BLOWING IN THE WIND

I am so enjoying these wonderful summer days....having three teenage boys off school and home for the summer is busy, interesting and, needless to say, a bit challenging!!!!

One of our favorite places on earth is my parent's cabin at North Barriere Lake. 

 My family has had this little cabin on the lake since I was a young girl and my parents spend hours keeping it up and running for all us kids to use at our leisure....we can't ever thank them enough for having created such a special place for us!!!  

My boys keep busy there most of the summer dirt biking, kayaking, sailing, tubing/skiing/wakeboarding, EATING, etc, and much to our surprise and awe my parents built a basketball court for them this spring (this despite my dad undergoing ongoing treatment for prostate cancer!!!!)

When we go up to the lake I always load the car with as many crafts as I possibly can and have great fun creating and taking pictures.  This was a project I did while I was there this past week....the apron is made from an old pillowcase I found at the thrift store....I have always loved old 'yo-yo' quilts and have wanted to try making some of these yo-yos...it was so easy to do!!

Hope all my blogging friends are enjoying these wonderful summer days!!
