July has been flying past. We had a fun family gathering on the fourth. Our small town does the holiday up in a big way with a parade, a talent show, a 5k race and lots of activities for the kids in between. We just went to see the parade then headed home for a cookout.
Then next up was my birthday.
David and Lauren bought me a cute project pouch from etsy, and wind chimes for the front porch. Joe and Holly bought me a bottle of my favorite fragrance. Then Mike found a Vera Bradley bag and matching wallet. So, I felt very spoiled and lucky to have such a sweet family.
I have been stitching away on my current project! I've told myself at the end of the month I need to set this aside and do the wedding piece!!
I have a new fun accessory to use...
A music stand! It holds my chart so nicely and it's easy to pick up and move to wherever I am going to be sitting. We refurbished four of these for use at the library during our summer reading program. (we had a music theme). I claimed one of them after the end of the program. It's been great to use.
Otherwise I have been keeping busy at work and finding some time to spend with Addy. I can't resist sharing a recent picture...
This was taken at Holly's house a week or two ago. You can see where their cat managed to be included in the picture. But she is smiling a lot now and makes baby noises when you talk to her...
I hope you're keeping cool and finding plenty of time for stitching!!
