Stormy Friday and a giveaway

Welcome to a new week.  I'm certainly hoping this week goes a little bit better .  I'm sure most parents would agree, that they don't want a call from their child's school that their kid is in the principals office for doing something they know they shouldn't have done in the first place.

Friday night was a little exciting at our house.  We had a storm blow up right over our house that had some 'rotation' in the clouds, and well you all know what that means, the tornado sirens go off, hail falls, kids get worked up, and well for me I saw my first funnel cloud with my own eyes.  Thankfully it broke apart and never touched down but I did get some not so great pictures of it, but I do have a good picture of the 'wall cloud'

Ice for your drink anyone?

I did get the quilting done on my Terrain quilt, the binding just needs to be sewn down to finish it off. I might get to that later today, but first I have some cleaning to get done and spots to clean on the carpet.

I did mention a giveaway, well there are 2 that you can sign up for. The first one is by my friend Melissa over at Sew BitterSweet Designs and the second one is by Kira, over at It's Sew Kiki.  They are both having a Fat Quarter Shop sponsored giveaway.

I hope everyone has a wonderful week. I hope you come back tomorrow for 'Test Kitchen Tuesday' where I will share a tried and true recipe with you.
