hey!

Gosh I am super tired. This weekend was preety loaded. I went to Cruces with my dad and my brother Brian because Brian had a orientation at NMSU, the college he is going to. Its a pretty cool college and that is where both of my parents attended there college years. Las Cruces is actually pretty big and really beautiful. Then I had girl scouts on Sunday. I found out that as of today it has been officially a month since I went on my Girl Scout Trip. I doesnt seem that long at all! Then today my mom assigned me and my brothers chores. I chose moving the gravel to another spot rather then doing the dishes. I hate dishes. Moving the gravel took 3 hours opposed to dishes would have only taken 15 minutes but I absoulutely hate dishes! But I got a nice tan out of it =).

A library bag I made for E. She reads a lot and did not like her old bag so now she has a new and bigger bag.


I also finished two quilts for some little ones, but can't show them yet, their grandma might see them. Spent the weekend cleaning my sewing area and weeding fabric. Need to get busy sewing to get rid of all the fabric pieces. I have two weeks till the next sewing club meeting, lets see if I can make at least 5 items. Will keep you updated.


In other news my oldest B is a college student at NMSU. He has his ID and dorm assigned to him so that makes it official. He also is the NMSU marching band. Happy and proud, but also sad he will be leaving in a little over a month.

California!


This is my mom and me when we went to the Grand Canyon with our girl scout troop. Actually our trip was originally to go to California. In California me and the other 12 girl scouts in our troop stayed at the sea world adventure camp where we got to sleep at sea world, explore it and even go behind the scenes! We stayed there 4 days while our 4 troop leaders (one which was my mom) stayed at the girl scout council in Aneheim. But we did many other things such as go to Disney Land and stop by the Grand Canyon. And get this....We got to go indoor skydiving in Arizona on our way to California!!!!! It was the most amazing thing I have ever experienced. It took 2 years of fundraising with my Girl Scout troop but in the end me and my mom had a blast!!

My baby making his own lunch. He's been very interested in cooking lately, so I am taking advantage and letting him do things on his own. Yes, I am right there watching and ready to help.
My mom came last night and is staying with us today, great having her here. She leaves Friday to Washington State for two weeks. Will be worrying about her, but hope she has fun.
