I can't believe how proud I am of my family!
Micah entered his screenplay into a very prestigious screenwriting fellowship organized by
the Academy Awards.
6,304 screenplays were submitted from around the world
340 made the first cut
114 made the second cut
only 10 made the final cut
He was notified yesterday that he was a finalist!
While it is a huge honor to be in the top 10, only the top 5 will actually receive the Fellowship. Not only does it include recognition in the entertainment industry but, more importantly, $30,000!
Keep your fingers crossed that he will receive a Fellowship - we should know in about 3 weeks!
Another amazing family update:
My new nephew was born on July 24, 2010
Fisher Andrew Cook
He, of course, gets a homemade quilt with ducks, frogs, turtles and dragonflies...
This was my first time doing a meandering stitch...holy moley! Not easy!
and a homemade Corduroy Fish
Our other nephew, Logan, turned 4 this week!
I 'borrowed' this idea from two of the most handsome superheroes that I know:
Myles & Eli
This was my first time working with satin. One word: YIKES!
Yep...that little star on the inside is to cover up a tiny hole! It ended up looking great!
We even had a wonderful visit from Keith & Karen!
I wonder how long it will take to get Skip & Dar out here!
