For the Love of Trees

I have a sweet on-line friend named Michealanne, her blog is Memories of Home. We've never met but I know if we did, we would be life time best friends. We have so much in common. Michealanne sent me the cutest cross stitch pattern in the mail a few weeks ago... called "And a Forest Grew" by Karen Kluba at Rosewood Manor.

I love all the trees, birds and critters all over this pattern. This weekend we went camping in West Va. We camped at Seneca Rock...  photo DSC_3284_zpsf953bc63.jpg And did some exploring at Dolly Sods..  photo CSC_3399_zpsa739fd2b.jpg It is so beautiful there. I told my husband if his job ever transferred him to West Va, I'd pack the house that day!  photo DSC_3407_zps321eafbf.jpg We camped in the woods, which I love. It was pretty cool to be stitching trees while camping in the trees..  photo CSC_3491_zps5ebcf9b9.jpg Thank you Michealanne for the pattern. It's going to take me forever and a day to finish it, but I am enjoying every single stitch!!

What's up!

Life has been busy. I think it's even been a whole month since I posted last. Not as much time to stitch as I would like. I am in school full time for the Summer.  I do take my stitching breaks though... it's my therapy.

I finished the 'Reindeer Stables' last month, but didn't post it. oops. No time to iron for a cute picture. ~~ My daughter graduated from high school...  photo CSC_3073_zpsdbd81076.jpg I love this picture of her turning her tassel. ~~~ We've been having some crazy thunderstorms....  photo DSC_2994_zpscbfed843.jpg But I do love a good thunderstorm. ~~ Got to run... happy stitching!
