Home Sweet Home

We're back from a rain filled vacation. I think it rained at least part of every day we were away. It was nice and relaxing though. We had friends stay with us, had good food, did a lil yarn shopping at Knit One, Needlepoint Too and just generally enjoyed each others company. As much as I enjoy spending time at our country house, I sure am happy to be home.
Surprisingly, I didn't do a lot of knitting. I made a Dublin Beanie for Glenn and I'm working on a surprise for Meg in New Mexico so I can't put up pictures yet. But I can show you this


Glenn was going out to the store and I asked him to get me a surprise. I didn't expect this lovely bouquet though! I asked what's the occasion and he said "Just because I love you" All together now....awwwwww. Wasn't that sweet of him? By "surprise" I meant a candy bar or a NYC newspaper. This was truly a surprise!
Going to call Al today and hopefully get out to get some knitting done this week. If the weather holds up, and with my luck it probably won't, we'll do some knitting in the park. If not, we'll figure something out I'm sure.

When are you going to spill the beans about my surprise, I know you can't keep a secret!

What a great guy, btw.

Love the lily!

Yeah, every once in a while we run into a male of the species that gives us hope (of course we know that has a great deal to do with our training them, but hey, they have to learn the lessons, don't they!)

Look like we both have some nice guys.

Beautiful flowers. It is nice to hear a good story like yours.

Just got back myself from traveling. Did not get as much knitting done as I thought I would.

Am working on getting my next podcast out today.

Have a great day.

Sorry for all the rain on your vacation. But wow! What a great husband! (which is how it should be given the great wife he has!)
