New Year Weekend 2012

This year was all family.  Jacki and Tim came down for the week.  Then Tony showed up early Christmas Eve.  He is looking to move to MO, so I am just enjoying him home for the time being.
We did get some small projects done, and just spent some quality family time.  Jacki and I all of her grading caught up, and recorded. 
We also gave the guys a shopping list for her next school project.  Combination lab – a light box with 4 switches and a tester button.  The whole family got involved.  However I did not get a pic of the final project.

  

While I got some sewing done Jacki helped me sort STRINGS.  I had 3 buckets of strings.  I needed neutral, red and purple strings so Jacki decide to sort the lot.

I love the result, but now I have 5 piles of strings and a box for “everything else”.  I think Jamestown Landing is next!

    

I can not wait till we are all close together.  These family days are just too far apart for my liking.
