Playing Hookie...

It's that time of the year when the teachers get "Senioritis" just as bad as the students--I've caught a real bad case. Almost there...I can't believe it's almost time for summer.

In the meantime, I've managed to play hookie a few days and weekends:


Went to Las Vegas with my sisters and my mom for a spa & skin convention--Thank you Stef for the facial product HOOK UP!


Ate way too much at Serendipity's!! This might be my new favorite restaurant--I have always tried to go in New York but the wait has always been way too long--now I know why!


This is a horrible pic but we caught the Beatles LOVE show and LOVED IT--been listening to the Beatles constantly the past few weeks!


Couldn't resist one more trip to Disneyland before the hot summer!


The girls loved swimming and playing around the hotel.


The MOST SINCERE try I have ever seen! I think someone at school told her something amazing would happen if she could pull the sword from the stone!


Second most sincere try-- (mainly to try to one up the big sister!)


Is there anything better than a tigger tail? I tried to be a "good mom" and only let her eat a little bit, but no such luck... There was no way she was going to give it up.


Nothing better than hearing her laugh on her favorite ride!


Other than that we've had fun going to museums...


Ran Pat's Run with my dad, brother-in-law, and the girls...


Had Dad's 60th Birthday party, including a race and picnic in his honor!


Before his birthday, I spent Easter weekend cutting and bonding all of these...



Meanwhile, attempting to teach Knocky how to put the egg in the dye without getting it everywhere (yep, that didn't work out)...


Took a break from sewing to play out in the last of the snow at the cabin...


Eventually, I put it all together to make this quilt with my dad's favorite races for his birthday. Forgot to take a picture of the final project but I was a little cross-eyed by then. This quilt was a little more challenging that I thought it was going to be...but all worth it in the end!

Did I mention school is almost over???? Is it Friday yet?
