Where did June go?

And for that matter, much of July! If you read a few posts back, my netbook is broken and I finally got everything on it backed up so it can get sent in for repairs. The computer in the studio is very difficult to upload pics onto so… there you go.

We spent much of June, reorganizing and preparing for the next school year, working on our farm and going on outings. Oh the carefree days of summer!

Sometimes the most important thing to do on a farm is get some rest. It does not happen often but there is nothing better than an unplanned nap with a cute little kid.


We had the opportunity to get a visit from my little brother, Uncle Marvin. Uncle Marvin is always lots of fun and pretty good with those little things that need to get done like programming things and household repairs.

I was invited to spend the night at the D’s house along with Alexandra, Nicholas and of course Olivia. I was pampered with rest, wonderful food and 5 star hospitality. I have acquired a new hobby while there, quilting. I have made quilts in the past but seeing Monique’s beautiful quilts has revived my interest. Another thing we got from this visit was a new way to serve our chili… over crushed fritos. Hey, if you are gonna be bad, do it good! Here is the view from the lake at the D’s house

Laptop notebook blues

In case you were wondering where I have been… I have been baking cakes, working on projects and working here at Moss Flower.  The reason I have not shared any of my activities… my new notebook is not turning on.  I feel like I am trapped inside my broken notebook.  All my crochet patterns which I have designed are in it (months and months of work), pictures of cakes for clients, pictures of my beautiful kids and especially the pictures of Olivia’s birth.  Before I can send it in they told me to get someone to do a back-up- eeekkkk!!!!

I do have another computer in the house but it is in my loft which takes me away from the kids and life and so I have had no time to post anything.  Say a little prayer for my laptop blues to get resolved. (I wonder if there is a patron saint of computers : )
