Back From Vacation

Actually I have been back for a week, but I am just now getting back to a normal routine! You know the drill, unpack, do the laundry, get things put away, clean the house, do the grocery shopping, etc.  And I went one day to my bird club meeting, and another to visit a friend and have lunch. So I am just now getting back to doing a little sewing.

I finished two of the little round place mats that look like pizzas, did some embroidering on a sun bonnet sue block, and cut out some 8 1/2 inch squares to give to my neighbor as part of her birthday present.

When shopping I bought some Irish print material that I will make a quilt with, and some heavier material in blue with some cars on it that I will make a bag for my almost 3 year old to carry his cars in.

Florida was great, mostly warm weather, and we got to spend time with the kids. Went to the state fair, a Mardi Gras parade, dinners out, and went to St. Augustine which was fun. Took time to get near the water and get some bird photos. Also went to see hubby's nephew and one of his brothers. I guess we accomplished quite a bit in 2 weeks.

Although I haven't done much posting I have tried to keep up on reading all of your blogs.

  2. I have never seen a live Pelican, but they certainly are distinctive, aren't they. Hope you had a wonderful time in Florida!
