Summer's Almost Gone!


Summers where we live are short and this year we had an especially short one. Here are some things I managed to do this summer:
My husband and I took two of our grandkids to the nature park to feed the ducks. The ducks weren't at all shy. When they saw us coming with food they started waddling in our direction! By the time we crossed the parking lot to the lawn the ducks and geese were ready and waiting!

I played with my grandkids. One of Chaylee's favorite things is playing with playdough. Here she is making ropes. Allan refuses to call them snakes since he is not fond of snakes. He was bit by a diamondback rattlesnake. Lillee is waiting with a book. Being read to is one of her favorite things.











I made 30 Christmas stockings for soldiers in the armed forces. My friend Louise was working on the project with the women's club and I volunteered to help her out.







I made this dress for Chaylee for her third birthday. I had enough fabric leftover to make Lillee a matching one. (It's a Pink Fig pattern.)
