A Magical Time

Here are some pictures from our recent trip.  Aspen Grove Family Camp is truly a magical place! Here are some things offered:

We did an Escape Room in a cabin in the woods.  We had 45 minutes to get out and got out in 38 minutes 😊

High and Low ropes courses

Arts and crafts, including pen making, pottery wheels and all kinds of painting

Hiking and board games

Age group activities for the children

Mini golf, pickleball, tennis, shuffleboard, horse shoes, corn hole, archery, air rifle and many more activities for kids and adults

Aspen Follies night (fun family games) and Frontier Night with a live band, Aspen Frolics (pool) night, Talent Show night, Fireside speaker and closing program with songs and slide show.

This is us on Father's Day - Mike and I with all of our children 🥰

Many of the activities include tournaments.  We competed in all of the pickleball tournaments and many others.

Jonathan made a pen for Audrey

Aspen Follies games

And the best part for the Moms is that all meals are included in the dining hall - yep, no cooking and no cleaning up!  We had such a BLAST, we're all looking forward to doing it AGAIN!

Family Fun

Teaching Embroidery

I've taught a few embroidery classes over the years, but this past week I got to teach my granddaughter a few stitches and she took to so quickly, not only learning the stitches but creating her own designs!! Above is just the start of a very cool design.  I'll try to get a picture of it when it's all done.  Below is her first design, after embroidering her name on a pillow and the third picture is a pin cushion she made me to story all of my needles! Then she kindly separated out all of the pins from the needles!

Now she's back home learning to cook bagels and croissants with her Mom 🥰

 

Inspired Yet?

Are you inspired yet to put something fun on the backs of your quilts?  These are the last of my Jan McFarland quilt pictures.  I think it would be fun to do this!

The last two quilts pictured, I just got photos of the fronts of the quilts. 

I finally made it to the sewing room today!  I'm feeling productive 😊
