August 3, 2007

Last night was book club night for my ward. We read 'The Train to Potevka' by Mike Ramsdell. It was a quick read, pretty good. I am always interested in the Russian connection because of Nate. Anyway, there was lovely chocolate cake, ice cream, and hot fudge sauce. Very Yummy. It was a nice relaxing evening for me.

I am working on a blessing dress for baby girl. I decided to do some silk ribbon embroidery on some dupioni. It is turing out really well. I also made tote bags for the kids to fill with goodies to give them at the hospital when the baby is born. Soccer for Jack and Tinkerbell for B. And I made some headbands for Bella and I from Heather Bailey's website, she has a free pattern that turns out very very cute. And I made them from her freshcut fabric, so all the better. Clearly I must have been in a sewing mood yesterday.

Nate and I have our 10th anniversary on Sunday. Marsha is going to come over tomorrow to watch the kiddos while we spend the day at the temple, dinner, and maybe the movies. We have agreed no gifts, after all, we just bought a washer and dryer last week, so we should just consider that. After all, it is something we use everyday, we need, and I am very greatful for.

We are also getting together with all the inlaws on Sunday for a family dinner. This will be the last birthday dinner for a while, everyone seems to be in the spring except for me and Roger, then we have a gap until December. Anyway, so a busy weekend ahead.
