Sibthorp update...

Just a short note to catch up on our goings-on. Mostly I have LOTS of photos to share. We have been anxiously awaiting the final reveal of the new facade on our house. You can keep up with the progress here.

We had a trip to our local zoo last weekend. The weather was great and Laurel had a blast. Her favorite part is the train ride. You can see photos here.

I've also been working on a quilt for Laurel. I realized while I was sewing it, that even though its her quilt, its really for me. You see, the book by Erik Carle titled "Brown Bear, What do you hear?" is a classic children's book that she loves, and the fabric for this quilt is based upon that book. This quilt will always remind me of this time in her life, and of her reciting the book to me as we turned the pages. You can see "Brown Bear..." and my other sewing projects here.

Lots of New Photos...

I've posted lots of new photos in the following albums:

Rowan's Monument - we're sharing these photos with our friends and family who can't just hop in the car and visit.

Check out new photos of Laurel having some backyard fun.

Lets not forget about the Sibthorp stimulus package. You can see the progress here.

And finally, here's my quilting updates. I'm starting to get the hang of it.

Have a great day!
