Mr. Sha's Digital Media Project

Mr. Sha had to create a stop motion film for his Digital Media Class.  I thought you all might enjoy it.  It's about three minutes long.

Easter Sunday Around the World...our little corner

We are scattered about this Easter.  I thought I'd share some photos of what it's like here in Logan.  A warmer day, almost spring.  The bulbs Stuc planted for me are peeking through, and the patio Math Man made for her is just lovely with the magnolia tree.  We wish she was here to enjoy it, sans the smoking of course.  The pups had their first trek up Green Canyon and thoroughly enjoyed it.  I could have worn shorts!

Merry Christmas

A virtual Christmas Carol from our home to yours!

Brotherly Love

I thought I'd share a little film clip showing how families bond during the holidays.  Enjoy!

Blue Blankie

I spent the weekend restoring Blue Blankie, which involved deconstructing it, reinforcing nearly every original flowered blue square, replacing several squares, new batting, back, binding, quilting.

Here are series of photos that document the progress.  One shows the back side, with the number of light colored reinforcements (not all - I think only two or three of the floral squares ended up without basking).  The final product has a free "icky corner" - a corner that is not encased in the binding, so Lian can rub her eye and nose with it (hence the name icky corner).   Lian picked out the fabrics.

Heading Home

Up in the air, on our way to Atlanta.  The marvels of air travel today never cease to amaze.  I'm uploading the last of the photos to Picasa, while looking up just how long one should expect to cough with a chest cold (up to three weeks, totally unacceptable).  Mr. Sha is several seats ahead of us, working on math homework.  He got his art homework posted at the Orlando airport.  We have a very short layover at Atlanta, then a long flight, medium drive, then home!  Home, give Stuc her gifts and see the puppies!  It will be nice to see the Joid too, but don't know when that will happen.
