Another weekend flew by way too quickly.
Third strawberry was picked from our garden. This one is for the girly.
She took it into her fort and away from brothers, for "safe eating."
This brother tends to the garden each day.
This Saturday he led his team to victory in the state annual Great Computer Challenge.
Then he climbed a tree. Congratulations my sweet boy.
On the crafty front, just two long seed stitch rows from finishing my shrug.
See you back here soon with some crafty stuff. It's been five whole days since I've seen my sewing machine... but first I need to spend some time cleaning up around here. Have a wonderful Monday!
seems so early for strawberries! sounds like a good weekend. enjoy your week : )

How sweet that she took her little strawberry off to a safe place to enjoy. I used to do the same thing with my raspberries -- before the kiddos could inhale them (or try to make their famous raspberry-water juice special), I would make sure I got to enjoy a few berries.
And congrats to your boy -- that sounds like a real brainy competition. I love scientifically-inclined kiddos (such potential for greatness!).
Have a happy week -- Jodi

Your girly has the right idea. I girl needs a place to eat her strawberries in peace. My strawberries have a ways to go yet, so I might have just enough time to construct a strawberry-eating-fort of my own. :D
Pretty shrug! To me, any seed stitch row is a looooong row.

Those pictures of your girlie and her strawberry are just precious. Little Man and I just planted two strawberry seedlings, and we can't wait for the harvest.
Congratulations to you son! Winning a competition is such a terrific feeling.

A sweet place to enjoy a first strawberry. So cute.
How neat that your son won his competition. Sounds like it was a lot of fun.
Happy Monday Larissa!

Looks like the weekend had something for everyone. I just dusted off the sewing machine today and started working on a couple projects. Now, I'm off upstairs to relax and knit a bit.

Not exactly a bumper crop - LOL But, as they say, it's the quality not the quantity :)
I'm thinking about knitting a shrug this Summer too! Looking forward to seeing yours :)
