New Washer

We got our new washer on Friday. It is a front loader. It is supposed to cost only $8 a year, very energy efficient. We like all the push buttons.

Dan & Heidie Reception in La Grande


We had a small reception in La Grande in the pavilion. We used Verl's fountain, our trellis, Ernie's mints, Jean's cake, and Heidie's colors.
I liked the watermelon hearts, the sequin plant shoes, the cream puffs, Ernie's cream cheese mints and all the smiles.

Wedding Reception in Medford




Dan & Heidie's wedding reception was a princess theme. Blue triangle flags greeted us at the entry way. Decorations were a wishing well, a frog prince, and 4 fake indoor trees in a row. The guest registration was a photo book of Dan & Heidie that we could sign. I liked that idea!
They had a lowered, draped ceiling with plastic & green netting. We will use the green netting here.
Heidie loves plants & she wanted shamrocks (her favorite plant, but they couldn't find any this time of year) so they used Nasturtiums for the centerpieces in pretty glass jars. The tables were covered with white table cloths & blue & green satin fabric with the plants in the middle.
The quilt in the back ground behind the cake was made by Heidie's Aunt Shelly. I love the colors which matched Heidie's colors.
Chicken salad sandwiches, mints were served with a pretty serve your self lemon flavored water fountain that changed lights. The young girls dressed like princesses. Disney music played in the background & then a DJ came & the Single's branch had a nice dance. It was a fun, pleasant evening for us. We will be stressed at our wedding reception next week.

Oreo's on Bob's Bench







This is Grandpa Bob's bench at Lithia Park in Ashland, OR. We are eating his favorite cookie, Oreo's. We are also killing time while waiting for the wedding reception.
The boys had a race to the top of the jungle toy.

Dan and Heidie's Wedding









Dan and Heidie were married in Medford, Oregon. See how happy they are! They opened the temple special for the sealing.
All our fam was there except Crystal who was in Taiwan. She had an excused absence.
We had fun taking boy band photos of the bros while they were taking photos of Dan & Heidie.
Heidie's mom, Debbie & a friend made the dress! She is gorgeous!
Heidie made her bouquet with calla lilies and feathers. It is fun!
Debbie made all the ties, vests and brides maids skirts too.
I made my skirt out of vintage fabric I had.
Dan & Heidie enjoy your new life together forevah!

Build Your Own Log Cabin


Just finished this quilt top.
Got the free pattern here: http://genea-quilters.blogspot.com
I switched the colors around to fit some upcoming wedding colors.
I really like the big blocks and the log cabin pattern goes together fast.
