Wow, I haven't done a post for a little while....

Time just gets away and I have been doing so much that some days I don't know what day it is.
Yeah, sad, I know....
Anyway here is some of what I have been up to the last few weeks.

We finally had some nice weather that was beach worthy, so we took the boys to Merewether pool. This pool is massive. It is the biggest ocean pool in the Southern Hemisphere.

Yes, I don't like the sun and I don't like sunscreen so I take my umbrella everywhere with me...



 Except for when I go out in our little blue race car. I have to wear sunscreen when we are out in it but that's ok because it just so much fun..
Paul & I had a day to ourselves so off we went to the Hunter Valley for a lovely lunch at Harrigans Pub.


 Paul just loves his car.



Next up...our big boy Ethan turned 15. We had a small family BBQ. The cake was a bit of a failure to look (the ganache icing separated) at but it was delicious....



Myself and my Beautiful Sister... She played with my hair like she used to when we were young. It was so nice and relaxing...


 My crazy Boys...





On the quilting front...
I quilted this beautiful quilt for the gorgeous Ena. The fabric is antiquey so a beautiful double rose pattern was perfect....





A close up...



A shot of the back...



 This is a quilt I made a couple of years ago. It is a real cheater quilt. I don't know why it's taken so long to quilt it. I am slowly, when I have spare time, getting through all of my quilt tops in the cupboard and getting them finished....Yay...


 I love this quilting pattern.. it suits the quilt perfectly...

Lovely, happy family pics. The quilts are beautiful - the quilting really brings the second one to life. Well done.
