Big Finish!!

I finished my model last night!!! It looks fantastic...sorry I can't post a picture yet...but maybe someday. I did start my HAED project...of the 40 pages I have the first row going down on page 1 complete...all 970 stitches!!! Not much I know..but it is more than I started with!! LOL!!!

I started my Mystic Stitch project today. I didn't get much accomplished so far only 100 stitches....this one has alot more color changes in it. I was really tired today so I didn't stitch much.

Mom came over this evening and we went for a walk then to Sonic for an evening pickme up!!! I have to start moving things into my new room tomorrow!! YUCK!!!

Go Yankee's

Mark and I went and watched the Yankee's play this week. We drove up to Kansas City for the Royals/Yankee game. We had a fabulous time and I got a wonderful picture of Derek Jeter. What a cutie!!!!

W hung out together....went to the movies and saw Harry Potter. It was a great time together.

He has been on vactation this week so most of his time has been spent on the golf course. Which is fine by me. His dad came in town for a big golf tournament the club is hosting...so they are in that and currently not doing so well!! LOL!!

Camp Week

What a week!!! I spent all week in classes at the Coop learning how to be a mentor to new teachers. It was very informative and I actually enjoyed being at this workshop.

On Saturday, I went to Camp Stitch 2007 at my LNS- The Busy Needle! OH MY!! We had so much fun. I met Debbie Draper and took a class from her. Mary from Ozark Samplers was there and she taught a class using different fibers, large count cloth and a new finishing technique. We got lots of goodies in our goodie bags and I did a lot of shopping. I had over $60.00 in GC to use so I used them up...I think I spent a total of $3.15 and recieved tons of charts!

Not much stitching to show off...this week I worked on Eeyore and my model, but there are no photos of those. I am showing off Dog Wisdom and Tea and Cookies. I did have a small finish but I can't show that yet because I have to mail it to the person first...then I can show it off!

What a day!!!

Today was definitely the 13th!!!! I had a huge scare today! Brigen and Tusk got out of the yard today and went on a little adventure! OH MY!! I was crying and driving around like a madwoman looing for them...After driving around for about 30 minutes, I came home just to look in the yard...there they were...sitting on the front porch waiting for me. They were tired, wet and thirsty. My husband was happy they did this because now we know they will come home if they get out. I couldn't calm all day....I finally stopped shaking this evening.

I did some stitching today..but I wound up having to ripout most of what I stitched. I guess my mind wasn't really on it!!! I am showing the update of my tiger ....I worked on it for 4 days this week.

That's it for now...I am off to watch Most Haunted on TLC.

Gorgeous Sunset

Yep...I actually had to go to work today. It was very tiring. Actually, I had a workshop this morning that I had to be at from 8:00 am until 11:00...My alarm didn't go off so Mark woke me up at 7:10...so I only had 20 minutes to get ready. Luckily it was a workshop so I didn't have to look my VERY best!!! LOL!!!

Isn't this a beautiful sunset? I took this last Thursday night when the sun was beautiful shade of purple!!!

I worked on Eeyore and my Tiger piece today...I really love my tiger piece!!!! I would love to finish it and hang in my classroom. Off to stitch on Tiger some more!!!
