Good weekend

We decided to head east to see family/friends before Bear starts his next formal training class at work. For the next few months his focus will be on this, so no 3-day weekends to travel on.

Headed out Thursday morning and he was going to his folks house and he dropped me off in P-town. I met up with my good friends that I haven't hung with since last summer.

We went down to Thomasville, GA to a cheese dairy called Sweetgrass.

Come to find out, this is the dairy that my Grandmother mentioned several times, saying that the owners were distant relatives of ours. My Mom did some research and gave me the background and sure enough, I looked up the owners on their site and confirmed that they were cousins of ours. My Mom gave me 2 photos of my Great-grandfather and his brother, to give to our relatives at the dairy.




















The trip was fun and the food was great. Had good laughs and got to play with goats - big & small. Ate cheese, country Mennonite cooking & baked goods. Hugged a huge 329 year old oak tree, made fun of each other and did I mention laugh?

Got home later on Sat. hung with the PS family

and made it to SSchool to see all of our missed church friends.

It was a good weekend.

Happy Anniversary my Bear!

It's been 3 years today! Looking back it seems shorter than that, it really feels like its been a year? Some things have changed, jobs, house & location. But not the important stuff. The stuff that anchors us together like God's love, our love and the fun we have helping each other. These are the things I look forward to each day and if God gives it - many years to come!

I love you.

Update: Sewing the seeds of love

So here's the finished project:

I worked on it Friday and I probably put 5-6 hrs into it and I finished everything but the coordinating fabric hem. The pattern was pretty easy the fabric is 100% cotton so it took a lot of pressing. I think the next one I might try a cotton blend so as to get more ease in the fabric.
