Well. . . this old bird has continued to be one of my favorite newest projects. She's coming right along and I am so excited for the next step of piecing the quilt top together. There are still some eyes that I need to embroider on and a few little details here and there. Now that I have this much done, I'll need to head back to the fabric store to commit to the fabric for the border and quilt back. I'll be using the soft pink and light minty green to go with Sweet Olivia's bedroom. I can't wait to see how this comes together.

Anyway . . . I just thought I'd share the progress.

I'm anxiously awaiting the arrival of some of my most FAVORITE PEEPS from Utah. They're coming up to join us for Eagle Fun Days. Eagle puts on the best & craziest Wet & Wild Parade. The beginning of the parade is traditional with floats and always too many advertisements, but the last 15-20 minutes is a HUGE WATER FIGHT. Everyone brings coolers full of water, often garbage cans, lots of water guns and water weapons. What a scream. My kids love it so much, especially my biggest. My little visitors have no idea what their in store for. I think the highlight for some of those not participating in the water fight is getting a good glimpse at the FIRE DEPARTMENT - SOAKED . . firemen, shirts off . . . oh, come on. You know I'm right! Ha ha ha!

HAPPY WEEKEND ALL!
