Mission interview with Stake President Sinclair

We met with President Sinclair for our mission interview. He recommended we red0 our dentist exam form before he submits everything to Salt Lake. Not a problem! We'll do it right away to keep the ball moving along. He promised that we would run into problems beginning the very second he clicks the button to send our application to church headquarters because that is how Satan works, so we need to be prepared for that. Ugh. He also said he would click that button and send our application along immediately after we get the dentist form to him. hmmm...must be something about that button...

Rainy "book reading" day today

Heavy clouds and rain all day long. Only 47 degrees too. Great day to read a book (from cover to cover) or quilt. So I did the next best thing...I helped a friend make a quilt. Helen Ace is making her first quilt for her 8 month old baby Emma. We got the top nearly assembled. Will finish it tomorrow-whether it rains or not! Tom spent the day at the Louisville Temple. He helped clean the inside then did an endowment session. His day was more spiritual and mine was more fun.

Finished babydoll quilt for Jane Hatch's 6th birthday!

Amanda Hatch made a twin size quilt like this for Jane's 6th birthday. I made a mini version for Janes babydolls or her new build-a-bear she got for her birthday. Turned out cute I think.
Happy birthday Jane!
Here is a photo of the quilt Amanda did for Jane. Isn't it just fun!

A Day with Derek, Jessica, and Preston

Jessica, Derek, and Preston (3 months old now) went to Red Robin and had their monster hamburgers - yummmm. Well...Preston didn't actually get any.

Preston was so cute. Smiling and laughing alot.

Hair is getting more red too.

Only 3 months and he's a chick magnet already.

He has the bib to prove it!

Waiting for the burgers...

Preston was good all day...

of course...Grandpa Tom held him almost the whole day!

"We can't believe we ate that whole thing"

Derek and Jessica bought our rent house at 605 W. Maryland on land contract today. We went together and got it recorded, tax exemptions filed, insurance in place, all the utilities scheduled to be turned on, and even got some groceries to stock the pantry. They move in next week. Derek and Jessica worked real hard to be able to purchase this house and we are VERY proud of them! Congratulations you guys!!

(Don't forget what I said about "ya 'all be nice to the neighbors.")
