Wow, it's hard to believe it's been four years already! I'm glad we survived that crazy backpacking trip* along the Na Pali coast earlier this week. I love you tons!

Newest quilt

Wednesday, December 15, 2010

I made this baby quilt for some old friends (Josh and Kim) who are expecting a baby in February. I really love it, and I didn't want to give it away. The fabric for the quilt came from the Modern Meadow collection by Joel Dewberry.


Anberlin and bunnies

Sunday, October 31, 2010

On Friday Laura and I went to an Anberlin concert in Philly.  Crash Kings, Civil Twilight, and States opened - we liked all of them.  I was especially impressed because the Crash Kings piano player/singer looked exactly like Daniel Faraday from Lost.  I was quite amazed.  I kept on expecting really awesome unexpected things to happen (like some cool electromagnetic fields to suddenly blow up, or some smoke monster to liven up the the show) but, alas, nothing out of the ordinary happened.  Unless you consider hearing loss out of the ordinary, but you shouldn't.  My ears have mostly stopped ringing - hopefully they will be healed by tomorrow.  Anyway, it was an awesome rock concert, and I am glad that Laura agreed to go, even though she wasn't as interested as me.  Here are the few obligatory rock concert pictures where you can only make out a few fuzzy details.  It was standing room only:







And, because we are turning into crazy bunny people, here are a few more cute zingers from ol'Pooks and Reeks (or the bones as I like to call them).


Their cuteness defies all description.

PS - Since this is a post about Anberlin and bunnies, I should make some sort of connection between the two.  Bunnies hate rock concerts.

Mission Accomplished

Wednesday, October 6, 2010

For those of you who haven't heard, Pookie and Rico are officially bonded!!! It took long enough (6 months or so), but we're so happy to see how much they love being together. Here are some pictures from the last few weeks.




Quilt block -- week 13

Sunday, September 26, 2010

I designed this block myself because I didn't like the one I was supposed to make. And, I made sure to put plenty of orange fabric in it so that Dan would like it! I'm getting really close to being done with all the blocks for this quilt -- only four more to go!!

A little Spain,

Monday, August 9, 2010

So, Laura is too into reading nerdy books right now, so I thought that I would make a quick post about Spain.  First, a link to the total collection: we haven't finished tagging them all yet (I know, I know), but I got tired of witholding the goods from everyone.  So, here it is:

Spain!

Here are a few of my favorite pictures from my favorite place in Spain, Granada:

The inside of our hotel

Where we went to see flamenco dancing - follow the link above to see videos!

Right outside our hotel in the morning

Some wonderful detail at the Alhambra

Time for a little kissy face

A view of Granada from the Alhambra.

I was a wee bit tired and sick

But they had the best ice-cream ever (I went three times that day and got the same flavor - mandarin orange)

And then I used a space-age type porta-potty

And finally, we all slept in close quarters to end out the day - you can see my bed on the top.

A new blog design

to tide you over till the grand Spain post.  A snow covered house seemed a little silly, considering the season.
