I am in Love...

Can't wait to see if I can find this magazine at a store close to me.

A Beautiful Morning...

It's been a beautiful morning so far. I got to sleep in, have some french vanilla coffee and read a little. Errands will come in a little bit and then maybe a treat - lunch out and a movie...

The evening sky full of lovely pink clouds a few nights ago... (one blessing from the smog we have)

The book I am reading now... (almost done - it's really good)

Slowly, buy surely, my ripple blanket is coming along... (using my Nana's crochet hook)

Busy Time of Year...

Wow... It's been very busy around here. But, I wanted to share with you a few things...


Momma dove had two babies. They are both gone now. But, she is back on the nest again. Maybe there will be two more soon...
I love the way my embroidery turned out. It was a gift for a special little girl...

 My tomatoes keep growing. The flowers...
 ...and tomatoes are beautiful...
 ...and so red.
There has been an addition to Grandpa's pond...
And, I am currently reading this book. It's very good...

Summer Time...

Well, summer is here... 

It has been much warmer this past week with temperatures in the mid to high 90's. But, even with the high temperatures during the day, it's still cooling down nicely in the evening.

I'm really enjoying my sunday and hope you are too. I went out to check on the tomatoes and was happy to get a few more cherry and grape tomatoes off the plants. My little miniature roses are looking pretty today as well.

If you have ever looked at my photography blog, you will know we have a dove that nests on top of our spot lights in the back yard. Well, she is back. A little later than last year though. But, I'm sure I will be seeing a baby very soon.

I am also working on new embroidery project. I put aside my ripple blanket to make something very special.

Enjoy your day!
