Owls

So what is the word on owls all of a sudden? I see them everywhere. Little chachkeys, trinkets and jewelry.  I had to jump on that band wagon so I created this not so little pendant.  Next time I will stamp Whoo? at the bottom. Or is it hoo? Hoo knew? Anywho....I am cracking myself up. Here is a picture of the little guy.

July in Key West

So my little vacation is almost over. I had a wonderful time but I wish we could have spent more time on the boat. The weather was beautiful but very windy.  Got a lot of wedding things done but some are still pending. I decorated the buckets that the flower girls will be carrying, made the bathroom basket and met with someone for the rehearsal dinner. (still undecided) I also took pictures for the table numbers. No this isn't one of them...

This weekend

Friday morning Summer and Jeff leave for Jeff's brothers wedding in the Bahamas. That means Ray and I have the 3 little darlings until Monday night. What to do all weekend is the question. Friday is Lucy's 7th birthday, we need to celebrate early because I am showing/selling my necklaces at the local yarn shop. Here is what Pam (the owner) sent out in an email:
And, we are most excited to unveil Naughty and Nice Knitting Necklaces by Susan Hall (nailedinny in Ravelry).  These sassy handcrafted necklaces have sterling charms with a naughty or nice knitting message -- such as 'Purl Girl', or Pam's customized charm of 'yarn-love' and many more.  Each silver charm is on a stretchy black cord (which can also be wrapped around your wrist and worn as a bracelet) and is hugged in place by two sterling silver beads.  These make terrific gifts for your knitting friends, and the charm can also be added to your favorite charm bracelet.  Susan will offer a $40 special price for her yarn-love friends (regular price $45).  Susan will be at yarn-love at 7 pm on Friday, and is also happy to customize a charm with your own knitting message.

I am so very excited. Lucy is going to be my little helper.  After Friday we have no plans. This can't be good.

Babs is coming for a visit Monday. We are taking a class at a nursery to make a bird bath. Should be a lot of fun. She is here until Thurs and so are Ray and I. Then it is off to Florida for 10 days to visit the older darlings, recover from the little darlings and firm up wedding plans.
