This weekend was really fun for all of us. Brian headed out on a winter camp with the scouts. There were 9 boys and 3 leaders that went. They snowshoed to a Yurt in the upper Uintas and slept there overnight. They all had a really good time and luckily didn't get stuck in the snow. It was very reassuring for Brian to call me on the satellite phone just to know they were doing okay. He said it was a very good workout. A good experience for all of them.
So, while Brian was gone I took the kids and went to my mom's house. She wanted to get a quilt going for Ashlee's wedding. I took it as a huge compliment when she said she couldn't do it without me. Friday night I got the 2 fabrics pieced and ready to go. Me, Dad, Mom, Ashlee, and Aaron all worked hard to get it on the frames and ready to quilt. Mom and I couldn't resist putting in a few stitched before bed. Saturday we had a big crew quilting: Mom, Me, Ashlee, Cali, Natalie, and even Aaron put in some stitches. (We missed you, Emily!) We didn't get as much done as I wanted to before I had to pack up my kids and head home. It's going to be a beautiful quilt and I can't wait to see it all done! I look forward to helping with the binding too.

We hope that Brian stayed warm. That looked VERY cold. Sounds like you got a lot done on the quilt too! I felt bad I couldn't be there.
