365 for January 15-23

As I am anticipating my school load to increase I have been getting some sewing done. This is a quilt I started a month ago thanks to an online tutorial. I am thinking of making 21 of these Dresden circles for a queen size quilt.

The contrast is fantastic.

There are several b-days in January. Every year we celebrate in some way with the Paine-Amerlan clan. This year we went bowling and then to dinner as a group. It was fun to see the family. Aidan the youngest addition to the family is growing up fast. He is 13 months and full of energy.

This is the lake just a block away from our house. Many birds hang-out here before taking flight again. Every time we do a creek walk we pass by this lake and every time it looks so different to me.
