Blog Award and Baby Shower

Oops! In my last post, I mentioned that the SSCS is due on Nov. 1, but don't panic! The mailing date is from Nov. 10th to Nov. 25th. Thanks to Julie for straighten me out on that one. Now, I can relax a little bit.

Awhile ago, Julie and Peg awarded me with this award. Sorry it's taken me so long to post this; I really appreciated that you thought of me. The rule said that I have to pick 5 other bloggers to pass this award onto, but I could not decided which blogs to pick. So I have decided to give it to everyone on my favorite list. If I visited your blog and commented, then this award is for you 'cause I love you all. Each one has inspired me one way or another. :-)

My BIL and his wife, Annette, are expecting their first baby. Yesterday was the baby shower. I gave them the Pink Lemonade quilt along with Miss Milly... because.... IT'S A GIRL!!! They are expecting a Christmas baby... her due date is Dec.25th! Sorry the pix is so blurry...
