Busy month : Holidays

This is what I have been up to for the last few weeks. My son sold his house so it was all hands on deck to help with the packing up. With lots of offers from family, numerous boxes were packed and stored, the house and yard were cleaned and tidied and the house was ready for hand-over on time.
Scott and my grandson have moved in with us for a while, so this weekend has been spent setting up their area and finding room for all the bits and pieces they brought with them. Below are some photos of Jake with his new bike. His Dad finally put it together this morning and he has been riding it around our yard most of the day. He had a couple of spills but seems to have the hang of it now. Our old dog Cain has been enjoying running around after him.



Also, I did manage to spend an hour in my quilting room today so that I could add borders to my Tis the Season June blocks. I have traced the last three blocks so I can take them with me on holidays. We leave on Wednesday for 3 weeks in California. When we booked the trip in January, little did we know that the trip would coincide with the house sale, but luckily it has worked out perfectly. Well must close as I still have lots of packing to do and checking of my long list of things not to forget. I am taking a laptop with me so am hoping to blog about our travels while we are away. Hope it goes a lot better than tonight as I have had so much trouble with posting my photos. So bye till next time...........
