Home


This is now the truth for us.  Home is where we park it.  We left Mesa, Arizona Tuesday, May 12th.  First night we slept in Page, AZ.  Arrived at Precious Husband's brother George's home in Ogden, Utah Wednesday.  

We arrived here in Ogden and put the turtle planter filled with peppermint and geranium with bright red flowers out next to the steps.  Coffee made and sun tea brewing in the sunshine.  We are home.  Today we are living in Ogden, Utah.  Next week? Not too sure.

The Baby Quilt


Some more family history for my kids.  I have had this baby quilt hung on my wall for many years.  It was actually my quilt and my mother told me years ago that my father's grandmother made it for me.  That would have been my great-grandmother.  It is various colors of blue.  Was she hoping for a boy?  Did they designate blue for boys and pink for girls back in the day?  Don't know the answers but it was my baby quilt.  


In this picture you can see the damage in the corner of the quilt.  It is torn because my little sister used it to wrap her cat, Bonnie in.  No respect at all, right?


I guess I am just glad it made the journey through the years with me.  It is a simple quilt and yet must have taken lots of time and patience to produce. 


Now I have to find a new home for it as we continue to lessen our possessions.  

Love and Hugs,
Mèmére
