Memorial Day Tradition

We spent an enjoyable LONG Memorial Day Weekend at the Frio River in southwest Texas. We go every year with the local kids and grandkids. This year Tommy and I drove down on Thursday and were able to spend most of Friday at a very quiet river. The kids arrived late Friday afternoon and the rest of the weekend was spent playing in the water, playing with the kids, staying up late drinking and talking and TUBING!! I was the only one that made two tube trips. We have to take turns because of the little kids, but I went both Saturday and Sunday. We drove home on Monday and headed back to work on Tuesday. Here are some pictures from the weekend.

Time for catch up

It's been a while since I last posted. I had good intentions on keeping up with this blog, but time gets in my way!

I just finished a quilt for a friend of Meredith's. The friend had bought fabric, planning on doing her own quilt, but never got around to it. So I did!


We are starting to have some pretty flowers around the yard. I just love this hanging basket -- I believe the plant is called a Fuschia. So bright and colorful! I think it likes our back yard.
