When I go to Washington, my dear daughter (your sister, Amy) usually has a project or two for me to work on. She had told me she wanted some pillow covers made so on my last day there, she set me to work. I got 4 finished, even though I am not pleased with the last one and plan to redo it this next summer. She had some very pretty, fun fabric picked out. Below is the before and after of the gold polka-dot. I like this one. I still have 2 to do but she didn't have enough pillow forms for all of them. Now I'll just sew them when she gives me measurements and send them to her.
The last evening I was in Washington, Holly has a "Sweets & Suites" concert or something like that. It was a fund raiser for her Orchestra trip during spring break to San Fransisco. The students served desserts (twice!!) and then played in small groups and finished with a couple of numbers with the entire orchestra. Holly played a duet with her friend, Kendra which was a "fun" piece.
Miss Holly had to get all dressed up - her hair was all done up in curls and for a whimsical note, she wore zebra-striped shoes.
Can't leave out my bestest buddies out there: Sam is just goofing around and was trying to make faces while I was trying to take his picture but I got a good one. Sam is a WONDERFUL!!!! little boy. He invited me to visit his 3rd grade classroom - what a treat!! Love you Sam
Then there is Lady Katie. What a delight. Wish I could have brought you home with me but daddy said no, you had to stay in Washington.
That's it for today.
Love to all,
Gramma and MOM
