Life at the Wilson's

4th of July, Kat and I spent the day at Lake Chelan....Richard showed up for about an hour and floated with us, then we all headed to the house and I grilled steak and pork chops.....Lance and Mikey joined us too.  Jord and I had to work on Friday which was a bummer. Our weekend was pretty non-entertaining.  My swimming buddies were off somewhere in the woods so I didn't go to the lake on Saturday.  Instead.......wait for it.......I got my sewing machine out and started sewing together the tropical blocks I won at a challenge years ago.  I have a block from Jan, Petra, Tamsin, Emma, Mom, Darcie, Aunt Phyllis, Dana, Betty, Aunt Lahna,  Kim and myself.  Pretty neat.....I'm making it for Kat's bed so she can have something new when she moves into Creston's room. Its very bright and cheery and she loves the colors.  It felt good to actually sew.....I haven't done it in about 4 years! Creston is slowing getting better.  The swelling is down and the bruising is fading.  He still has quite a bit of pain in it, however, he did put weight on it last night.....carefully.  Whatever he did to it......he did it good.  We are so busy getting ready for the 100th birthday for Pateros for Apple Pie Jamboree....I will be so glad when that weekend is over!
