Lovely afternoon spent with family and friends!

Today Jenny, my youngest daughter was hosting the knitting group at her house. She did a great job at making food for us. She made cucumber sandwiches, deviled eggs, pasta salad, chips and dip and lemon cupcakes with little red poppies on the top. Everything was so good! There were 8 of us all together and we knitted, chatted, played with Owen and just plain enjoyed being with each other. Megan, my oldest daughter joined us too! It was really good to see her. She was making her Spring wreath for her front door while we knitted away. She found the wreath on pinterest.com. It is made out of eyelash yarn that is bright green and there are little daisies on it. It looks really cute!!

Here is what the wreath looks like (photo via pinterest.com)




My friend, Julie rode up to Jenny's with me and after we left Jenny's we rode by my new neighborhood and saw where we will be building our new house. She really liked it alot.

After I got home, I cooked John and I some dinner and then I packed up all my Christmas dishes in the Dining Room cupboard and all of John's grandmother's china. That was no small fete let me tell you!

We will be moving into an apartment until October when our house will be complete. We need to be out of here by 5/1! YIKES, I better get sorting and packing!!

Hope you are all having a wonderful weekend!

  6. It sounds like a wonderful day. When you moved into your current home last year, did you unpack everything? Or did you know you would be moving again and leave some things in boxes?
    Hugs,
