Six.....
half a year,
June.......... the 6th month of the year,
it's the month my youngest granddaughter Hazel is turning ONE....
Six is the number of grandchildren I have....
Lincoln - Hazel - Addison - Olivia - Hailey - Emma
it's the age of my oldest granddaughter Addison,
Six is the number of knees that seem to always need band-aids when the girls are over!!
(doesn't matter if there is a boo - boo or not!!)
Everybody has their own box of band-aids at Nana's house!!!
AND
it's the number of months that have past since I last wrote a blog post!!
It's been a busy 6 months to say the least. Everyday life keeps it that way most of the time!!
It's a known fact that my days pretty much never go as planned!!
We are healthy and good, just busy!!
I count it a blessing to be able
to be flexible with my schedule and help out family and friends when needed.
We've been to
and
In January we hit the road south, down to Ontario CA to participate in Road to California Quilters Conference and Showcase.
We love this show and the friends we have made along the way the last 8 years there.
Along with vending at the show I was able to teach two evening classes.
These classes give me time to get to know the ladies who come to the show and share my love for working with wool!!
This year I was so excited and surprised
to receive the special honor of winning an award for
Outstanding Marketing!!

I am already working on classes I will be teaching this next January at
Road to CA!!
Check out their website for more details to come!!
Four weeks later we headed north to Puyallup (Pew-AL-up) WA
to the Puyallup Sewing & Stitchery Expo.
This was our second year attending this show and it's close enough to home that our kids got to come
and see the booth and bless their hearts helped up tear down!!
Many hands make a load light!!
