Successful Trip and a Thank You to Marilyn

Pin It My Mom and I are back and what a trip!   It was so much fun and we had a great time.  Lucas and Sarah are now getting settled into their first place (although they have a lot of unpacking yet to do!) and I think they will be really happy there.

Here is a snap of their apartment complex.  They are very close to the university so they won't have far to walk when it is cold and snowy or when it is raining.  They also live right on the bus route so heading out to shop for groceries will not be a problem.  

Both Lucas and Sarah sends a big thank you to Marilyn.  Marilyn is a friend of mine that lives in Hawaii and a few weeks ago she generously sent a fleece panel from the University of Hawaii.  

She was hoping I could do something with it for Lucas and Sarah and their new place.  Seeing they are in a university, they fell in love with it. 

I decided to add a dark green backing to it and side panels to make it a little wider and it turned out perfect.  They love the finished blanket and it now has found a permanent place on the back of their couch.  It will be so toasty to cuddle under this winter when the snow is blowing.


It feels good to be home and our routine will return to normal but I miss them both already!  I am relieved that they are settled and content, ready to tackle what life throws at them.  We wish them the best!  Love you both!


Remember to give your loved ones a hug!
