Congrats, Emily.....

Yesterday afternoon was a fun one @ Fab-Etc. As some of you have noticed, Emily is back from college. She is a full-fledged RN! All of us Fabettes are so very proud of her. We've been trying to find a time to celebrate, but everyone's schedules....you know how that is?!? Sew, yesterday afternoon we surprised her with a little party. Most of us were there, and Mrs. Haggen was so proud of her she baked her a German Chocolate cake =) We gave her a set of those cool decorator Gingher scissors in 4"/5"/8" sizes. She'll put those to good use in her sewing endeavors we know. We're all keeping our ears to the ground in case we hear of anyone needing an RN to work for them. We've been telling her that she can only work within a 10 minute radius, though, so she can come and see us during lunch =)

Otherwise, it's been a great week around the shop. Sharon taught her very popular beginning handquilting class this morning to rave reviews again. She does an amazing job of imparting lots of great knowledge and tips in a short amount of time. Thanks, Sharon! Linda and I kept really busy all day long with folks coming in to get what they need in case they are snowed in this week! And I managed to find the top of the file cabinet and the top of my desk again...hello, old friends!

Personally, it's been a tough few days. Our grandson, Lukas, had 29 seizures from Wednesday to Friday. It culminated with a trip to Children's ER yesterday. But after checking him out, changing a few things and adjusting his meds, he was back home last night and has had only 2 seizures today. We are grateful to the docs at Children's and once again in awe of our daughter and grandson. They are my heroes.

Hope you have a good Sunday. What do you think? Will we get snow up here this week? What a super excuse to slow down and sew a bit. I have some houses up on the design wall at the shop that could use some TLC! Night all.
