Make-A-List Monday -- November

October was a busy, busy month.  We celebrated two family birthdays and Halloween.  

I was able to make a baby quilt for my friend, Kristen's new baby.

I also finished a quilt top that I started in Hershey at Quilt Odyssey two summers ago.

October 2014

(in review)

1.  Spend quality time with my favorite grandsons.  

We had lots of fun adventures during October.  Here are pictures to enjoy:

Ryder in his pumpkin patch.

My darling Logan.  Soon after this picture was taken we lost the pumpkin hat I had made for Ryder a few years ago so I decided to crochet another hat for Logan:
