Picture Heavy Post

The last couple of weeks in November have run over into December if that is possible.  I never posted pictures from the Thanksgiving program at the pre-school.

Vail’s class were Indians and Katy’s Class were Turkeys.  They were all so cute.

Vail is third from the left in the top picture and Katy is in the front row in the pink shirt in the bottom picture.

We had a lot of fun in Cleveland for Thanksgiving visiting with cousins et al.  Here are some pictures.

Thanksgiving became almost a memory and …
Then the  stomach bug hit.  It was a nasty one too.  I thought I had escaped it because a week had passed but that’s when it hit me.  I’m feeling fairly normal again and ready to get some Christmas things accomplished around here this week.
While I was waiting for my  turn to be sick I did do a little quilting on my sock monkey quilt.  Tried my hand at some echoing.  It’s looking pretty good although there is lots of room for improvement.  My echoes are shaky in some places.   I’m not finished yet but hopefully will get it finished  before the week is out.  Maybe …. there is deocrating to do too.
