The
Latest on the Message Board
05/30/01
As
many of you have noticed, the message board is still down. We are trying
desperately hard to get the new symbol system up and running. These symbols
will really help us all get to know one another even better (as they will
link to our bio pages). We will keep you posted on our progress. We realize
that this downtime is an inconvenience for everyone, so as not to string
this one out, we're setting a deadline for ourselves. The board will
be back up and running just in time for Motivation Friday, with or
without the symbols!! And as and added "Thank You" for your
patience, we have a surprise in store for ya... We can discuss it more
in length on the message board, but in a nutshell, we are going to graphically
theme every day of the week on the MB. Meaning... on Motivation Friday,
there will be a big "Happy Motivation Friday" graphic at the
top and bottom of the message board. So what about the other days of the
week??? Quilty joke Tuesday, Quilt Trivia Monday (?) .. this is where
you come in. We need themes for every day of the week! I'll be gone most
of the day Friday, but if you could all discuss and brainstorm amongst
yourselves, I'll check in Friday evening and we can decide on an official
schedule. In the meantime, you can email me any ideas you might have and
I'll get a list going!! Think think THINK ;) -Matt

Our
photos are back from Alaska! Besides quilting our hearts out at sea, my
family and I got to see majestic whales tossing and twisting in the ocean
and climb on glaciers ...How cool is that? As for next years cruise with
Quilt Celebration... Mark your calendars for October 19 - 26th, 2002. We
will be heading off to the Mexican Riviera ...I'll post information when
details are available :0). 
Congratulations
to Webmaster Matt in joining the class of 2001 at the esteemed University
of Santa Barbara, California. Graduation is a time to be proud of all the
things you did in school... well maybe not ALL the things. ;0) Hip Hip Hooray
for Matt!
YEHAW!!!!
It's time for the Livermore Rodeo... and guess who was this years team number
one Green Horn at the rodeo's pre-event mixer? Yup, it was me! OK, we didn't
win, but we didn't come in last place either... 7th place to be exact (out
of twenty). Our penning time was 1 min 6 seconds, and the winners were at
38 seconds! And you guys thought I could only quilt... actually maybe I
should stick to my day job! LOL!
"Webmaster
Matt thinks that by making up stories, he can cover for his rather ODD
behavior at Alex's party." 
...
and friends who are practically family. This last weekend Alex put on
quite a graduation party for her daughter, Adair... great food, great
company, and GREAT entertainment!!! Alex even hired a hypnotist to perform
and interact with the crowd. I couldn't BELIEVE the things he had Alex
doing!... first she thought she was a dancing chicken, then a melting
ice cube (don't ask, you had to be there =) ... we were all rolling on
the ground in laughter! My favorite part was when she was hypnotized to
remember NONE of the experience, even that the hypnotist was at the party
in the first place!
