Lunch with Ashley
Our nice waitress took this picture, it's a little blurry.
Ohhh my! I just got home from Young Women's. I had the grand idea to sew aprons! Why I had this idea, I am still wondering! I don't sew! I gathered all of the supplies that the girls would need, for tonight. I lined up 3 sewing machines, and had plenty of helpers. To make a l-o-n-g short short...2 of the 3 machines where broken! Yikes! One was the wards machine, and the other was a sister in the wards machine. Thank goodness for the one, and only running machine! I was thinking that for the next sewing project, I volunteer for I need to remember to check the machines before hand. That thought lasted about 3 seconds. I came to the conclusion, I am not volunteering anytime soon, to teach 11 girls to sew! :) Anyhow we did get every one's aprons done.
Today I was able to meet up with Ashley, and her sweet little guy. He is the cutest! It was such a treat. It was so nice to sit, and visit with my cousin. I was sitting there chatting when I realized how much we have in common. I know that Heavenly Father puts certain people in our lives for a reason. I feel blessed to have Ashley in mine.

wow that was ambitions to teach the girls in your Y.W. to sew! huge bummer on the machines though.
I love Ashley too! she is so great and the nicest friend ever! what a fun thing to do lunch with your cousin!
Sounds like a worthwhile fun activity, despite the oops! Nice to have lunch out -cute picture;)
Mom,
Oh Man that project was hard. I don't think sewing is my talent. Ha ha. I'm glad you had a good time with Ashley! I love you!
I had so much fun today! It was so great to see you...and chat. I love that we have so much in common too!
I hope that we get to see the aprons. I'm so glad that they worked out!
WOw, her little guy snoozing is SO precious! Wow, you are quite the sewing DIVA!You WERE brave for volunteering in the first place!!
I can't believe you got them all done with one machine working.. what a project.. how nice of you to do that for the girls.. I love aprons.
fun to have your cousin close! her baby is sweet!
You are so cute! I can just see you with the two broken machines. Something tells me, they really enjoyed you teaching them though! Ashley looks like a sweet person and I know what you mean about Heavenly Father putting certain people in our lives. :)
darn those sewing machines! they really are experimental at times!
How fun to meet up with Ashley!!! I love getting together with friends and family like that!
I want to see those aprons! That's incredibly nice of you to volunteer for such an involved project. I hate the frustration of sewing machines. I always have issues when I attempt any sewing projects...which is why my curtain material still sits in the closet untouched. I definitely need to tackle that soon!
post pictures of the aprons.
How fun to have lunch with your cousin. Have a great day :)
Ashley sounds like a neat friend, Michelle. I agree...certain people ARE put into our lives for a reason. I have friends like that too.
I'm impressed with your apron efforts. I wouldn't even know how to set the darn sewing machines up...
I feel so out of the loop on blogs these days! Looks like you've been doing good. Can't wait to see your aprons!
sewing..hmm something i DONT DO!! well maybe a straight line but THATS it-i cant imagine doing a whole apron!!
ditto on wanting to see the aprons. Were you guys at Crackers? That is one of my all time fav places. All I know about Ashley is from her blog, and she is AMAZING!!! Lucky for both of you guys to be related!
