A Few Things



There is much to be done before June 28th. My living room is currently covered in ACUs. That's army talk for the new "modern" camo. So as we're getting Johnny packed to go to Army (as Buster on "Arrested Development" says), I'm starting to make sure that I get some new pictures of him. Here's us at a lacrosse tournament last weekend. What a man.



Another thing that I'm making sure I do is cook meals that Johnny really likes. There are these great french fries from Trader Joe's (my fav) that have a garlic sauce that you put on them. I was heating these up for Johnny the other day, and would you believe it, those French Fries had the nerve to catch on fire while I was in the middle of doing something else! Luckily our smoke alarms apparently don't work very well, and we have a door in the kitchen, so my brave army man threw them outside. It only took a few fans and a few hours to completely clear out all of the smoke from our 400 sq. ft. apartment.



I have also finally finished Katie's quilt! Sorry to ruin the surprise with the pics, Katie. It turned out really nicely. I'm wanting to start a little business with them, so if you ever have the need for a quilt or for a nice gift for a new baby, shoot me an email, and we can chat. rhutson@gmail.com



Katie's quilt is a log pattern style in pinks and teal. I've done all pink for Sydney Adams and pink, orange, and purple for Meriahna Adams.

Here's one I made for my sister for Christmas. (Notice Tess looking enviously in the background.) Jessie's getting ready to move her artsy self to Brooklyn for Pratt's design school. I'm looking forward to having more reasons to visit NYC. So, let me know if you feel the need for a fabulous quilt, and I'll get you all the info!

**I've changed my settings so that anyone can comment. Feel free!
