Blog Giveaway

Audrey over at Pickles & Bacon is having a give away of her new favorite fabric! She hit a soft spot in me not only because she loves the same type of fabric but also because she is studying to become a paramedic. My brother in law, Dave is a paramedic in Idaho and so I have great respect for his profession because I know for a fact that he has helped save many lives.
Head on over to her blog and check it out!!

Pin Wheel Quilt Along Block 1

P.S. I quilt has put up the first block for her Pin Wheel Quilt Along and I was able to make the first block. She had us make two and so I did. I am using just a simple white with leaves on it and Honky Dory from Moda.

New Pet

If you know Kimball; you know that he LOVES his Puppy! He cannot sleep without him and loves to tag him along.
I received a package from Pat yesturday with my goodies that I won from her Valentine's Day Giveaway. Along with the wonderful things was a cute little monkey was in there. Kimball immediately took that and carried it around with him all day!
Then he started this game of hide and seek with it, but it turned into putting Money into jail.
At one time Puppy was in jail too, but mostly it was Monkey
After he tired of the game he continued to carry it around with him. Thanks Pat for the wonderful gifts and the wonderful new toy for my baby! :D Then of course I had to get a picture of Daddy and Kimball. For those who don't know, Kimball is a HUGE Daddy's boy!
My Cute boys!

Friday Night Sew In Results

Yesturday was the Friday Night Sew In and I got a LOT done! I have been working on table decorations for our Relief Society party on March 2nd. So yesturday I took and started making place mats. I decided to do a Maverick star in each corner. They are small, but with 6 placemats to make I ended up making 24 of them. It took a lot longer than I thought. But I have all the tops done, and they are all pinned ready to be quilted together. I did finish one so I could show what they will look like.
Now after these are done I am planning on making napkins and then some pin cushions. Does anyone know some good patterns for a cupcake or cake pin cushions?

A sign of Spring??

It has, well a few days ago began to become warmer and the snow had melted away. To celebrate the warmth we went out side to jump on the trampoline for some time. The boys had such a fun time. Here is a few pictures as well as a video that Brandon insisted that I take of him jumping.
They were playing a game, "get the baby" Kimball loved the game
I then thought that this picture was so funny! Bear in mind that no one was hurt while playing...just a lot of laughing!
My cute Kiddos. I would also like to post a video, but can't seem able to do it. Anyone have advice in that area?
