Gwinn Spring Break

During Kentucky Schools' spring break Grandma and Grandpa Gwinn came to visit for a long weekend. We put them right to work!!! :-) Grandma hemmed some curtains she made for Eli's nursery in Durham, back in 2008. She made them custom; unfortunately, when we moved to Lake Norman they were too custom.... and they never went up. Now they are valances and look great! My dad and I also put in a fence in the back yard.

It wasn't all work though, we took a wagon ride and played with toys too! My mom also brought me a masterpiece......

Grandpa and Emmett.

New valances.

We literally just took these pics....
if you look you will see Emmett sleeping in his crib :-)

The fence nearing completion. Eli did not go for a bike ride, his helmet and the football are in the same crate in the garage and when he sees one he has to have the other :-)

The other end of the fence. Emmett's "old man hair" looks really cute in the wind and sun!

COMPLETE!!!

Walking on the top of Morrow Mountain.

Looking out into the park, Lake Tillery and Montgomery County.

It was Emmett's nap time so we left him in the car seat. Alas sleep did not come!

Another view from the top.

The masterpiece!!! This is a t-shirt quilt my mom made from my 'They Might Be Giants' shirts!! Most were bought at concerts in NYC. One was literally bought off of the back of a bartender, one is a special new years edition, one was signed in central park and all were well loved!!! There is one non-TMBG shirt and that is the "excelente" in the middle top. I got that shirt for having one of the highest Spanish averages in either 7th or 8th grade, and wore it on most of my Boy Scout camping trips.
