Livin' the Dream: July 2014
http://betty-the-blogger.blogspot.com/2014_07_01_archive.html
Guilin and the Li River. Because of flight delays leaving Shenzhen, it was nearly 2 am by the time we got to our hotel - The Lijiang Waterfall Hotel - in Guilin. Fortunately, they let us sleep in a bit and not have to start too early the next morning. A corner of our room at the Waterfall Hotel. View of the street below our hotel room window. In China, Guilin is considered very small, with a population of only 700,000. Our guide was Tao, and his English was excellent! One woman on our tour was traveling ...

Livin' the Dream: June 2013

Yesterday, I finally put Ryann's quilt in the mail! After months and months of stops and starts, of delays and interruptions (including having to pack away all of my sewing area to stage the house to sell) it is finally complete. I'm so happy with how it turned out and I hope she'll love it. Hours I spent making it = 66. Cost of the materials = $191.93. Love in every stitch = immeasurable! I had to stitch the first part of the binding at the dining room table. Since so much is packed away. We found a hou...

Chabo Stew: September 2009
http://chabostew.blogspot.com/2009_09_01_archive.html
The Life and Times of Travis, Laura, Sophia, Holly, Lucy, Alice, and Penny Chabo. Tuesday, September 8, 2009. Big day of firsts. A few weeks ago as I was filling out the necessary forms for Sophia to start preschool I got really teary-eyed. I can't believe she's going to school. Not that she isn't ready (She's more then ready.) I can't believe she's gotten so big. I know she's as tall as a 6 year old, but she's still only 4 1/2! Well, she loved every minute of it and can't wait to go back. A big day of f...

Chabo Stew: August 2011
http://chabostew.blogspot.com/2011_08_01_archive.html
The Life and Times of Travis, Laura, Sophia, Holly, Lucy, Alice, and Penny Chabo. Monday, August 29, 2011. Tales of a Naughty Blogger, part 2. This is what we've been up to more recently. The girls and I took a trip to northern Virginia to visit my parents. We stayed for a few days. We shopped till we very literally dropped and had a great time relaxing with 'Nana and Papaw'. Alice with food hanging out of her mouth. She loved Nana's ginger bread cookies. The sheets we decorated with Hershey kisses.

Livin' the Dream: December 2013
http://betty-the-blogger.blogspot.com/2013_12_01_archive.html
For the first time in several years, we had all of our children and most of our grandchildren together for Thanksgiving. It was great! We actually couldn't all be together on Thanksgiving day, so we enjoyed dinner with our son, Bob, daughters, Laura and Susy, and their families plus Laura's in-laws. Then, on Friday night, we had pie (More than we could eat! The Saturday after T-day, Alice and Penny (Laura's twins) turned three, so, we also had cake with our pie — to celebrate. Mom died on Oct 25 and the ...

The Life and Times of Travis, Laura, Sophia, Holly, Lucy, Alice, and Penny Chabo. Sunday, June 12, 2011. It's not brain surgery.oh, wait. It's been a few months so, let me catch you up on the things we've learned lately. In April we went to NC over an extended Easter weekend where we learned that candy is delicious. And that taking a family picture is really hard. We also discovered that Alice and Aunt Bea look more like twins then Alice and Penny. And that Grandma and Papa make an adorable couple. We fo...

It is worth it!: March 2011
http://crenshawimages.blogspot.com/2011_03_01_archive.html
It's not always easy. but it is worth it! Tuesday, March 8, 2011. It's been way too long! Sorry for taking so long to update my blog. I have been neglecting both. Of my loyal readers. *laughs*. I've been busy at work. Getting better at InDesign and Illustrator. I am very comfortable with my Photoshop skills, so not much improvement there. Can anyone spot the Monk cameo? Here is the final version of the NPR sheet. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). My Family and Friend's blogs. The Ballad of the McKeons.
