We recently had family members come to visit. If you remember, back in a previous blog, we attended the wedding of the century when my husband’s nephew got married for the first time at age 41. We got not only a lovely Shoshone niece, but her four beautiful children. They are a delight to spend time with and this trip was no exception.

One morning, my husband got up to find the 2 1/2 year old playing at my design wall from a basket that she found which had pre-cut shapes. She was trying to imitate the block designs from the quilt that I was working on. Rather than disturb her, Guy grabbed me so I could enjoy the scene. She went on, undaunted, and then wanted me to hold her pieces for her. What a serendipitous moment!

Here are a few of the pictures that Guy captured:
