September 18th dear diary we celebrated Mine and Susie's sweet 16 today with an amazing old fashioned tea party, held at a real English tea shop. Her big gift is as it has been the last 3 years Paris fashion week tickets. My big gift is a very special rocking chair that has been around since the time of my 5 times great grandmother it was made by her father when she turned 16. This is a tradition that has been in my family since then as its a very special chair. This is only the 3rd time new runners were made. The only new things about it are the cushions.
The cushions are made with a Disney Eeyore material I had selected several weeks earlier from a catalog when mom being sneaky asked which of 4 materials I liked. She recently put me in charge of fabric selections in our character shop. I love this special job I also teach 4 kids and 2 teen sewing classes and 4 private lessons.

We are driving up to the northeastern states and then down through Florida. I will write in 2 weeks.

While we were gone Jake text Zack he needs our help he is a planing a very special dinner party which will end with his proposing to Sam on her 17th birthday. We of course said yes we are willing to help. I talked to Clara she has offered to cater the event with help from Phil And Kate. I am working on a very special wedding ring quilt top where the ring will be sitting.
It will be on display in the room he reserved at a local hotel. He will be showing her memories of their relationship ending with my blanket which will have the ring box that Zack is carving in the center. The rest of the gang will also help in various ways, Susie with help from Chuckie is designing a dress for her to wear.
