Playtime at Heritage Park

What a beautiful day it was on Tuesday when the boys asked their daddy to take them to grammie's house to play!  We couldn't just stay inside and play with the train sets with such warm weather so we walked down to the park to play for awhile.
 
 
I loved how Corbin is now big enough to get himself up the stairs and he can walk to the different slides to play.
 
 
 
Corbin really is happy here.  Wanted me to push him higher and I wasn't moving fast enough for him!
 
 
 
Seriously.  Tyson ASKED me to take his picture here.

The OWLS.

Just in case you don't read my quilting blog, I thought I would show you the Thank You gifts I made for Janessa's shower.  26 owls.

These 2 were my test owls.  The pattern was one fat quarter.  Very easy to make and lots of fun.

Here is a close up of the quilt I made.  

Also made these banners.  These are very popular right now at parties.

Janessa's baby shower

Last night we had Janessa's baby shower.  Emily, Hailey Lamb (a friend) and I got together and planned the event.  We decided to hold it at the library so no one had to have it in their home.

Look who showed up???!!!  Jessica was able to surprise Janessa by coming!  I think she was asleep more hours than she was awake while she was here but we were so happy that she came!  Jessica couldn't get off work on Friday so she drove yesterday and got here about 4 p.m. and left this a.m. at 9 a.m.
Right after she arrived, we drove over in her car to see Emily and the kids.  Poor Annaly woke up crying from her nap.

Corbin showing Aunt Jessica his cars and toys.

Jason came home and was surprised to see his sister there.

Yea!  Annaly is now happy!

Tyson wouldn't come in the house.  We finally had beautiful weather to play outside and all of his friends were riding their bikes.  Jessica tried to get Tyson to look at the camera but he was in a mood and didn't want to cooperate.

We left their house....ran to Taco Time for dinner then off to the shower to set up.  Janessa said that she saw a girl walking in the parking lot with the water container but didn't think anything about it.  Surprise!!!  It's your sister!

Part of the food table.

Emily made a great fruit salad!  The pineapple was yummy!

Janessa got lots of nice items for the baby!

The owl cake.  Janessa made the baby a quilt with owls on it so we tried to carry that theme on to the shower.

Jessica was not going to give up Annaly!

Some of the teachers from Janessa's school.

Hailey Lamb and Cindy Jackson, a friend from Big Piney.

Chit-chatting.

Janessa only got 2 items that were the same.  It was this bumpo chair.  Both were even the color purple!

Several cute outfits.

And other baby items.  I tired hard to get the many facial expressions of Janessa.  :)


 

 
 
 
 

I gave her these clothes and 2 bathing suits.  The one that is 3 months looks bigger than the 12 month one! 

Newest grandbaby's quilt.  It says "Adorable" "Cute" "Kinsley" "Bright" on it.

The onesies I appliqued.


The Redi girls went in together and bought Janessa a nice high chair.

 Hailey made this pillow for the guests to sign on the back.  She blew up the shower invitation and used it for a pattern.

This morning Jessica had to leave so I went with her to fill up her car.

Here it is!

Was a fun time!  Hard to see Jessica go but so glad she was able to make it!
Now bring on the baby!
