11 November



Joe took Saturday night off! We haven't had a Saturday night together in a very long time.

We went to my grandson's grandmother's surprise birthday party.

It was a fun time. 

And we got to see Verne!

~

My daughter, Hannah, took this picture of Bonnie and Verne.

Mother and son.

It's been so sweet to see Bonnie and her little family.

I love seeing her as a mother.



Just a few weeks later Bonnie took this picture of her sister, Hannah with Verne.

Aunty and nephew. 

I love seeing my daughters and my grandson together.

Can you see the yellow in the quilt?


My online class has me hopping. Nothing is too difficult yet but it's time consuming. 

I am enjoying it though...even if I wish I had a bit more time for it.

Joe and I watched I Remember Mama the other evening. 

Irene Dunne....the old movie not the TV series....

if anyone even remembers either one of those. 

It's such a great movie even he liked it.

    Those are great photos...the little one looks to be growing so already. They don't stay tiny newbies for very long, do they? The quilt looks lovely. I've never attempted making one even though I've always sewn. My cousin makes beautiful ones. I shared some of hers as a guest post on my Peabea's Photography patch. Thanks for visiting me and commenting a linking up. Loved seeing you there. Have a great week-end.

    Such sweet photos of the girls and the tiny baby; memory makers for sure! Hopefully you'll get some more quality time together.

    I love that movie! Sweet photos of Verne. One of the joys of having grandchildren is watching our kids become parents.

Abby and Hopie time

  ~ ~ ~ Abby and Hopie go to the beach. On Saturday my granddaughter, Abigail, asked if she could come to her Hopie's house all by herself. Of course, I said I would love that! Her older brother, Verne, wanted to go to a friend's house and her younger sister, Natalie, is too young to be away from mum for an overnighter. So...it was me and Abigail for the weekend. She wanted to stay 2 nights! I think she may have been slightly motivated by the need for some alone time and Natalie's late night crying. ~ We cooked homemade cornmeal waffles together for breakfast. When your grandmother is a Montessori teacher you learn to cut your waffles up by yourself. You can see the concentration on her face.  I didn't help at all! Verne's first day of Kindergarten! I drove up in the morning to watch him get on the bus! He loves it! On Monday morning Abigail and I drove back up to her house. My daughter, Hannah, came over with delicious donuts and Bonnie made a breakfast of bacon, s

a basket from the farmer's market

  A basket from the farmer's market. When I was a child my mum always had a fruit basket on the kitchen table.  Fruit was always an option if we were hungry at any time during the day. I had the same when my children were young and I noticed while visiting my daughter last week that she had a basket of apples on her table for her children. The apple doesn't fall far from the tree... I tend to put a basket of vegetables on the table as well.  Root veggies mostly since they don't need to be refrigerated.  I think that they look beautiful and why should fruit have all the fun! My favourite part is that everything (even the basket) came from the local farmer's market. It's so important to support local farmers.

On the table

 ~ ~ ~ A bit of reading material.  I've been collecting books again... I've almost finished Think Indigenous.  My daughter bought it as a gift for me but decided to read it first. She loved it so much it took her a bit to part with it. I am loving it as much as she did and have put it down almost all the way through  because I don't want it to be over.  Macro tex
