Hot Summer Days

It amazes me how quickly time passes.  My best intentions to blog regularly somehow fall by the wayside through the activities of everyday life.  What have I been doing?  Well, I can assure you that I have not been idle!  In fact, I have been so busy with projects that I have not even taken time to photograph my creations or even special events.  Well, almost too busy.  Here is a pic of David, Robin and I at the Fearrington House Inn where we went to celebrate my 57th birthday. 

It was a beautiful evening and the meal was top-notch!  David is so good to me!

Crochet is my new passion.  Robin was telling me how Dr. Bob Jones III takes one topic a year and learns everything he can about it.  I thought that was a really cool thing to do to keep my mind and body sharp as I grow older.  Some of my past goals, such as regular exercise have become my lifestyle, so now I can branch out and add new interests to my ever expanding list.  This year it is CROCHET.  Have you ever Googled a topic, given your email to a site and then been bombarded with emails about the subject?  I now receive about four emails a day from different crochet websites.  Once I get my fill I will have to unsubscribe :)

One of my greatest joys this summer has been watching my 22-year old daughter start to spread her creative wings.  I always knew she had an eye for color and texture, but only recently has she started to attempt her own projects.  She is currently exploring the "refashion" rage.  I must say that I am very impressed with her diligence and expertise.  Visit her blog to see what she has been doing http://robinelin.blogspot.com/

That's enough for now.  I hope to have some pics of my recent projects to share by tomorrow!  Have a great and godly day!
