Obama visit to Quincy



Obama 'visited' Quincy this week. Here are a couple pictures Keith got. The Riot police were Keith's favorite part, but luckily they were only there for a short time and weren't really needed. I also got to see him drive down Maine Street. My boss let us us go watch him and his motorcade. I don't think they stayed under the 30 mph speed limit... I tried to get some video but my phone was being stupid. My boss, Jodie, was able to get some on her phone. Here's a link, I hope it works. (click on it)

JT's Vest

Here are some pictures of a vest I made J.T. and gave it to him for his birthday. Isn't it cute? Hopefully he'll like the FOUR pockets that are on it. He should be able to fit a car in each of them! I also put on orange tags since his favorite color is orange.

Here's the front:


Here's the back:


Here's a close-up shot of the zipper pocket.


Patriotic Wall Hanging

Here's a kit mom gave me for a wall-hanging. Glenda and Mom sewed it together, but I did the quilting and binding around the edges. I even handstitched the binding to the back so it looks neat. That was a lot of work, but since it was a small project, it wasn't too bad.
