"I love shopping for men's clothing"

I went to church this morning and Alex came.
Some lovely sights met my eyes when I walked in the door.
There were about 7 of them. They were exciting, moving, running, smiling, jumping, and limbering up for the service. It was Dave, Mary, Peter, Julia, Katherine, Susanna, and Timothy Quayle!
They came home from Germany to visit for almost 2 weeks. I told Mary Quayle a long time ago that she should have lots of children because they are so beautiful. Perhaps.......I value beauty more highly than I should. But not only are they beautiful, they have inherited Mary's gentleness and her soft and quiet spirit. I love Mary. She is quite a wonderful person.

The children are loving and unafraid of being kind to strangers. It was super that they remembered who I was...or a couple of them, and the rest just followed suit by letting me hold them and hug them and love them. The girls had on little skirts and blouses that looked very old German. Does that make sense? Well, it doesn't matter much, because no one reads this blog. Not yet at least.
Church was lovely.

I need to go. I am drafting patterns for the menswear in my collection. I design clothing. I am a senior in apparel design, and it has taken over my life this semester. I love it, enjoy it, but miss the sleep. much love and sincerity - kw

Sincerely



I went to a show tonight at the barn and I was really excited. It has been a crazy week (once again) with school. I did not go to bed two nights out of this week, and I continue to be sick with something, I can't figure it out. So tonight, was a beautiful change. I was excited to see the new "no name Palkovitz" band, since they all are practically palkovitz (what is the plural for that name?) and very talented people indeed. They played a couple songs, and I enjoyed them! I am looking forward to hearing more.

But something else exciting happened. This band called Bradley Hathaway played, and I sincerely loved them. Just this week, I was complaining about how there are few Christian bands that play the music that I love to listen to. Those are either too contemporary, too normal, and just plain ol' cookie cutter bands. Because of that, I listen to mostly secular. Which I don't think there's anything wrong with....but you'd think more people who honor the Lord would play music! I don't find a lot of creativity. So perhaps I should look harder, but tonight, I wasn't expecting it, and I found one! I got to talk to the guys in the band and tell them this, and that I really appreciated their music. They are from Arkansas, Utah, and Oregon, and they just all met together 2 weeks ago to play for the first time.
They didn't sound like they had only played together for two weeks. Oh man, they are good.
A smart little photo of sweet tea. I love the drink. It's my favorite of all time.

Oh happy day

Dear Reader,
I like this color. It reminds me of the ocean. This is my second attempt at becoming a blogger.
I hope it works! My name is Kate Weber, I am not sure if blogspot shows that in my profile....or if I have a real profile. I asked Nat Weber to show me how this works.
She knows everything useful. And she encompasses the coolness I know in the world.
well, here I go - I'll save another post for another rainy day.
sincerely,
kw
