Spring?

Today we had 80 mile an hour winds I think, probably more like 30 miles an hour. However, the good thing is that it was warm and the sun shone and the sky was blue all in one day. This is my day off after my weekend of work, seems like I have been working weekends forever and for the most part, I don't mind the weekend work because it is quieter and the big kahunas aren't there to pretend like they know more than us who are working. I do think Paul does have some times when he is sick of me being gone when he is home, at least I would like to think he does. I have a faithful friend follower now, so that is a good thing, anyone else out there who would like to follow this unlikely blogger?

My newest adventure, I don't know if I want to sell these, what do you think?

Kids Again

And of course the other four grandchildren; the boys. They have boundless energy , are all so different and unique and are all Schelhaases! For all those grandmothers out there, there is so much room in our hearts for our children's children, hard to explain. If you can't identify them- Isaiah (Sam and Kris) Brody (Ty and Court) Emmett (Nate and Jane) and Easton on Emmett's lap (Sam and Kris)Easton and Ryleigh are the same age, Easton born less than a week earlier than Ryleigh.

Kids

Today I was looking at photos taken by Courtney with the help of her other Sisters in law of their children and I wanted to share them with all of you - whoever you are. The girls are wearing their Foo Foos that I made them, Adi on the right didn't want to wear it, and was bribed, cajoled and pleaded with and then Sam and Kris just nicely told her she had to wear it, so she isn't smiling but she is still so cute and the other two darlings are smiling, so it is my favorite!! Ryleigh performing her trick of SO BIG, how cute is that?

Ryleigh, Ty and Court's daughter in the middle is really having a great time, and Finley, on the left - Nate and Jane's daughter - has a mom who is a photographer, so she is used to posing for pictures.

My First Entry

So, tonight I have created a blog. Can't say this is exciting for me, but thought it would work well with the upcoming web site Linda and I are creating. Linda, my sister, decided to fill her time with sewing jewelry bags, a tradition handed to us from our dear mom. She sewed as long as I can remember, creating fashions for her 5 daughters. I can't say I was ever really ashamed of too many creations, just one that I can remember; my first two piece bathing suit (that's what we called them in the 60's). The first time I wore it in the water, it stretched to twice it's size and I honestly didn't know how to exit the water and get to my bath towel - I am sure my friend for life at that time, Barbara helped me. Anyway, we are not professional sewers or seamers, but we do like to sew small items, as you can see on our website. I just checked the spell check and it seems to not like seamers, but I do so I am keeping it.

So, this is my first entry, can't wait to read it!
