Last Day of May!!



I can't believe the last day of May is already here!! School gets out next Friday and I cannot wait!!! This week was very stressful. I got a call on Thursday morning. My grandmother suffered a stroke Wednesday night. It affected her ability to swallow. I went and visited with her today at the hospital. It was very hard to see her going downhill so fast. She seemed so weak and small today.
On Friday, DH and I went with my co-workers to the Arkansas Naturals Game. It is our Minor League Baseball team. The high school rented out the bull pen cafe. We were able to eat all the Hamburgers/hotdogs we wanted from 6:00 pm to 9:00 pm. This also included cokes and waters. It was kinda weird because my Hish School is so HUGE that I didn't know half the teachers there. I was asking others who there were and what building they taught. My High School has two buildings...the South Building, where I am located, is the older of the two. Then there is the new building - the North building. It was really nice to finally put some faces to the people I email!!!
Saturday was Boo club at my LNS. I was able to almost finish the pattern EEK! Becki was kind enough to stitch my spider legs on my Spiders design. I was scared to death to stitch them because I knew I would screw them up!!!! I also cashed in some of my "BEE BUCKS" for some new patterns. I bought the new JCS Ornament preview magazine. It has several designs I want to stitch!!
The designs I am showing off are my Lizzie Kate BOO Club, Winchester house...I just stitched the palm tree, My BLue Ribbons Designs - Sewing Sampler and finally my Spring Panel by Ozark Samplers.
