face light up;

~hug that person who has known you and loved you every single second of your life;

~thank her for everything she has taught you and done for you;

~say, "I love you, Mom!

Happy Mother's Day!

Mother's Day celebrations continue...

Today I came home and found this on my porch...

Beautiful roses from Nathan, Katie and Josie. Thank you!

and this in my mailbox.....

a handmade card from Sister Johnson. She says she used post it notes, isn't she resourceful and clever?

Happy Mother's Day to all of you mothers out there!

Temptations

Saturday night Katie and Megan, courtesy of Katie, took me to the Utah Symphony for a Mother's Day celebration. Aren't they thoughtful? It was a lot of fun, especially being with Katie and Megan. The older I get the more I realize the most fun I have is when I am with my children. The first half of the concert was very enjoyable. The new pops conductor is very amusing to watch. Megan says she has decided that would be a great way to make a living, dancing as you conducted a symphony. The second half of the concert featured the Temptations. Yes, those elderly men with shiny green tuxedo jackets-- oooo oooo---. A most enjoyable evening! Thank you Katie and Megan!
