 Haven't been together in a while...Mare had a wonderful trip to Spain...and is headed for a Mediterranean cruise in a couple of weeks.  Lois is getting a new heater. Joe and Dolores celebrated their 25th wedding anniversary on Tuesday....and, to celebrate, are headed to California on October 1st for a week - yes, they're going together! Erin is taking her learner's permit test next week....oy! Lori came later and brought a beautiful Irish chain quilt she made for her MIL - sorry I didn't get a picture. Lor - if you take one, send it to me. Thanks to Cathy for hosting......nice to see everyone....life seems to be going so quickly sometimes. LA started quilting with us just after Sean was born.....and now he's going to be the middle child! I'm always grateful for the 'mamas. Take care, girls.....have a nice weekend. Piece.....

PS: Does Gerry have us on speed dial?

Nice weekend?

Hope you had a  nice weekend....saw Cathy at Red & White day........she offered to host bee on Thursday night - around 8 to let folks get their kiddies, etc settled and then come. Beautiful weather and the Phillies won their division - it's all good. Take care.....have a nice start to your week and hope to see y'all on Thursday. LA - hope you can make it because it may be the last time we see you pregnant! Piece.....

Let the praying commence.....
