Thursday (11/7) was our veteran’s luncheon at Scrap Happy
Quilters.
We had over 20 guests (mostly
veterans, but a few wives attended as well), and everyone seemed to have a good
time:
We had all of our QoV quilts laid out on 2 tables:
And we had decorated the room with our own quilts:
There was lots of food:
and after
lunch we had our presentation of quilts:

Jackie Bayne was our guest speaker….he was declared dead and in a body
bag TWICE during his service in Vietnam, and twice someone noticed movement in
the bag and got him out…what an incredible story.

I was home at 2 PM so that Michael could take
the car to his second golf lesson. He is
really enjoying this new set of lessons…the guy has a totally different
approach and Michael thinks it is really helping his game.
The weather was beautiful and I spent the
rest of the afternoon sitting on the lanair, enjoying the day.
Paula picked me up close to dinnertime and we
headed to Loree’s house. I had left my
bread and butter behind at the church, and she was kind enough to pick it up
and take it on home. That gave Paula a
chance to see all of the beautiful quilts that Loree has in her home…we had a
nice but short visit before heading back to Sun City.
My honey got home from his golf dinner around
7 PM and we just vegged for the rest of the evening.
The veterans all look happy to be honored. Well worth all the time and effort!!!
