my birthday

Shaun had been asking me for my moms number which was weird. Well so Im standing there at Kohls with a line waiting for me to ring them up when this smelly delivery guy asked who Katie Dawson was. I looked at him and said something about me being the only katie d who works there and he turned around showing me the most BEAUTIFUL flowers.

Shauns christmas!!!!

So I have been working really hard at keeping this a secret... I totally cant keep present secrets....BUT for the last few weeks I have been working on a quilt. I found this really nice blue fabic. and then a green piece and then...oh then I found a green and blue plaid with hunting orange pin stipe!!! so clearly I had to get that too. All in all I ended up with some hunter orange fleece and a patterned piece with bears and moose on it! Oh I am so excited about this. it is done now but here are some pics of the work in progress.

Tauna and I cut out the 12x12 squares and I sewed them all together. Then Mrs Tammy let me put it on her quilter to finish it.

Rainy day.....rainy rainy day.

So this past week, maybe you have heard, the East Coast was hammered with rain. And more rain and more rain.. I mean we started this week with so much rain on sunday and monday we beat our biggest record... and that was during a hurricane!! haha so monday maggie and I didnt want to partake in the service group so we went and played in the rain.
