Happy Birthday Laura

John was really very kind to bring his tent to th party to help shield people from the hot sun. Only probem, the tent wasn't easy to assemble. Lots of duck tape was use but it finally stood worthy of a great tent to offer shade. Unfortunately, the heat was so unbearable (100 degrees), no one took advantage of it. Not even the pup. Thanks guys for trying!

The last birthday picture that I have of Laura

(she wasn't alway happy to have her picture taken)

She shared all her food always with her pup


Laura, We all miss you so very much.


Princess Pup getting lots of love

Up and away went the balloons with messages to Laura.
K and S also wrote on the balloons.

July 18, 2010: This is my largest quilt so far and the first one that I gave as a gift. It took a long time to complete. I hope Baby Parker loves it and gets lots of use out of it.
