A Wonderful Weekend

Lynne texted Saturday morning 

to let me know she had picked up 

our collaborative quilt 

from her long arm quilter in NH.

She also sent me this photo later in the weekend

to let me know that the quilt had been

thoroughly kitty-tested and approved

by her resident QA Manager, Millie.

GLORIOUS should arrive at my house mid-week.

I can't wait to see it in person!

This past weekend was a two-night sleepover 

for Little Man (now 21 mos.) and his dog.

He and Dee-dah had to fix the stroller,

complete with a trip to Home Depot for repair parts,

after the dog's leash got wrapped around the axels.

Later on Saturday, we made a trip to Ikea

to pick up two of their white 2-step stools

after Dee-Dah saw an Ikea Hack online

for turning the short stool into a toddler learning tower.

While Dee-Dah loaded the box into our cart,

Little Man just HAD to inspect

the inside of an aisle-closed cone.

(with the help of his new fuzzy puppet

Mr. Whoo-Whoo)

On Sunday, construction began in earnest.

By the end of the day,

they had built a tower for our house

and a second tower for Little Man's house.

They also shared smiles and giggles

and made some good memories.

Needless to say,

nothing happened in the quilt studio.

And I don't mind one little bit.
