The other stuff...

So, other than the house going well, all is good here in PA.  We went to our grandson's first football game.  He was a bit nervous, the field seemed so big to him.  The practice in a field, but this is their first game and it was held at a local high school's football stadium.  He did great and we're very proud of him.  They won the game... 27 to 12!!!  Our granddaughter, his twin, was supposed to be on the field with the cheerleaders, but unfortunately she got into trouble and wasn't allowed to participate.  Hopefully she learned her lesson and will be able to get back to the fun.  Kids!  It's a lot of work to keep them doing good, but worth the effort.  We're proud of our daughter and her husband for doing such a good job of parenting.

He's out there, a bit hard to see, but trust me...

And for those of you who have been wondering what I've been sewing on, here are a couple that I have finished, except borders.  There are others in the works but keep in mind I am working with limited space and actually limited time too.  I need to set up and break down each time I want to sew, which you know I am not used to... I usually just shut the door to the sewing room....LOL.  So, all excuses aside, here are a couple.

 

And, we found a couple of antique chairs, one rocker, which need to be re-finished and re-upholstered.  I'm hoping Mom will help me with the re-upholstering when she comes to visit.  Boy, have I got a lot for her to do on her visit.  She is so great to volunteer to help with the window coverings and now I'm throwing in an upholstery job!  Thanks Mom!!!

 

Needs a lot of work, old springs and all...

Rocking Chair... comfy but needs work.

 

I'll keep posting, as promised.  We're so glad it is going more quickly than it was, we see differences every day.  We're expecting the plumber the end of this week and the electrician next week.  Progress... you gotta love it!!!
