They = Bloggers who have kids.
My week in LA was great. I spent time at CHA, spent some 1 on 1 time with Aliyah, lots of family time, went to a LAMQG meeting, took a class with Anna Maria Horner & even made a visit to Robert Kaufman's offices. The rest of my family joined us for the weekend and we spent some time watching airplanes at the Santa Monica airport. Later that night we all got dressed up for a gala event where Brad & Karin were honored by their synagogue.
I'm behind on e-mail... and sewing... & blogging... but as a good friend just pointed out "Enjoy your life. It's the only one you get!"
So here are some photos of me enjoying my life.
So here are some photos of me enjoying my life.
me... my new bag & amh
my twin for the day
who knew that coral shirts & jeans along with super cute glasses was the way to go?!
24 photos from one day
taken with 2 iPhones via Hipstamatic Disposable app
The day starts with me & both the kids... then just me & Aliyah stay home while Brad & Karin took Elijah in for treatment. Brad & I each took photos during the day and then Brad snapped the last one of me holding Elijah when we all met up again for Lunch. Elijah is still in treatment & will be for a few years, but things are good. He's a very very strong & brave little boy.

I love your quilt designs and always look forward to new posts from your blog :) Thanks for sharing some "real" life stuff!
Also, that picture of you and your "twin", I seriously thought she was wearing a quilted bug antennae headband or something lol.
Agreed, Enjoy your life!
Looks like a very good time was had by all.

I love your gala dress! Glad you had good family time!
Your nephew and the rest of your family are in my prayers. It's wonderful to see that cancer doesn't slow your family down at all!
Rockin' the Mod Podge T. Love seeing you so dang happy...even if you're so far away! Hugs from Philly....
I love all your photos. You have such a sweet family.
If you guys are fans of planes a trip inland to the little Chino Airport's "Planes of Fame" is a suggestion;

If I were closer I'd help you clean your studio (if that meant I could come and sew with you :-) I'm just north of SF, so it's a little too far:-( Hope you get caught up soon!
thanks for this very personal look into your everyday life... really lovely and special!
