Domestic Sunday

My first Busy Little Quilting Bee fabrics!!! I already know how I want to put my blocks together!!! Today will be buzzing :)
AND...

Fresh produce picked right off the tree!! (Maybe Monday we'll pick blackberries!)

My parents have a fig tree! And a plum tree! The pears came from their neighbor...Pear butter maybe?! I promised the boys a plummy treat if the picked the tree clean! They did it. (Grandpa helped and taught R how to use the lopper. Fun) Plum Kuchen? We ate some of the figs chopped in vanilla yogurt with toasted pecans and mini chocolate chips. I liked it.

A day for sewing and baking! YAY!...The trick will be staying on task...

Things Moms Say

"You should wear pants at dinner"... ... ...
"A shirt, too"

First day of school

And I am BEAT! (I teach pre-k 4&5yrs and Pre-school 3&4 yrs)My class this year is so sweet, and I love them already! (of course! cuties!)
Now, I get to do it again tomorrow! Two first days in a row is exhausting...I am looking forward to Monday when we'll all know each other a bit and have an idea about the routine. Whew!! I'm already planning a long sleep in on Saturday. Off to cook dinner and crash out!

My own boys had good first day too! They were is such good moods when I picked them up!!
Hooray!

*Edit
First day part 2; My little ones are so very cute, too! And busy. Whew! Catch-phrase of the day: "Shouting is not sharing" (sharing is hard. and sitting still and using a chair(only required at snack) and lining up and waitingfor your turn) Whew! (but no fussers!)I think these guys'll catch on quick!

Almost...

The binding on this quilt is less than 5 inches too short! I guess measuring would have been a good idea. Or pinning. Ah, well. I'll finish this silly thing eventually.

From Pretty Little Pin Cushions! Perfect project for sitting on the couch watching Food Network enjoying a rainy, rainy day! (stick a needle in your eye!)

Horrible Sheep

HAHAHAHAHAH!!!(the boys made this for a very dear friend!)

Busy Little Quilting Bee

There have been a few quilting bees going on around crafty blogland and they have all been beautiful! (who doesn't love sharing something that brings them joy) How excited am I to be a part of one myself!! Thanks to Sarah of A Small Fox In A Big World for putting together the Busy Little Quilting Bee. Something I made will be a part of someone else's quilt and I'll have a quilt that will have the work of 16 other people !! Oh, man!! I can hadly wait to see what happens!
