Did you ever do special art projects during your school holidays? Well, I did this year since I had Katie to help. I've been working on painting a wholecloth quilt, but it's slow going. So here she is helping me move through this wallhanging while watching the Complete Works of William Shakespeare Abridged. Maybe, Maybe Not!

Merry Christmas
What a wonderful Christmas we had together! Everyone was applauding like each gift unwrapping was a great accomplishment. Howard even pulled out his Sunny-D to celebrate with class. We hadn't put any presents under the tree until T-2 days. We served the usual dishes: orange rolls, berry delight, and green bean casserole. I think there was a turkey, too.

Jackson's New Cast

Fall Spiders
It evoked screams of horror. Children went running and calling. I came with the camera and this is the picture we took. We should have added something to the picture for purposes of scale. Perhaps a quarter would have helped. Nevertheless, it was enormous, carrying around its babies on its back. Yikes!

Jackson Broke His Arm Again
Well, Jack was running cross country when he tripped (or was tripped) and he broke his arm again. It looks like the same break as last year.
That doesn't look right.
We'll wait for a week for the swelling to go down.
Ready for a cast?

More Kitty Pics
Marnie had a friend over this weekend and they played with the kitties in a big way. Oh, they are so cute! No! Scratchy!

Dyeing Class
CIQ had the opportunity to host Susan Purney Mark in a dyeing class in
September. We had all day to play in color, and made some amazing fabric.

Katie's New Purse
After seeing Katie's well-loved purse in tatters, I decided to make her a Birdie Sling from Amy Butler's array of purse patterns. Here is Marnie showing it off before I ship it away. School starts on Monday down at BYU, so she has to have it soon!

Back to Philmont
We are excited to be back in New Mexico at Philmont again. During the day, I get to play with women on a High Cope course. Have you ever climbed telephone poles and stood on the top? Walked across a wire 30' high? It's so fun.
Calvin and Frazier in their group.
Always Bring Water.
Ah, the Land of Enchantment.
Western BBQ Night, including dancing.
Marnie hung out with the granddaughter of the Philmont General Manager. She was just hanging out for fun.
Riding horses is one of the best parts of Philmont.
Katie made it to the top of the telephone pole and jumped off!
That's Katie way out there on Lover's Leap.
It's time to go home and rest.
