A Little Downtime...

We decided to take a weekend road trip with some friends to Pennsylvania over the weekend. We were able to visit family and check out some beautiful scenery. It was a nice break from our tiring routine back at home. I had a memory card malfunction and lost a lot of pictures from our trip but still managed to get a few off the card before it broke.

Somewhere in the north east region of the state we found this wonderful field of wildflowers. I would love to go back one day. It was so remarkably beautiful at twilight that it felt like a dream. The kids and I were able to walk around and play for a while before it became too dark.


There was a beautiful lake where we stayed. Victor and Ella loved watching the people fishing. I wish I could show you the great shots I got but I guess no technology is fail proof. I did manage to move over one picture of the lake at sunset though.

We're planning another trip with our friends before the end of Summer and I'll be sure to take a few memory cards and lots of photos next time.


We're still working on the apartment almost everyday and hoping to be finished and settled in by September. It has been taking forever but we've been building it from scratch by my Mother's so that I can help her out with the house. Being almost ready for paint, I'm so grateful to her and my mother-in-law for all of the babysitting.

On another note, I've been finishing up many patterns. Everything from dishcloths to baby dresses, I'm losing some sleep. I need to photograph the Wedding and Fruit sets tomorrow and start designing the PDF files. By Saturday I should have one of them up. I'm also currently working on a charity pattern for a Lupus foundation. One of my best girlfriends suffers from this disease and we're working together to create something special for the cause.
