Grandma Day

My mom has always been so good about having Grandma Days with her
grandchildren. A trip up the tram at Sundance, or a fun day bowling,
or little sewing projects. We were THRILLED when she brought, or
mailed rather, Grandma Day to us. She sent Sam and Hyrum the
supplies for these darling Valentine's pennants.

Sam did such a great job sewing. At one point I had to come upstairs
and help the littles. A few minutes later Sam joined me. I asked him
if he was done. And then I noticed he was a little pale. He looked
horrified. He went on to tell me that the sewing machine was trying
to kill him and he was just sure his finger was going to get caught
and the machine would drag his whole body in for "death by sew
machine." It was hilarious, and more than a smidge sincere.

I joined him for the last few triangles and the biased tape. By the
end of our "sewing machine therapy" he was back on good terms with the
machine and was confident that he could control the foot pedal.

Sam, Hy, and Warner really love to sew. The other day we made
sleeping bags for their stuffed animals. The pennant however is a
project that the whole family will enjoy.
