Congratulations to my Mom Susie (from @the_quiltshop_at_essenhaus) on her 2nd place for Hand Quilted Small Pieced at the Elkhart County Quilt Fiber Expo! ❤️🧵🪡

A fun outing to the Elkhart County Quilt & Fiber Expo! I did some knitting with Katy from @yarnadventuretruck for #wwkipday, and some of her lovely wool came home with me. Also checked out the exhibits and took some photos of my favorite quilts. There were only a few knitted pieces, but there was a lovely Starmore jacket! I also spent some time checking out a genuine 19th century woven corset and geeking out over historical undergarment manufacturing. 🧶🧵🪡 @wwkipday

Because a boy’s first ever visit to Cracker Barrel needs to be commemorated. 🇺🇸

“Beaver Nuggets” from Buc-ees? Surprisingly good! 👍

GOT IT. The thief took my bank cards, cash, my hat, and my sunglasses 🤬, but left everything else including my wallet, passports, drivers license, house keys and rental car keys, Moomin scarf, and Gudetama. 😍 Everything is damp because the criminal – who evidently hit like 8 other cars! – dumped it in a drainage ditch. But the passports should be usable once they dry out, and all in all the financial impact is pretty minimal. 🥲 PARK RANGERS ARE THE BEST.

Kentucky backroads and bourbon tasting…

Dollywood. It’s *almost* like my vacation isn’t ruined! 😬

MORE SPACE CAMP!!!! 🚀🧑‍🚀❤️

SPACE CAMP!! 🚀🧑‍🚀

Four states, 500+ miles, one thunderstorm ⛈️, and a detour because Dad wanted to see the giant Buc-ees gas station. 😂 NEXT STOP SPACE CAMP 🚀 🧑‍🚀
