Busy Weekend

Before I forget, Nancy at Victorian Motto Sampler Shoppe has a lovely give away of Christmas Floss!
If you are looking for a good read, I highly recommend this one.  
First time British Author.  
Parallel story lines that converge at the end.  
Now I'm reading Fear by Bob Woodward.  
I have a feeling this will be interesting.  
I got it from my sister who also recommends a book called Black Money.  
  
My sister, my daughter and her boyfriend were here for my Aunt's birthday party.
It was great getting together with family for something besides a funeral.  
It was a wonderful party and the food was great!
Its always great when you don't have to cook.

Took Autumn at Hawk Run again.  
I have six more spots to finish.
I'm not sure how long I will work on it.  
It is a really big piece and lots of stitches.  

Before the party yesterday, we went to the cemetery to visit the graves.  
On the way home, we stopped at the yarn store and I picked up some yarn.  
Not exactly sure what I'm going to make out of it but, it spoke to me.  
I really need to finish a pair of socks.  
I'm at the heel, so really in the home stretch.  
Just have to buckle down.....LOL
Its always great to have company but, I was ready to see everyone leave and get back to normal...
Katy, don't take it personal. 
I think the dogs are really happy that things are quiet.  

Hope you had a great weekend!
Have a stupendous week!
Keep on Stitching
Monica

  1. Very pretty yarn and thanks for the book suggestion. It sounds like your family gathering was lots of fun. I think that no matter how much you love people, life always feels good when it gets back to normal.
