Quilt Bee Countdown!

16 Days until the 14th Annual Thornton Thimblers Quilt Bee, so I decided to do my favorite 16 things about the quilt be...in no rank order:
  1. Being the youngest person in the room.
  2. Laughing so hard my tummy hurts.
  3. Getting to know my aunts, cousins, and mother in a special way.
  4. Making a quilt (of course).
  5. Reading stories--oh, my! Still have to WRITE mine!
  6. Playing all kinds of games.
  7. Making BANANA jokes whenever possible.
  8. Fantasizing about that greased down hunk named Ted.
  9. Going shopping.
  10. Remembering about quilt bees past.
  11. Eating all that yummy food--usually packaged in a "themed" meal (Irish breakfast, English tea, Chinese restaurant)
  12. Getting away from the real world for 3 days.
  13. Sitting on Auntie J's deck and looking at the view (though this isn't true for ALL bees).
  14. That glass of wine before dinner.
  15. Making Auntie J laugh until she cries.
  16. WINNING THE QUILT!

Can't believe I have my story written and you don't. Better get with it girl. Bees are lots of fun because we can be ourselves without men around making us think we have to act adult. We can be kids around. It is great to be the youngest also so enjoy it. Mom

Made a mistake in writing... should have said haven't instead of don't. Didn't prof it first.

I like all your favorite reasons, except of course, #7 and #15!

It'll be great having you there again this year. We sure missed you last year. Hope we can ALL be at your house for the 15th.
