Margene and Jordan came out for a visit, and we packed a lot of sight-seeing in very few days. They got in late Friday at Sac (home by 1:00 a.m.) and Saturday was "the falls loop".  We went to Lower and Middle McCloud Falls, Burney Falls and Subway Cave (after lunch in Mt. Shasta at the origianl Yaks).  I wanted to add a walk around Manzanita Lake at Lassen Park, but we ran out of time.  (The Big Event garage sale was the same day, and Leona and Lorraine used my house for a jewelry sale and garage sale - we spent too much time chatting with them to make it to the lake, but it was time well spent.)

 

Monday was Allison's birthday - 28!!  As usual, I'm always surprised at how old my kids are....I don't know how time goes so fast.  I bakes 12 dozed mini-cupcakes to take to Alli's day program, and she seemed to be having a good time.  The Supervisor sent me some pictures of her giggling....

 

I posted this in my family group chat, and neither of my brothers either 1) laughed at me or 2) offered my $100.00...so sad!

 

I have baby zucchini!!

The quilt top is finished!  I ordered the backing fabric for it, so it will be a couple of weeks before I have it ready to sandwich and quilt.  I think it turned out great!!

I spent most of Saturday morning upgrading the chicken pen for the babies.  I set up a pop-up tent and created a separate pen for them (babies and adults don't mix well.  They need to be big enough to defend themselves from the older chickens before they are turned out together.) They've gotten so they look like chickens now - not quite so "scruffy teenagers".

They seemed to like sunbathing in the dirt.So cute cuddled up together....
