It's Geema and Spencer!!  It's been so much fun to get to know this little spitfire.  He is just so funny.  

Today is the 34 year anniversary of my original breast cancer diagnosis.  I've written the story in the past (and shared it to FB today) so I'll leave it there.  I'm forever thankful to still be 'here' and to keep moving forward.

Life in Lynden has resumed pretty smoothly.  The hard part is have LJ now retired and home everyday.  We often have to check our phones or iPads to figure out what day of the week it is.  

A couple of friends have been to visit from sunny CA, and Friday Joey is coming for a brief stay!!  We will hit some quilt stores, a guild meeting and a quilt show before I take her to Seattle, so she can keep her appointment before flying back to Napa in the afternoon.  

I'm really, really hoping that the weather will cooperate and I'll be able to make the road trip to Auburn CA the week following Thanksgiving to play with those wonderful quilting friends.  

In the meantime, prep will begin on the first large family Thanksgiving we'll be hosting here.  
Welcome back.
