I'm in Utah. I just thought I would let everyone know so they can all come shower me with friendship.

Hot Sunny Days

While Brian was in California and I was in alone Utah, I decided to keep myself busy. I got obsessed with fabric and sewing. I made some bags and skirts and other stuff. But my favorite thing to make was my quilt. I wanted something bright and springy. I finally finished my binding last night and now I can use my quilt. I love it so much. My favorite part is the backing. I used that really soft fluffy fabric. It is so warm and cuddly. Ellie and I curled under it together this morning and talked and giggled. She said she loved it because it was soft. I hope to have many memories with my quilt.

Now I'm going to work on my next quilt for Trev's bed. I'm excited to start the process all over again. I love my quilts!

Goodbye Grandma Cake

I was able to have my mom (Kate) ride out to California with me so I wouldn't have to drive by myself (Brian was driving the big truck). She stayed for a few days and then had to go home. We took her to the train station, with a lot of help from google maps, and were able to say goodbye. It was hard knowing that I was going to be all alone in California. We had to say our farewells quickly since the train doesn't stop for long. I was sad to see her go, but I know I will see her soon. I love you mom. Thanks for coming with me. I'll miss you mucho!

My Crazy Siblings

Most of my siblings were able to help me load our truck to move to California. It was a long hard day, but being with my family almost made it fun. This picture was taken after all was loaded. I was so grateful for all the help. I'm going to miss them so much! I love you all :)
