Luke Update

We have been having so much fun with Luke this week.  His sisters, Jesse and Jenny, do not agree though.  It has been 9 years since we had a puppy and what a great time.  Of course Mike is doing all of the taking him outdoors and waking up with him at night.

But is he cute, or what ?????

Luke came home today

We brought our 7 week old black lab puppy Luke home today.  What a precious boy.

It is his first experience with snow.

Mini Mosiacs Progress

For the past two days I have been cutting 2" squares and 3 x 2" rectangles and bagging them up to make the 30 blocks it takes to make the sampler in the Mini Mosiacs book.  I ran out of the main fabric about 5 blocks away from finishing.  I called a couple of "sources" that I thought might have it but no luck.  So I ordered it from thousandsofbolts.com.  All fabric is cut except the fabric that I am waiting for.  It will go very smooth when I get working on sewing the blocks together, I hope ! ! !

Also, it was nice enough to get some raking done.  There had to be 3 inches of oiler shells on the ground under the bird feeder from all winter.  And a whole winter of dog poop, not fun.

SPRING????

Well it was spring yesterday.....today it is snowing, windy and cold, Brrrrrr.  The deer are at the bird feeder eating breakfast and I don't have the heart to chase them away because they are covered in snow.  Hopefully, this is the grand finale of wintery type weather.
