I am not the eloquent blogger most aspire to be and don't really even try. I mostly settle at the transfer of information, the easiest form being a list; thus, in easy form, here is my accomplishments of the last 4 weeks.
01. Endured the 10 day flu.
02. Stayed out of the way for a week while the new gas furnace was installed in our rental house by 2 friendly men from El Salvador.
03. Learned a few new Spanish words.
04. Cleaned and vaccumed for a week after the furnace was installed.
05. Started a new part time job as the "office manager" at my brother's NAPA store, only working while my children are sleeping or my husband is home.
06. Finished sewing 4 beautiful quilts for the 4 beautiful Nielson children.
07. Left to do, a trip to the post office to send them to Alaska, post pictures for you all, and start the whole process over with the 3 remaining quilts!
Oh the joy of living life, seriously, all but the flu has been joyful.

Welcome!
For more info about the threads of love project and details about how you can contribute link to my first post http://quilt4nie.blogspot.com/2008/09/welcome-welcome-what-please-donate-4.html
Many suggestions have been made to make quilts for the Chief, Stephanie, and Christian as well. I would be happy to sew more quilts with any extra fabric I receive. If you would like to contribute to their quilts I am also going to start a collection for each of them. Thank you for supporting the Nielsons through threads of love!

Who Am I?
I am a stay at home mom to my beautiful daughters and rowdy son. I am blessed to share the LDS faith with Nie. I am married to my own "Mr. Nielson," who is equally as wonderful and handsome. I have enjoyed life more because of Nie. As soon as I read about her, I was inspired. I read her blog for the first time after the accident and have thought of her everyday since. She has inspired me to be better in everyway and taught me how to find the joy in life. Because of her amazing example, I more fully recognize my blessings and I am learning to love the moment. I hope this small gesture can repay her in a small way.

Anyone who has the flu for 10 days and still sews quilts is cool. Sorry you've been sick.
