let the summer begin
the first official day of summer vacation.
i feel like a kid again!
today, in about ten minutes, i'm heading to michigan to begin a week long visit with my daughter, her hubby and my 7 month old grandson. can't think of a better way to spend my first week of summer vacation.
we plan to spend some time in the sand at lake michigan. do some shopping for the little one and cook, eat, take walks, go to the park, relax, take a few pottery classes and just do whatever we feel like!
on another note, saturday had a fun day with "the girlfriends". we did a chicago field trip. had "high tea" in bucktown and then did shopping at some of the little shops in that area. came home with some fun finds.
sunday, yesterday was a very relaxing day at home. and we had a rain storm that caused the electric to go out for 5 hours...so that meant lots of knitting time. friday i had finished my firey belero. turned out great. now just looking for a time to wear it. i am now making one of the staff shruggs from interweave knits. i have 3 more inches to finish on the back then will be on to the sleeves. i'm uses knitpicks yarns. this is the first time i have used their yarns, very nice i must say.
my project for this blog, when i return next week, is to figure out how to add pictures.
see you next week!!!
