We're back from vacation a little later than planned. We were having such a nice time, and then Todd caught West Nile Virus (I'm not kidding) and we decided to stay an extra week so he could recover and so we could avoid the worst part of the heat wave. I wouldn't mind spending every summer hanging out at a lake, especially when it's 100 degrees in NYC!
So here's what we did while we were away:
lounged
tried new recipes (and ate too much)
made new friends
swam
looked at art
gardened (or at least watered the flowers)
and, of course, made things.
We had lots of fun, and it's good to be home. It's time to break out the sewing machine and get busy again!
Oh oh those little toes!! SO gorgeous!

ReplyDeleteIs this Grand Rapids? We live in GR now and just moved back here after a year of living in Brooklyn under Prospect Park. We were a family of 8 living in a 2 bd 1 bath apartment. 5 daughters under 15yrs. We miss NY but are thankful to be back home. Love reading your blog- like a visit back to NY.
ReplyDeleteDing, ding ding! You win a prize! We spent most of our vacation in Cadillac, but Todd grew up in GR, and we both went to school at Calvin. You must have recognized the Calder sculpture.
