Pretty runner Pam!

My son came home yesterday!!! Well, not quite to the house yet, but returned from 8 mos at sea yesterday to San Diego. We went down to greet him then took him up to where his grand parents live. We hung out for the day, went out for lunch and dinner. We then drove home and he had to go back to San Diego, He had to check in and collect his personal items. He should be home late this evening for a couple of weeks of leave.
I am so relieved to have him back in the states!!!

I know it was a bitter sweet homecoming for his squadron because of the loss of 2 of their pilots.
I have the quilt tops done for the 4 children of the 2 that were lost. The backing fabric just arrived on Tuesday. I hope to have the quilts done for the memorial service on the 17th of January.

I'm sure that this month will end up a gain as well. With Christmas, and my son coming home and all the cooking I will be doing for him......
