This afternoon Mama returned from a day of tending to my great aunt Jackie with an armful of family heirloom quilts! I laughed with glee and held the wonderful treasures! Most of them were quilted by my great aunts, mother-in-laws, aunt and are very old! Oh what richness! Bethy here holds the quilts for y'alls preview.-Kressant Posted by Picasa

    Missing y'all much!

    Love, Ivis

    Eating a fare amount of chocolate? OOPS! That will explain the french accent phone calls we've been receiving from the Phonecia. LOL!

    I sincerely hope everyone is OK about the french accent stuff on the boat. It can become very silly and almost irritating! :)
    Arthur Pen Dragon can also impersonate the "gubenor of Calyforna (California):Arnold Swartzenager. LOL

    And you know who else he can impersonate. . . poor guy, he was embarrassed afterwards.

    I do hope they can come home very soon!!

    Love, Ivis

    P.S. It's imperative that I set my bridesmaid's dress sleeves tomorrow! Have y'all found crinolines yet? I'll need a size that could fit Rache or Amanda. . .
