Gregory's Birthday 2009

Gregory turned 14 on Friday, July 10th. Because Dad was flying to Utah that day to be with Grandpa for 85th birthday on the 11th (more on that soon), we celebrated Greg's birthday the night of the 9th. The big surprise of the evening came when Gregory and Jeffrey opened their joint birthday present: A Wii game system with accessories. I love the smile on Gregory's face and his enthusiastic response: "I LOVE you guys so much! I mean, I love you anyway, but I really really LOVE you guys!"
Gregory asked me to bake him a second cake with piles of Cool Whip on it for frosting. "Why?" I asked. Why, indeed!!

Oh, save us and preserve us from the Abominable Cool Whip Monster!
Eyeing his lemon layer cake with greedy anticipation!
"Happy Birthday, dear Gregory, Happy Birthday to you--now make a wish!

Quilt For Maxwell
This quilt I made for my grandson Maxwell is entitled "The Little Engine That Could". He is almost four years old now and he uses it on his bed and still puts things inside the pockets I sewed onto the box cars.
