My extended weekend guests

Bill and I had a fantastic long weekend with my sister and brother-in-law.

My sister doesn't normally have real short hair but she had just finished up her chemo and she is in remission from that terrible cancer.

Janet and Jean

 I know that you can't tell from this picture but when we were younger, people thought that we were twins.   Janet and I went shopping at the mall and some other stores along the way while Bill and Gary went shopping at their kind of stores.  We also went to the casino and had a really great time.  We spent the night at the casino hotel.  And then........... it was time to say good bye.  It was such a short visit and I wish it could have been longer.  They headed off to Arizona to visit with their son and his family.

I did do a little sewing.  I made some slippers for the young grandson.

Ethan's slipper 

  I know they look like the ones I made for him last year, but these are bigger and since he is walking, I put grippies for the soles.  I used the rest of that flannel so I won't be making more with that fabric.  When I see him, I'll try them on him to see if they fit.  If they do, I will make him a couple more pair.   I tried to sew some on the Hunter's Star quilt but I made so many mistakes that I just turned the sewing machine off and walked away!  Tomorrow I will undo my mistakes.  They aren't that bad, I just sewed the blocks together WRONG.  Warning:  Don't sew when you can't concentrate!

That's all from my little abode..........
