Family...

Did I tell you that Mum was coming for a visit?  Yup, she was...she did...and she is now gone.  4 days...it was great to have time with her. Didn't get anything done at all.  Not even the sewing that she wanted me to do for her while she was here.  But, that's okay.  I was able to spend a lot of time with her...and to lose money playing cards with her.  {grin}

My sons (& their families) came to visit with Gramma on Saturday.  This is the first time that Kaylynn has met her Great Gramma...she stayed overnight here, so they had a lot of time to get to know each other. 

The 10 of us had a delicious meal of lasagna, fruit salad, garlic/cheese bread, apple pie and chocolate chip cookies.  So, so YUMMY!!!

Here are a few photos...

Beautiful Jasmine and Conlan.

L-R:  Jasmine, Paul, Kaylynn, Rachel, Conlan, Matthew, Devin, Mom, Julie.  







Mum left yesterday.  Julie and I were tired...we sat and read (most of ) the rest of the day.  I did manage to work on the doll quilt late last night, though.  Got it quilted...should be finished either today or tomorrow.

I have today off.  I'm hoping to get caught up on a few things.

That is really great Jacque! Making family memories is so special. But, uh, why wasn't I invited to dinner? :)
