Oh My! I've been off having fun on vacation to sunny Arizona where we grew up.
Hubby and I celebrated our 29th Anniv...
...and my Dad celebrated his 80th.
Both on Super-Bowl Sunday! Can you say P A R T Y!!!!!
Yes! We got married on my Dad's birthday and never has a year gone by without the ongoing "joke" that my husband gets a "check-in-the-mail" every month for taking me off his hands. ARG!
We traveled together as a family and our little guy so enjoyed his first plane ride from Oregon to Arizona. Lucky me! He INSISTED that he had to sit by his Meme on both flights!
I especially love this photo taken of the two of us on "family picture day".
Oh man we just had soooo much fun! We ate cake. (My niece making sure I got a corner piece.)
We enjoyed seeing old friends and our cups were overflowing with fun!

Our new guy, already eleven weeks old, traveled amazingly. His mother so patient.
Annndddd I absolutely love that my mom got to see and cuddle her new great grandson!

We stayed with one of our family friends, who is also a quilter, and I can't believe I didn't take a picture of the gorgeous king size quilt she just finished! (Darn it!) But is was fun to talk quilting and rummage through her stash and talk about projects as we wished we had more time together.
But as every good vacation entails, we must repack our bags and journey ourselves homeward.
I have two whole days of work this week (Thank goodness as I'm exhausted! LOL!!) and plan to spend a better part of Saturday doing laundry and sewing my February OMG project. Easy sewing which I'm sure will prove to be rejuvenating. Thanks so much for stopping by! I'm looking forward to visiting your blogs and catching up with all of you. Seriously, I even missed my own Tuesday Archives this week! LOL!!! Oh well, life is good!
I specialize in edge to edge pantographs with over 100 designs to choose from.
