FINALLY!!

There is a sun!


After an ETERNITY of rainy days here in RI, we finally got a taste of summer. On Saturday, the sun shined through and gave us an absolutely gorgeous day. So what do my peeps and I decide to do???




You know it!

There is no keeping the three of us from the sandy shores. After all, we do live in the Ocean State! The waves were perfect but the water was cold as it usually is this time of year. That didn't keep Crazy One and Crazy Two from spending the entire day boogie boarding and body surfing. It was awesome!

And just in time, too. These guys have been out of school for over a week now and have been stuck in the house ever since! Can someone point me in the direction of the nearest liquor store, please?? I definitely could have used a bottle of wine, that's for sure. Alas, we struggled through. A coffee date with my girl Elyse, a trip to see UP in 3D and a lot of sewing kept me somewhat sane.

I'm now in the process of finishing up the last 36 of the first 100 robes for the breast cancer foundation. A bit boring but... that's OK. I also got another little job stitching up a banner made up of "blocks" signed by families of cancer victims/survivors which will now go to hang in the oncology ward of a local hospital. Hooray for being paid to sew!!

And finally, I quilted up this little goodie as a gift for my hubby's cousin who recently got married. It's a log cabin from Alex Anderson's book, Neutral Essentials.

I guess I had beach on the brain! Hopefully, it remind Bobby and Jody of the beach too since they are WAAAAY out there in CO where they have no beach.

GASP!! Don't even say it!!
