Hangin' in Nebraska

Hey all! It's been a month since I have posted! I am such a bum! :) Well, as the title indicates, Jason and I are hanging out in Nebraska with Jason's sister, Leslie. We have been here for 2 days now and are absolutely loving it. We left Friday night and drove all the way through and got here Saturday morning at 11 - Whew!! We were very happy to FINALLY get here.

Leslie just had a beautiful baby girl and this morning we blessed her: Amelia Elizabeth Marie Terry. She is absolutely beautiful and SO sweet! She is only 6 weeks old and weighs just about nothing! Here's a picture of her:


Isn't she beautiful!  She actually looks a lot like Jason... she's definitely got some McDaniel qualities!  

Well, I am stepping out of my comfort zone again.  Now that I am learning to sew, I figure that I should continue to broaden my horizon... so I am learning how to knit.  I NEVER thought I would learn how to knit!  But, I am working on my first project ever.... one day I will be as good as Leslie at it, (BTW, she is seriously amazing when it comes to sewing.  She made me a pair of socks that are the most comfy EVER!).  We will see how it goes. She showed me the coolest website ever for knitters:  www.ravelry.com.  You should at least check it out - even if you don't knit.

Wednesday we leave for Kansas to see my other sister-in-law, Margie. She also had a baby and I have only seen pictures of her:



Cute, huh!  We are really excited to see her!  One the way to Kansas we are going to be going through Omaha to see the temple and the Visitor's Center where there is a Walter Rane exhibit.  I am pretty stoked about that!

We are having a blast - the vacation have been very needed.  While I learn to knit, Jason has been playing his usual computer games.  I am really glad that he is relaxing - school and work are playing their toll and we are SO excited for him to graduate this August.

Well, that's all for now!  I have got to get back to my knitting!!!  Ha ha!!!

Fun stuff you! I am jealous! Mike and I wanted to do a little vacation or something before Jr. arrives, but when we started thinking about it, it was already too late! Oh well! Enjoy your break and be safe! :)
