Well, we didn’t spend the whole weekend in Iowa, but we did have a nice visit with our son Stephen and his family. We went to a school carnival on Friday night. Lots of standing around. Glad I had my camera with me. Hope you enjoy this photo album.

It was easy to get photos of Emma. It was a bit harder to get photos of her brothers.

I really like the effect I accidentally achieved when Emma walked in front of me with her balloon flower.

I spent more than an hour outside again today, but I’m still not making much of an impact on my hen bit. It is growing faster than I can get it pulled out! I want to get some pansies to set out this week.
I finished the little tooth fairy pillow this afternoon. It turned out very cute! I’ll post a picture tomorrow. Tonight I started working on a personalized banner for Cole for his birthday. I like the way it is turning out, too. First I made 6 triangles. Now I’m adding his name. Should be able to finish it tomorrow. And I found my zippers that I knew I had somewhere. I want to make another satin bag with ruffles. I think I can do them like I did the pleats on the other little satin clutch, only horizontally instead of vertically.
Aren’t grandchildren the best!…and what a cutie…and I know from experience…”boys” are just a bit different!……with two sons and 1 grandson…Thank goodness I have the drama with the two granddaughters…I now see both worlds…
Grandchildren are the best! I used to take pictures all the time, but they are getting old enough that they either won’t sit still or they want to be silly.
