I met Sarah last summer when we came to Omaha. Her husband and mine have known each other for a while and they went on a hunting trip last October to Idaho. So this was an opportunity to spend some time together and share life stories. Friends are special, I value those treasured moments that are so rare these days. I look forward to more time with Sarah when I visit again.
After lunch I ventured to a new area of Omaha with the help of my smart phone!! Love the navigational App, I was looking for a new shop that I saw advertised in Primitive Quilts.
It is a new shop, 9 months old, you wouldn't know it by all the fabrics, quilts and displays. I really loved everything about this shop. Lyn and her staff were friendly and helpful. Lyn allowed me to take pictures but wasn't prepared that I took one of her!! I would love to have a box of drawers for my threads like she had. There was a complete selection of valdani threads and a nice selection of wools.
If you live in the Omaha area you are lucky enough to have two very nice quilt shops.
It was a fun and active week with my son and his family, time always goes to fast. We enjoyed the zoo, children's museum and I visited the triplets school on Friday afternoon. They are in head-start and I was so impressed with how independent they are becoming. And can I say grown up, wow, they just fall into line, get themselves dressed, cooperate very well for being3 1/2, and ride their school bus. Jaxon loves soccer, Ethan is walking with the aid of his braces and Hayden loves putting his cars and toys in rows. Hayden is very organized to say the least.
The boys had a great time at the Children's Museum, there was a construction exhibit that was just awesome!! It was a great time seeing the boys enjoy all the exhibits and interact with the creative experiences.
I am really hoping that it won't be nine months before I get to spend time with them. Children grow up much to fast and grandkids are one of life's most precious blessings.
Spring blessings,
Carrie
