Anyone guess who Uncle Tom's favorite team is? We know it certainly isn't the Yankees! The Sox are fully represented here! Our wish too is speed! We are sure you will be tossing Avery up in the air before we know it! Thank you Uncle Tom!
Ethan, Matt & Katie Elliott's son, picked his own choo choo fabric because he loves trains. We really like the quote on Ethan's page- we're sure Avery will dance in the rain (and everywhere else!). Thank You Ethan!
Thank you Matt, Katie, & Ethan for the wish for Avery! Katie's love of cats and Matt's love of baseball are obvious on the page (we love the ladybug wings on the cats!)
Wish #52 is from Gary's mom, Judy Newton. Mom's love of gardening, painting, and family are all very evident on her page, as is her "job" of being the "Cake Lady". We can't wait for her to make Avery's first birthday cake!
Wish #51 is from Gary's dad, Ron Newton. Dad's love of street rods and cruise-in's fills the page. If you look close, the '32 Ford roadster Dad built even has a little Avery sitting in it! Thanks. Dad, and I'm sure we will all enjoy the ride!
Thank you Shauna and John for the wish for Avery. What a great quote!
Shauna and John are both artists, so we're wondering which one of them drew the picture on Avery's wish... Doesn't really matter who, because we absolutely love it! We're sure Avery will too!
We can't wait for you to meet your great-granddaughter! From the cardinals to the sewing machine, to the garden- it surely is a snapshot of you! Thank you for the wish and we're sure Avery will have fun with Bitty Baby!
We can't wait take Avery all over the state- from the Adirondacks to the Big Apple, and beyond! Thank you Doug, Heidi, Emily, and Ned for the thoughtful wish for Avery! We absolutely love it!
Emily was one of Alli's dancers over the years. We love that Avery will be gaining a supportive and ever-growing dance family. We feel we are the lucky ones! Thank you Emily!
We weren't surprised Tom picked something with John Deere on it, and Liz's material looks very country! Very fitting indeed! Thank you for the beautiful wish for Avery! We can't wait for you to meet her!
Thank you to the Gamets for the beautiful wish for Avery! We can't wait to tell Avery the story behind the fabric you chose and how we all worked together on the musicals over the years. Hopefully Avery will have a love for the stage as well!
Dave- UPS brown, Lynne- green, Hayley- pink, Lauren- soccer. Yup. That's a good snapshot of their family! Each piece has come from an article of their clothing and tells a story- very much like the Chinese tradition! Thank you guys! We love it!
We're sure Avery will love music as she grows up. Maybe she'll even play the piano like her mom! She will definitely dance! Thank you Sara and John for the wish for Avery!
We really like the quilt paper Jamie chose. There is a lot more hidden in the page that meets the eye! We're sure Avery's first day of school will be here before we know it! Thank you Jamie!
We were glad to see Uncle Larry have a fishing theme for his fabric- always the avid fisherman! Aunt Cathy's was also very fitting with the birds! Thank you for the beautiful wishes for Avery!
It is so neat that Michele used her scrub top from her missionary trip to Honduras for her square- great idea- very much like the traditional Chinese way to contribute material for the quilt! We love it! Thank you!
We had a feeling Greeta's wish would be Victorian themed before we even saw it, knowing Greeta's love for all things Victorian! Thank You for the wish for Avery and for the awesome turtle cake! It brings back memories... :-)
Dan & Kami also helped us during our Paper Chase by being one of our references. Thank you for the wish and for the Mother Goose book. We can't wait to read it to Avery! Thank you guys!
Wish from Sarah Crimmins and her son Ethan. Great quote from RENT! Thanks for the wishes and for the two books for Avery. We're sure they will be read to her often!
We know Aunt Cathy loves to grow sunflowers in her garden every summer, so it was nice to see them incorporated into Avery's wish. We're sure Avery will love them as well! Thank you!
It was neat to come home from Cape Cod and see a wish for Avery with the ocean, sailboats, whales, and lighthouses considering that we saw all of those things while in Cape Cod! Thank you!
Butterflies!! We had a feeling Avery's wish would have butterflies in it since we know Phyllis likes butterflies! We have also had an abundance of them in the backyard this year. They have already brought us joy and happiness. Thank you!
Thank you for the homemade square! It was neat to see one that was two pieces of material sewn together to create the 8x8 piece and Avery's wish directly on the square. This was the first square we've gotten like that! Very cool!
