Good Morning Saturday!

 A nice bright winter / spring day.  Snow better start melting today, as we're all so tired of looking at this - -
From our driveway looking south.  Everyone's car dragged in the middle; the plows finally plowed the road on Wednesday afternoon.  Now there is dirt peeking through.  Notice - there aren't even any snowmobile tracks in this snow!  The snowmobilers are tired of winter too!!!!
This is what I've been working on this past week.  A lap quilt for a special girl that is graduating from high school this spring.  Pretty colors, huh?  Hope she'll like it.  Think I'll have someone machine quilt it.  It's too big to do on my little machine, and I don't want to have a messy job.  Sometimes I don't get even stitches.
Odda had an eye infection earlier this week, but now doing fine.  Maybe allergies?  She is now TWO years old.  Our big baby! 

Her coat is nice and shiney (except for the white area), and I can't wait to take her to the groomers for a bath.  We'll wait until all the snow is gone, and things are greening up.  We laugh at her because she walks around puddles, mud and the brown grassey areas.  She finds her way walking on the snow - well soon that should all be gone.  Hooch doesn't care where he walks.  We have towels at each doorway to wipe them dry.   
Amanda with Odda when we brought her home!   
Hope you all have a great weekend.

No Grandma!

Granddaughter Amanda didn't want her picture taken!  No make up on!  Hardly a picture - no face, and not all of Jack either!
Saturday afternoon visitor was granddaughter and her horse Jack.  She wanted me to trim her hair a little, saying that the ends of her hair were dry.  Just took a little off-just enough to make her feel better.  She had not brought a halter and rope to tie Jack up, and we had sprayed the yard with weed control, so Jack couldn't graze and eat some grass.   She had to hold his bridle while I trimmed her hair.  Good thing Jack is a very good horse.  Maybe he was tired of the ride over.  Then we sucked on popsicles and visited awhile before she got back on to ride the 3 miles home.

A nice day for a ride.
