Summertime in the South

As always winter was harsh, spring flew by and now HOT summer is upon us.  Not that I'm complaining as summer is my favorite season - just wish the humidity would let up so being outside would be more enjoyable.  Something about all this sunshine brings smiles to people's faces and folks seem nicer.

After my wonderful spring show I'm taking some time off from my jewelry corner to concentrate on the garden (YES, it's actually producing), cleaning out closets of everything not used in the past year, taking mini vacations (just returned from a week in FL.) and of course visiting with family.  Our favorite times are visiting the grandkids in Williamsburg and on a rare occasions them visiting us.  Seems we sit around all winter doing nothing and BAM...summer is here and things get rather busy - not complaining.  This weekend my hubby's parents are visiting and the next weekend my son is bringing my grandson, Riley, to experience his first car race at the South Boston Speedway.  July 4th weekend we will be in New Bern, NC - one of my favorite places to visit.  I also LOVE hearing about my granddaughter, Lexie, and her Warhill soccer team!!

Not to say that my mind isn't working overtime thinking of new things to make.  As I see something I like, an object or certain beads I will file the info away for the fall.........then it will be time to start on the Holiday Season and hopefully a show or two.

The pictures are of me and Emma picking strawberries, Us in FL. and then my 3 favorite people.

I still have a great inventory of Little Jewel Hookers so if you need a special gift send me an email.

This summer take time to stop and marvel at all the greenery and beauty.
