Mardi Gras and T Shirt Quilt Complete!

I have been absent for a while. What can I say? Life gets in the way sometimes, and other times, I feel like I don't have much to update about.

But this weekend, 2 special things happened.

We experienced our first Mardi Gras. It was in Shreveport, so nothing crazy like New Orleans, but we still had tons of fun with our good friends, and experienced a little of the Big Easy, up North. Here's my loot.

And the second thing, is that I FINALLY finished binding my T-Shirt Quilt! Its complete except for my quilt tag, which I will be doing soon!

Heres my backing. I fell in LOVE with this fabric and ordered it online from College Station. I am loving the way it turned out, and now feel pretty competent in the quilting department. I love my new craft! :)

Other than that, school is rolling on, and Dallas has about a month left in training before we will move to the 20th Bomb Squadron (AKA real live Air Force). I can't believe we left Enid 9 months ago. Its crazy to think about how quick time is passing. Which right now, I don't like. Yet another bestie (Amy and Derek Smith) of mine (ours) will be departing soon and will have to begin another long distance relationship. Yuck. 

Speaking of being here for 9 months, thats about the time it takes to cook a baby. 

No. I am not having one. (Not any time soon, either.)

But, my good friend Allison Pride will soon be having a little Zoe, and its Shower time! I am so excited for the things me and Amy have been crafting up for the shower, and for the great things Allison is going to get! Its going to be a pretty great time with yummy food and awesome friends! Pictures of that will come in about 2 weeks. 

Next weekend were going to trek to Dallas/Ft. Worth to meet up with some friends that still live in Enid. She and her husband have probably the sweetest baby in the world, and we have yet to meet her! Another bonus....I am going to get to see my lovely Susan Riley. OMG. I can't wait! 

Thats all for now,

Have a great week and Happy Valentines Day, if you do that sort of thing.
