Stocking and Camera Love

Last day of school!! For David, that is. We went bowling with his Tau Beta Pi Chemical Engineering Honor Society.  We got to bowl two games, both of which David scored well over 100!  We won't mention my scores, but let's just say I was happy to have a strike each game :)

The past few weeks have been like early Christmas.  David and I bought a new camera for our Christmas present, since we are going to have cute children to record now.  It got here about a week ago and we have had lots of fun playing with it ever since!

We've also been getting baby gifts in the mail! And, I've been making my own gift for baby-- her stocking!  I thought of sewing her a stocking several weeks ago, and it didn't occur to me until recently that she won't even get to use it for like 12 months. Oops!

Anyways, I found a cute quilted pinwheel stocking design on Pinterest, bought the pattern, and had lots of fun picking out the fabric.  It is almost done-- I just need to add her name on the top cuff, but I'm waiting to do that so it will remain a secret until she's born.  Since I can't control my pride (this is my first time piecing AND quilting something of my own), here is a picture of the almost-finished stocking. Taken with our new camera, too!
