Vacation!

Clay and I are vacating this week. We've had a wonderful weekend filled with a nice dinner Friday night, a really fun street fair Saturday, and shopping and Fantasy Football drafts today. (You can probably figure out who did the shopping and who did the FF Draft.)

Tomorrow, though, we are embarking on our newest adventure. We'll be heading out tomorrow morning REALLY early (like before 10!) for Chicago. We're planning on hitting the aquarium, some sort of fancy schmancy art museum, dining lots, and more. I'll give more details upon our return.

Speaking of the return, next Saturday we're hosting a Labor Day party. Our parties are known to have between 30 and 75 attendees, so the planning stages are already in progress for that matter. I do LOVE a good party! I get to get out all of my fun serving pieces and fill them up with all of my favorite finger foods, then share it all with tons of friends. I can't think of many things more fun than that. I'm even going to get out fun tablecloths. Pretty tables always make the food taste better.

Speaking of pretty kitchen-y things, I finished my second tea towel embroidery! Holy cow, Lori Crouch Cundiff has completed not ONE project, but TWO. Even I don't know what to think of that. I do believe I'll go and start a third one right now. Just because I can!

Hope all of your summers have been as packed as ours, and may your falls be full of festivals and deliciousness and colors and allll of those fun things that make fall, well...fall.

Hi Lori and Clay,
Greetings from Cody WY. This is the first time I have had a chance to send a comment or even see your blog since my last comment. Sounds like you have a big Labor Day planed. So glad you think it is fun. Sounds like a lot of work to me but also pretty. Will be anxious for vacation pictures and of party deco also. When you get more dish towels you have made than you know what to do with you might share. Keep up the good work. I'm proud of you. Hugs to you and Clay. Can't wait to see you.
