Aaand....she's off to college! She had a few hiccu Aaand....she's off to college! She had a few hiccups moving into the dorms but everything turned out ok in the end. She already found "her people" and made new friends in one day.

We had a tearful goodbye but I know she'll do amazing things at San Jose State.

Good luck, Mya, we're rooting for you!

An evening at the beach! We like going later in th An evening at the beach! We like going later in the afternoon when the crowds leave. The tide was getting higher and we kept moving up the shoreline the whole time. But the waves were fun for boogie boarding and the beach had a lot of sand crabs that kept the kids entertained. The water temp was phenomenal. So refreshing for a hot day!

We had a short get-together with some school paren We had a short get-together with some school parents. I made tortellini and tomato skewers, chicken salad choux puffs, tater tot and bacon cups, and more

My 7-year old helped me with a lot of the prep so hopefully she'll be my little sous chef in the future!

I had to play music for a funeral and clean between all this prep so it felt like it took all day. Now it's time to relax with a glass of wine!

It took a few years and now it's almost done...jus It took a few years and now it's almost done...just in time to send it with my oldest to college. I procrastinated for a while. I wasn't in the mood to finish any of my quilting projects. Then my daughter nagged me and here we are.

I finished the last block set last night. My daughters and I "auditioned" the blocks this evening. Next, sewing it all together and getting it quilted.

Does anyone know a good quilter in San Diego (preferably south of the 52)?
