Kindergarten Graduation

The school year is almost at an end and Bella is graduating Kindergarten!!!

Science Fair Excitement

Yesterday the Science Guy came to Bella's school and astounded them all with his show and tell regarding weather. Bella was picked to help with static electricity and was so excited!  She was still excited about it all that evening and was laughing while telling me all that happened.  It was very interesting to hear her explanation about tornados and how they swirled around!!!

The weather has been so warm for January and so far in February.  We have so many flowers, bushes and trees budding and coming up.  It could very well be a bloomless spring if we get a hard frost or freeze which is very likely from now till the middle of April. 

Quilting

My first pieced quilt block ever is ready to be sewn together.  I joined the En Provence Mystery Quilt that Bonnie Hunter - Quiltville's Quips & Snips Blog had that started at Thanksgiving and just ended last week.  It was a lot of fun and I sure learned a lot about making blocks.  Now to get all the blocks sewn and the quilt made!!

Ready for Christmas
