Both ends of the spectrum.

My Dad (Puppa) and Grandson.

You tend to get images like this at family events, don't you? We were waiting around for our turn to "star" in the newly-weds' photos. Puppa and Grandson played a game together. Grandson found sticks. (He's a boy. He has a natural affinity for sticks. They seem to call his name.) He broke them into short sticks, gave them to Puppa to hold, then slid them down the leaves of the clivia one at a time. Who knew that sticks liked sliding? Well, perhaps it should have been obvious. Who doesn't like sliding really!

An October Wedding

It's October!
We celebrated the arrival of October by celebrating the marriage of Mr 21 (my Joseph) to his new bride Amy. Yesterday was a beautiful day and they were two very happy newly-weds.


The newly married Mr and Mrs Paton

The wedding party. All three of my boys are there. Mr 9 is the short groomsman and Mr 16 has his hands in his pockets on the end.

The reception and speeches. (Lots of speeches!!!)

Blogger has twisted my photos again!!!

In order to view my log cabin blocks you will have to turn your laptop (or monitor) on it's side. I'll wait while you do that. . . . . . . Back again? I have been working on the log cabin blocks this week. 48 were required and today I finished the 48th. It did become a bit samey, but I was pretty excited when I got close to the 48th block. Then Loz pointed out that there were 120 flying geese units to be made for the border. I haven't made any yet. *sigh*

Oh! And did you know? It's September! Which is spring for us. Not that today was very springlike. Yesterday had a warmth in the air that said spring, but today was cool and eventually raining. Not that I am sad about that. Warm weather will be here soon enough and not long after that it will be TOO hot. September will be a busy month here at Rosemary Hill. Early in October Mr 21 gets married so September has lots of wedding preparations coming up. But for now, I just want to sew!
