I love downloading the pics from the kids’ cameras when we get back from a trip.

Here are some of the shots they took during our time in Chicago.

We hit the road for Chicago a couple of weeks ago.  First stop – Museum of Science and Industry

Cj spent some time manning the wheel the avalanche simulator.

The kids playing with color…

We made it to the Shedd Aquarium.

They have some great exhibits, but don’t forget to look up.  It’s a beautiful building.

We had a great view of the sunrise from our hotel.

Cj continued his vacation tradition of having a snack in bed while watching tv.
Lulu suffered from too much jumping on the bed.
We checked out the hotel ballroom.
 We stopped to see Sue and all of her friends.
Someone refused to turn around for pictures at the bean.
I stood in awe of this beauty from 1830.
And finally,
I was able to have the Ferris Bueller moment that I have been waiting for since 1986.

We’ve been busy doing things like sneaking over to the neighbors to cut lilacs.

There have been treats for parties.

We’ve been walking under the blooms.

I found the most amazing button card.

Someone got to make a wish.

I lost my will power in the Easter clearance aisle.

Today I’m working on basting  a lap quilt that I’m hoping to have done by the end of the week.

welcome

I like to make things, like cakes with lots of frosting, and quilts without patterns, and cookies with extra chocolate, and totes that are reversible, and loaves of bread, lots of bread, and also cups of tea.

mybricole, is a running journal of my projects. My own little cheatsheet for tracking what worked, and what didn't in a recipe or pattern.
