I got a day away today to sew with my quilting friends. I left the house at 8:30 and didn't return home until 3:45. I got quite a bit accomplished, too, and had a good time chatting with all my quilting friends. James stayed home most of the day with the kids, but then had to take them all to a birthday party in the afternoon. Quite an accomplishment for him, since he hates crowds and especially hates going into social situations where he doesn't know anyone. But the party was a great success, and the kids got their faces painted. Austin chose not to have his done, but of course Gretchen and Daniel did.
