Well Jason and I have found a home in Wenatchee. It is in East Wenatchee and has a gorgeous view of the Cascade Mountains and the Wenatchee river. I am looking forward to living back in the Northwest. I have enjoyed my stay here in the Midwest, but I am a nature girl at heart and I miss my evergreens. I will be close to all of my family who are spread out all over the state. I will be able to make frequent trips to my home town of Sequim, the beauty there is soooo inspiring! Right now we are back home in Illinois. My niece came with us from Montana. She is 11 and so much fun to have around. She is going to help us pack and get things in order to move. We make the journey in August! I hope to be able to put a few projects together in the mix. We’ll see. I am also really looking forward to the festivals that Washington has, I am sooo excited!! I will be posting pictures of our trip very soon, I just wanted to stop in with an update.
Have a wonderful day!

I am a playing catch up trying to get several items finished that I want to take/wear on our trip. I had a marathon sewing day yesterday and can’t wait to show you what I finished, hoever it has been very gloomy here. I hope I the sun comes out soon so I can post pictures. When I am in my room sewing I zone out, I am in my own little world. Last night my mind drifted and I was thinking about the most wondeful, amazing woman my grandmother. In thinking about her I realized, that was where it all began. She has worked for the Serenity house for some like, 35 years. When I was little she would station me at the sewing machine and I would sew washclothes, towels and/or hankies, mending holes in them or sewing up the raw edges so they could be sold. I can’t help but smile every time I think of her, as a child I spent a lot time with her. Every where she went, I was there right by her side. We would spend hours in the garden, I was “digging for worms”, picking cherries for cherry pie, baking, working on the house, going for hikes and picnicing. At the end of the day no matter what, she always laid next to me in bed and read me a story. She has been a pillar in my life, I cannot wait to see her! 11 days and counting!
I just love this picture. I took it in July 2006 in Eugene Oregon when we took her on a road trip down the coast to see her girls.
