Birthday Presents
Colson and Victoria received packages in the mail today from
Daniel and Elizabeth. They were so excited to open them and
even more excited at what they found. Their dear sweet sister
made them fleece blankets, and they absolutely LOVED them.
Perfect! especially since we just can't out of the "cold zone" here.
Colson enjoying his new sports fleece.
Victoria got two new dresses and of course
she had to do the "girl swirl".

and her cute new fleece! perfect colors, they
match her quilt on her bed!
Thanks Dan and Liz you made their day, you
made their birthdays. They both are sleeping
with them as I am typing this, and Jacqueline too!
Colson said,tonight, "I wish all of my brothers
and sisters lived close so we could be together,
especially on important occasions like birthdays!"
I'm with him!!!!!!!!!
(thank you for all your hard work on "all" the kids
blankets you've made they are treasured as much as
the quilts their grandma has made them)

I'm glad that they liked them!! I agree with Colson about wishing everyone could live close to spend time together for special occasions and just be able to spend time together whenever. Well, hopefully some day that will come true. They are such great kids and I am glad to help make their birthdays special!! The pictures are GREAT! I loved seeing them with their blankets and Tori in her clothes! She look so cute in them. I love you guys and miss you guys very much.

What a special sister! Fifty years from now these kids will be remembering those cuddly blankets!
I know I still remember all those special things from my much older brothers and sisters. Esprcially one brother. He was so special to my childhood. At 81 he is still my hero.
