Quilt!!!

I have always wanted a quilt made from a mother, grandmother or some family member. I love the look of them and the idea that it can be passed down through generations. My grandma Terry took me shopping while we lived in Portland to pick out fabric and a pattern from he huge pattern book. She made me a King size quilt, which at the time we only had a queen but finally got a King bed. It looks so beautiful. She had it stitched with the flower pattern that is so light and gorgeous.

Easter 2011

We had a great Easter egg hunt in our yard with the Perkes, my mom, my brother and his wife. It was a little wet, okay it rained off and on but the kids loved it. They got to take turns hiding for their aunts and uncles. The kids had yummy chocolate filled baskets as well, well not chocolate for Jackson just lots of jelly beans and starbursts. We had a great dinner together that evening.

Brandon's Bday to Portland

For Brandon's birthday I got him 2 tickets to see his favorite team, the Spurs, play the trailblazers. He went to the game with his friend Nick, they worked at Portland Costco together, they went out to dinner before. Sadly his beloved trailblazers lost, he was a slightly irritated. I sure Nick had fun giving him crap all night. My mom got a hotel room for all of us and hung out with the kids and I Friday night. Saturday we all went to VooDoo donuts, my mom still hadn't been there. We also went the waffle window, such a delicious find. Then we swan and hung out in the hotel before heading home on Sunday.
