Yesterday was a long day. I was up at 4:30 AM Saskatoon time (translates to 2:30 AM my time) and didn’t get back home until the 4:30 PM ferry (my time). I had a long wait in the Edmonton airport but it gave me a chance to finish up the hand stitching I had taken on my trip.

Although I didn’t have a chance to see either Will or Alex on the ice, we had a few games of bowling and baseball before hitting the indoor zip line!

Deloise and Stacia hosted a wonderful Open House; I saw lots of McKnight cousins, nieces and nephews. I spent a couple of nights there so there was lots of “sister” time. We’ll be together at the end of May next year when they come out to Vancouver for Quilt Canada. I heard talk of them getting Houston projects finished so they could buy from the Canadian vendors – I’m glad I haven’t made any such commitments!

Kathryn was off the entire time I was there, but she works every weekend in December. While I was with them they set up their Christmas tree. She has some of the same ornaments as I have but it was fun to see the new ones she has collected.

Will’s big job was to find the fireplace channel on the TV. We were disappointed that we were too early for Christmas music.

It was a great trip and the weather was really nice. I never once had to wear either my toque or my mitts.
