So what have you been up to???

I've done a bit of stitching - did this on Saturday night & Sunday a.m. & gave it to my dad with his other gifts for Father's Day... I think it's pretty cute.  It's Pine Mtn's "My Dad" in case anyone is interested.  I added the JABC Buttons to it.  I'm also still stitching on the Prairie Schooler for the friendship RR I'm doing with Nicole, Karen & Faye.  HOPE to finish it this week, wish me luck!

I stopped at my parent's this afternoon on the way home from the pool for more veggies from the garden & look what my mom bought for me this a.m.!  Isn't it pretty?  I've always wanted a "crystal basket", but never bought one.  This one is large & heavy too - so pretty! She found this at the thrift shop for $3.  WHAT A DEAL!!! 

And speaking of the pool - this is where we've been spending some time lately.   We're "pool sitting" until D&L return from CT in August.  Peaceful isn't it?  They have a lovely home & yard, and the pool is fantastic, even though it's HOT!   The water temp this afternoon was 92, unreal that it's only June.  It's almost like a warm bath until you get out in the HOT sun and get back in, then it's "almost cool" - ALMOST.  ;-) 

And after I laid the camera down & got in, Ray picked it up..... ;-)  I was taking pics just after he finished cleaning it.  This was before my sister & niece arrived & filled it up with floats & toys... ;-)  We had a great afternoon though!  

Thanks for stopping by - have a great rest of the week & HAPPY STITCHING!
