How Blue can you make me...
I'm over the blues! Woo-hoo!!! Aren't they the sweetest little things? It was so worth going through all that hassle of working through these dresses. They were so tickled with them- and the bride loved them and thought they looked adorable. Boo had a few moments of nervousness at the rehearsal, but the wedding was a cinch- I think they were just so tickled with their puffy dresses! She and I finally made a deal. I would put curlers in her hair (which is naturally curly) and she would be happy during the wedding. She took her word quite seriously and smiled the whole time. Eva had curlers and she wants to do whatever Eva does. That was an easy fix. The wedding was lovely and the wedding cake was pretty good, too! The bride was barefoot and get this... they had their first kiss, ever, when the preacher said they could!!

The trip to Florida was mercifully uneventful. My DH kept saying how impressed he was with my packing. That went a long way in making me feel like I had accomplished something. Hey, I was on the road... that was a major accomplishment. Kentucky was very pretty with Spring showing her face. Tennessee was even prettier, but there was a price tag on everything. No not literally, but it just seemed very touristy. Georgia... well, my DB lives in GA and loves it, so I'm gonna be nice. The traffic was not fun and the people were understandably grumpy. Only ran into one friendly face outside of family. My DB, David flies planes and so he took me on a tour of the world through the satellites. Found my folks farm and our house. That was cool. Spent the evening and night with his dear family and that was a real treat- especially for all the cousins. Arrived in Florida, Wednesday evening. Wedding was Friday afternoon, and now it's time to relax and have a little vacation. ahhhhh...

My DSis, Laurie has a fancy-shmancy embroidery machine. "I" made two redwork pieces to later sew into bodices for jumpers for the girls... maybe I'll make another tomorrow for Maddie. And then, and this was FUN... "I" sewed a label for Sarah's quilt challenge quilt! Prettiest label I've ever seen! Lots of blue and just a touch of orange! They are feeding us too well, but figure I'll just try to be good when I can and succumb when I can't! What's a girl to do? We are leaving for Daytona in a couple days and will spend a few days there before returning to Indiana and time to plant the garden. I sat in the sun for 10 whole minutes, today and nearly got burned. My pale northern skin isn't used to the UVs here. That's what locals call the sunshine.
