I had a Great Weekend

I had the best weekend ever!
My girls were home,
My oldest daughter only lives 10 miles from us
but my middle daughter lives 2 hours away,
so her and her 3 girls stayed with us
Friday and Saturday night.

Friday night we had wine and
Tastefully Simply Beer Bread
and 4 different dips
(the kids got orange juice & sprite mixed together)
they thought that was great until I ran out.

Saturday I made a big pot of Chili and
a pot of Country Chicken Chowder for 
everyone to enjoy when they got hungry.
The girls took lots of pictures of there kids on the farm.

On to some Stitchy stuff:
Friday I finished a LK that I have been working on for a while.

I stitched it on 32 ct but don't remember the name of it
and used the floss that it called for.
Now I need to decided if I am going to put it in
a frame or make it into a pillow. 

Then I also finished a Christmas ornament
Ornament #2
This is for the Christmas Ornament Challenge that I joined.
This one came from a book called
Leisure Arts - Mini Cross Stitch Ornaments
produced by Kooler Designs Studio
There are 116 designs in this book.
I Finished this little cutie with white felt on the back

And I put a few more stitches in my
Norwegian Biscornu

So there you have it,
A bunch of stitching done
a great weekend with family
what more could a girl ask for!

Happy Stitching

My mother always says it's the best day when her children visit. :) Sounds like you had a wonderful weekend and great food too! I love your Santa with his rosy cheeks, he does look very jolly. Lovely stitching on your ornament and biscornu too.

Good Morning Everyone! I just got back from having coffee with my daughter. This is something I don't normally get to do because she ...
