A MIX :)

OK!! Such a fun couple of days!! First of all my friend Amanda had her beautiful baby girl...She was born on May 21st at 7:58 am. She was 7lbs 5oz and 20in. long!! Her name is Juile Castle Lines. She is BEAUTIFUL!! I have been to the hospital many times to hold her! She is so so so special! In preparing for her to come I made two baby blankets. When my sister Heidi lived here she refreshed my memory on sewing. I used to sew more back in the day in high school but hadn't for years. For my graduation present I asked for a sewing machine....at the time I did not brag about that too much because my friends were not into that. As it has sat in my closet in the old place we lived I always wanted to get it out and make stuff. This week and weekend was a lot of fun getting back into the swing of things. Believe me do not look close at the blankets they are not perfect but they did turn out ok for me being kind of rusty. On Friday night Blair and I and some of the family went to the East Valley Mormon Choir. It was REALLY good! Blair's older brother Brandon tried out and made it a couple months ago. They were awesome!! It was a Patriotic theme. I lOVE Patriotic songs. At one point they asked all the Veteran's to stand so we could recognize them. It brought me to tears... anyways here are the pictures of the fun weekend!! :)

I only had a picture of one of the blankets
