Where does the time go.........

I keep saying as I get older the time is moving faster.  I can't seem to keep up anymore.  There's never a dull moment, always something that needs to be done, worked on, created, girls, just fun stuff. 

Raleigh finally had her dance recital Saturday.  She was adorable, of course, as well as all the other little girls that participated.  There were at least 30 dances in the recital and Raleigh's group was number 14 on the list.  So she patiently watched and waited in the audience with her fans.

So here she is on stage.  The little girl next to her wasn't quite sure of her moves.  She sort of followed Raleigh's lead which was so sweet to watch.  Her group made it through their dance number without a hitch and were all so adorable! 

Mina and Raleigh posing after the show.  Everyone took lots of pictures of the future STAR!! 

OK ladies, I'm officially working on the Thanksgiving/embroidery quilt top.  I whacked up lots of fabric yesterday, traced several Thanksgiving embroidery designs and started laying out the pieces.  So I'll start putting them together today so you will have something to look at rather than pieces of paper with sketches on them!! 

So get your needles ready and soon we'll be able to start this Thanksgiving journey together.

Hot, hot, hot weather here in the sunny south so I'm staying indoors for the most part.  You either have to get out early or after the sun goes down to get anything done in the gardens.  Had a wonderful class and lunch at The Little Herb House yesterday.  Lisa is such a knowledgeable and giving teacher.  Thanks for a good time Lisa!!  If you haven't been, you need to visit The Little Herb House.  Lots of beautiful plants and flowers and gardens and STUFF!!!!!

Have a great rest of the week.  Raleigh's graduation from preschool is tomorrow evening, so I'm sure I'll be sharing a graduation photo or two!

Happy stitching.........................
