Swap for Fabric Basket Swap

My partner was Rachel from wooden spoons! She LOVES low volumes and green. The package was going overseas so I wanted to make it light but still a lot of fun. I thought this basket was a good choice. It's reversable too!

Kindergarten graduation

This is Bee with his teacher, Ms. Campbell on the last day. Ms. Brenda is in the back.

This is Bee's best friend this year, Isaiah. See that rainbow chart in the background, that was how they did consequences for the kids. They started and green and what color they earned at the end of the day, that was what color they got for the day. I did not agree with this because it wasn't an average for the day, it was what color they were on at 3pm. Bee could have been awesome the whole day but the last 5 minutes told his teacher no, he gets a purple day. And then their self-worth is rolled up into these colors. Bee said he was a bad kid because got a purple or blue day. That's when we stopped caring about the chart. When Chris and I were in school, we didn't get notes home every day about how we did in class. If we got a note home, it was because we called Cosme a turkeybutt!

Dragon at graduation, wanting to play with the balls.

There was over 100 kids to hand out diaplomas to. This was Dragon, Globug and I sitting on the floor.

Sunday

I had to take a picture of my boys. We can't see well but dragon and glo have a faux Mohawk. I did fix bees tie. 

I made the boys pouches just for church. A notepad, couple crayons, plastic animals and one car. 

They did a great job being quiet this week so I call these a success!! I will switch out things to keep it interesting. I hope I remember! :)

So sweet

I am (really) rile good at playing catch with my dad. 

(The spots are dad's uniform and Bee's camo shorts/shirt)

Ivig drama

In May, I got my blood drawn on Monday. I didn't get the results until Wednesday. They were 53K. I got them drawn again on Thrusday. they were 34k. We decided that since they were trending down and it was Thrusday, that I would go up to ABQ that night and have IVIG at 8am on Friday.

These are my pre-meds so I don't have a reaction, or slow it down if I do.

IV and quilting the binding on the red/pink quilt.

My view....ABQ's mountains

Doctor's note for Chris. We love Dr. Quintana! I'm so glad she had me stay the night becuase its so much more comforting to know that a hosptial that can handle me in five minutes away, not 15 minutes to a helicopter ride.

Things I want to make

Look at these things!! I need a cleaning lady and a cook and about a million bucks for fabric!

Pinterest/Craftsy

We were driving up to Ruidoso to pick up Ben from the Ford dealership. Melissa texted me and said get on Pinterest for a Live pin chat. I didn't know what I was suppose to do but listened. It was easy to figure out...just answer the questions in the comments on the pins. Craftsy people then took everyone that commented and randomly picked a person....ME!!! I won $100 to Amazon!! Awesomeness! I bought quilting books, clover pins and more bobbins! Sooo fun!

Thanks Craftsy!

Boots

I have been waiting to buy these boots. They have been on backorder FOREVER! I finally bought them and LOVE them!! They are 8.5 which is weird because I usually wear 9 in regular shoes but hey, I don't care. They are wonderful.

Monkey

 

Yup I have a monkey in my house.

 

Of course I was standing right now and the burn was off. I have since put a towel between the drawer and oven door so he can no longer do this!!

Pink and red quilt

This is a bunch of bee blocks I've put together. I received a class from Ann, on craftsy about free motion quilting. I got to thinking that if Ann can be brave and do it, I can too! 

So I decided to put this sampler together and try out a different design in each white part of the blocks. It was really a lot of fun and I learned lots from just trying things out. 

I will stitch in the ditch on the blocks that don't have white in them.
