For My Lovely Sister Nicole (who's birthday is on Saturday by the way)

So I started a new quilt project. I know quilting is for old ladies but some how my mom got me sucked into it. Anyways, this post is mostly for Nicole because she wanted to see what i was working on. But everybody else can take a peak too. I still haven't decided on a pattern yet.


Sorry the pictures aren't very good. I'm not blessed with the gift of picture taking like some brothers of mine.

These are my main 2 colors.


This is a very dark picture of the complimentary fabrics.


This is another picture of the main fabric. We got a whole bunch of it for really cheap at a quilt shop nearby. I think its Micheal Miller.



This is the (almost) finished quilt that i made this summer.


So yeah, that's that! Have a wonderful week. And if I don't talk to you before Saturday:

Happy Birthday Nicole You're The Best Sister (in law) Ever To Walk The Planet!!!!!

    I love the fabrics you have! I am looking for some similar ones for photography backgrounds. I guess I will have to try our local quilt shop. Not going out today, though. We just got 10 inches of snow last night and I think I'll hibernate until it is done snowing.

    WOW! That is an amazing quilt! I am completely impressed. And no, quilting is not for old ladies. An old lady could never see the needle well enough to create the masterpiece that you have just created! :)

(insert cheesy graduation quote here)

For my graduation present this year my parents suprised me with a new camera. They gave it to me a week or two early so I could take some pictures of my last days of high school and i never turn down a challenge, so here it goes, i have alot more pictures but that would get boring and old so this, my friends, is a run down of my last 2 weeks as a high school senior. It all started out when the seniors got done with class and finals a week early. We were determined to celebrate while every one else still had to go to school. We started off with a giant water balloon fight. Me Trevor Cameron and Matt (top row) all secretly stole water balloons to explode on people before the picture. I forgot that Ian (middle row far right) has muscles and knows how to punch people, don't worry, I'm a fast runner :) We let em off easy the second time. Here's all my pals (well not all of em, most of em) We had a BBQ/yearbook signing/volleyball game. Ian and Matt made some dang good burgers. M

Ya, You Betcha

My family is spread pretty far apart, I currently have 2 brothers in Utah 1 brother and a sister in law in Ohio, 1 brother in DC, and my parents who live in Minnesota. It's pretty rare to have the whole family home, except at Christmas, but as luck would have it, our whole family came home for one reason or another and we got to spend 3 wonderful days up north together at beautiful lake superior. I love Minnesota for so many reasons, one of my favorite things about the land of lakes, is the lakes! My family and I stayed in a little summer home that was right on lake superior. We ate delicious food, went hiking, canoeing, ate at sven and oles pizza and explored some of the sites that surround the lake. The Lake Superior area, or Up North as we call it, is one of my favorite places. Most people don't realize that the moose chair was invented in Minnesota. Split Rock Lighthouse
