More Snow

Man, will it ever turn into spring? More snow today and another snow day from school! Everyone is hunkered down for the day. I woke up early when the school system called at 6:15am! So I changed the bedding on the guest room bed so I could show off my finished Exclamation Point quilt. I got the pattern from a Better Homes and Gardens quilt mag a couple of years ago. Finally finished it up and have it on a bed! Looks great, if I do say so myself.

I have been working on a quilt for the shop that I will be teaching. Not going so well....I keep avoiding working on it because it brings me no joy. I gotta snap out of it!!

Daughter dear has to have ear tubes inserted before she flies to France. She leaves for France on the 11th of March and her tube surgery is scheduled for March 5. A few years back she had a ruptured ear drum from a plane landing and we certainly don't want to repeat THAT incident!!

Traveled to Pella Iowa this last weekend to hear daughter's Jazz Ensemble play in a competition at Central College. They were fabulous and took first in just about all catagories! We also met my brother and sister-in-law there. They enjoyed the performance as well.

Of course we couldn't leave Pella without getting some Dutch Letters...YUM! What a charming town. We ate in a Greek resaurant (go figure..)that was delicious. The name was Kaldera (I think).

Ok everyone...THINK SPRING!!!
