Beading!

Now that I am done with baby blankets....I can try and pick up my beading! I had started...if you can call an inch...of a Dimensional Spiral Herringbone. So, I picked it up...unfortunately, I needed the help of reading glasses...sigh!




Then, FB hit. I saw a post from Joanie at the Bead Asylum...and I had to stop by and try my needle at a Russian Spiral. I have been wanting to learn this stitch for sometime. I think it is coming around nicely...I just hope I finish my Herringbone Spiral!

Catch up!

Life has been busy...since my last post, Jordan played in the San Jose Ninja Basketball tournament. He and his 8th grade teammates took Championships. It was a great tournament!



Kris Watanabe and I finished the tourney program and all went well...for the most part. A few bumps, but we learned a lot and might be ready for next year! 167 pages of blood, sweat, tears and Digger's breakfasts!


Spring break was a whirlwind! We went to Las Vegas with the Shen's and the Maruyama's. As a friend put it...they went on the Minamide Gastronomical Tour! Buldogi's, Island Sushi and Grill, steaks and Shakes, Baby Stacks and more!



Neil also went and returned from 6th grade science camp. It was the climax to a rough few months of fundraising. Luckily we have a wonderful group of parents who pulled through with the fundraising and chaperoning!
