One week till the big test...

Micah is craming like a mad man. Next Saturday is the first of four big tests and we are feeling the pressure now more than ever... poor Mic does nothing but work and study. We realized yesterday that it had been almost 2 weeks since we had seen each other in the light of day... so micah took and hour on yesterday and we drove to the top of skinners butte. We are so excited to have this test (the hardest of all 4) out of the way.

On a much better note thanks everyone for all the imput on my quilt... I think it turned out great.
`
I couldn't find a solid back that matched right, so I went with the darker print.

My next quilt is going to be larger and hopefully the squares will match up better.

I have been doing my best to cook and bake more and this week I made Carmels mmm This jar was full at the beginning of the week!



Mason is growing and advancing everyday... I dream of the days when he would lay quietly on a blanket.


You can see he is always on the move!

He didn't like the toy selection I got out for him, don't worry he can get his own!

I promise we have been doing our best to discourage him from walking, he is an unstoppable force of nature!

Its a good thing he is so cute!

Love it! I usually only see him when he's sleeping or eating :-) and as cute as that is...I love seeing these "big boy" pics! I'm so proud of him.
Your jars looked wonderful. Love it. And we put Micah's test on our calendar too, we'll be thinking about you guys.
I'm sure we'll talk later :-)

I love the picture of the top. It is so true! Except I think you should change it because you are servant NUMBER 1! The quilt turned out great. I need to get out the sewing machine. I bought a pattern to make reese a dress. I need to get going! I have so many projects and so little motivation. Good luck on the laying on a blanket and holding still. Let me know how that works for ya! I can't believe he is walking around that's insane! I love the grannie clinger blanket in the background! Cute pics! Mason gets cuter with every post!

I LOVE how you chose to do the quilt backing. It is such a fun quilt! Your son is adorable:) He looks just like you (a male version, of course!).
