Rob's birthday weekend

Rob has been accustom his whole life to his birthday being blown way out of proportion--in a good way. The whole McKenzie clan comes into Butler to celebrate for the weekend. This year it was postponed secondary to Huntsville children being sick. So, his celebration turned into a week-long ordeal...needless to say, he did not have a problem with this. He also has my side of the family now to spoil him rotten as well. They love him to pieces.

So, the Butler weekend did and will always consist of crafts, sewing and cooking. I learned how to knit this weekend and did two hats for Tabory and Mary McKenzie.

I wish I had taken a picture of the table. It consisted of three sewing machines and the girls coloring Easter eggs--can't be prepared too soon Suzi. My main project this weekend was to finish the blocks on a quilt that I am currently working on. These are a preview of a few of them..

Other BIG NEWS, Boots III, our nephew, killed his first deer. Not just any deer, an 8-point!! He was elated to say the least. I am not sure honestly who was more excited--Boots III, Boots Jr. (dad), or Rob. Rob was still giddy when he went to bed.


We finished the weekend with lunch at the fish camp--always a favorite of the McKenzies! It was a great weekend spent with great friends and family. Happy birthday love of my life!
