We are recently back from a week camping at Santee Lakes. They call it the best backyard in San Diego. The trip started out with us taking a bug along, so there was a few days of laying low and trying to kick the thing, which thankfully we did!! The Lakes are so pretty, with tons of flat walking trails that I took advantage of. Golfing close by for Mr. P, and he took advantage of that. The best part, our girl and her guy were very close by, so there was time spent with them and lots of wedding planning going on. The biggest woohoo of the trip, my girl and I found my dress for the wedding. Her guy’s family hosted a wonderful dinner for us so we could meet his whole family. A great day for sure, and once again more wedding planning!!!!
Of course we had to visit the Zoo, and especially since the new Koala exhibit just opened. It’s so wonderful and look who we spotted when we were out and about
Since we were practically camping right on their doorstep I just had to take some time out to visit one of my favorite quilt shops
It’s one of those shops you go in and you feel like you are going home. The ladies are always so welcoming and full of quilty enthusiasm.
My last post talking about Mother’s Day I realized I forgot to show this sweet gift from my
So here’s my “bit of something”. Remember the Charming Girls quilt along?? A couple weeks back I saw on another blog a picture of a quilt from that group that a blogger had completed. It started me thinking, where was my quilt?!! Digging through my quilt closet, there it set all done and beautifully quilted by my friends Chris 
and Karen…..needing binding of course!! So I took it on vacation and got that job done. Yesterday I took a bag class and made this super cute ticking bag.
Complete with a snap closure which I have never used before…..easy peasey to put in, and fast too!!!!!!!
Hope you all have some wonderful plans for the weekend.
