Seth and Janette moved to Fayetteville

I helped with my little granddaughter yesterday while Seth and Janette directed the movers.  It was a sad day for me,  they are moving 1  1/2 hours away.  It will be different now that they have to plan a big trip to come and see us.  I definitely want to move into a different house, so that we can have a guest room.

I finally got the quilting bug again, I started making crooked log cabin blocks and couldn't stop.  Now visions of the finished quilt keep going around and around in my head, I think I am going to make a quilt based on the song Alan Jackson sings, "Tall Tall Trees."  I have wanted to make a quilt about that song for years.  It has so many good images in the lyrics:

Tall Tall Trees
(Roger Mill & George Jones)

Well, If you wanna drive a big limousine
I'll buy the longest one you've ever seen
I'll buy you tall, tall trees, and all the waters in the seas
'Cause I'm a fool, fool, fool for you.

Well, If you wanna own a great big mansion
well, I'll give it my utmost attention
I'll buy you tall, tall trees, and all the waters in the seas
'Cause I'm a fool, fool, fool for you.

Yes I'm a fool, over you
(It may take a while, but I'll prove it's true)

Well, if it's lovin' you want, I've got it
And if it's money you want, I'll get it
I'll buy you tall, tall trees, and all the waters in the seas
'Cause I'm a fool, fool, fool for you.

--- Instrumental

Well, If you wanna take a trip across the ocean
Yes, we'll travel anywhere you take a notion
I'll buy you tall, tall trees, and all the waters in the seas
'Cause I'm a fool, fool, fool for you.

Now, if you wanna own a great big mansion
If I give it my utmost attention
I'll buy you tall, tall trees, and all the waters in the seas
'Cause I'm a fool, fool, fool for you.

Yes, I'm a fool, over you
(It may take a while, but I'll prove it's true.)

Well, if it's lovin' you want, I've got it
And If it's money you want, then, I'll get it
I'll buy you tall, tall trees and all the waters in the seas
'Cause I'm a fool, fool, fool for you.

--- Instrumental ---

Yes, I'm a fool, over you
(It may take a while, but I'll prove it's true.)

Well, if it's lovin' you want, I've got it
And If it's money you want, then, I'll get it
I'll buy you tall, tall trees and all the waters in the seas
'Cause I'm a fool, fool, fool for you...
