Hello all!!
Been awhile since I've posted. Was down last weekend with a bladder infection + the antibiotic did tunes on my system. Actually overrode my Paxil so I was a bit anxious. :( Not too fun. But now I am FINE!! Back to my old self.
Got lots to share today. First off.....
Hope it's a good one for you all. :) Not sure what we're doing yet. Kevin's been a bit stressed this week due to the jobs he's been working on. Yesterday was a 'bad' day...worse he's had in a really long time. :( Love ya, Sweetie!!
My BFF is still on vacation. Been living through her trip!! They were in NYC all day yesterday. Kept sending me phone pictures. Love it! Someday I'll get there......
Also my other WW buddy is on her vacation with her family to see family. I can't wait for them both to get home!! Miss them dearly!!
My mom, Aunt Martha + niece Maggie are coming to visit next week. :D :D I can't tell you how 'giddy' I am about them being here for my birthday next Thursday. (July 9th for those who didn't know!!) It's been way too long since I've spent my birthday with my mom. Looking so forward to their visit. It's also been lightyears since I've seen my Aunt Martha. It will be great to see her again. And I can't wait to Maggie. To see how much she's grown. She'll be 12 next month. Hard to believe she's growing into a young lady!
Now onto my pictures...
I had some excitement this past week. I went to my local yarn shop...Silver Threads + Golden Needles...on Wednesday (7/1/09) to celebrate the 1st birthday of Virginia + her daughter, Kristen, owning the store. The store has been here on Main Street for 4 years or so but they bought it a year ago.
These cakes were Adorable + Delicious!! They were hand-made and so cute!!
This is the shop with the festivities going on. Lots of people there. Got to touch + enjoy the luscious yarns. There were also sales going on. (Of course I just HAD to buy some new yarn!!)
These are some gorgeous hand-knit garments that are in the window of the shop. Projects that I would love to make.....someday!!
And the BEST NEWS of all from that day....
They had a door prize giveaway at 3:00 that afternoon. You had to be present to win. They gave away 3 different prizes. Of course, I HAD to back at 3:00!! And boy am I glad I did!!
I WON THE GRAND PRIZE!!!!
It was a knitting basket full of over $175 worth of products. The basket was one that I 'covetted' in the shop + am thrilled to have won it! There were 3 skeins of yarn...one is YAK!! and another is cashmere!! (would love to knit Kevin a pair of socks from that!!) To fill the basket there was a bunch of other goodies. Was so blessed to have won!!
I guess I've gone on long enough!!
Thanks for 'listening' to me!!
Have a WONDERFUL 4th of July!!
HUGS TO ALL!!
Nanette :D
