I've been home for a week!
Tomorrow's a holiday, Happy Canada Day my Canadian peeps!
I told them I'd be in to work if it was raining. It's not.
I want to finish the yard work I started yesterday after the rain, and get my gazebo up!
We had to change Firepit Friday to tonight, as I did Happy Hour at the Old Folks Home Friday night!
I'm cooking hamburgers, making a salad, and I made pies yesterday.
I'm running to town for some fireworks too!
This will be a ton of pictures, and not a crafty thing in sight, so I'll tell you what I've been up to and you can skip the pics!
I went to pick up my mom & we went to the Amish Auction Sale in Rexford, Montana.
Mom & I went to see Duane Steele.
We went to Crawford Bay. A friend from waaaaay back & her husband bought property there, and are setting up an RV park.
We hung out in Bonner's Ferry, and Ponderay in Idaho.
We learned how to play Pickle Ball.
Had lots of laughs, and a great time............I need a vacation from my vacation!
Some pictures from the sale.
Sheds & log cabins
Squirrell feeders
Stuff
Gazebo we all liked
I bought one of these, when it gets settled in it's spot I'll show you
Here it is plugged in at mom's garage.
It has a solar light on top
Cute planters
I wandered into the quilt barn and this one went for $100.00
Cool table, look at its legs
I think we were parked in their pasture!
Turkey family playing in traffic
My nephew showing off in moms yard
Then he couldn't get down
In Creston
That's a lot of Mary Kay!
Since I've been home............
I made a Dr. Suess cake!
Not intentionally......
The happy recipient
See, I straightened it out with Cool Whip!
Inside
The weather........
On the right side of 0 degrees!
We hung out a Family Rebellion on Rays side.
The women on the left & middle are 2 of Rays sisters
Too much beer & heat, need a nap on the golf cart
Shouldn't have let him nap,
got our butts kicked at horse shoes!
It's all been fun & games!
Not sure when I'll get to make anything!
I've also been painting the firepit furniture.
I got all the chairs done, just have 2 picnic tables left!
Better go,
gotta get my work done before it gets really hot!
Hope you're all well!
Talk to ya later!
Ta ta for now!

Can't believe that beautiful quilt went for $100! That's ridiculous! Good to see how much you enjoy summer - keep the crafting for rainy and cold days... that's what I keep telling myself... not that the weather was the problem here but anyhow! Off to a vacation tomorrow, FINALLY. You'll hear more towards mid-July :-)
Hi Gail thanks for the update your always seen to have plenty to do and the photos are great thanks for sharing them and l'll be looking forward to a card when you manage to make one.............take care x
Awe the Amish Auction.....on my bucket list. My niece and her hubby went this year, as they do every year. (insert raspberry here to you all lol)
I know, I know, you DID offer to pick me up and for that I thank you. :)
Your pic of the smallest park in Creston turned out so much better than mine from two years ago.
Ok ok so in my defense I got the back porch insulated and dry walled and painted this spring. Got rid of the sidewalk blocks from under the BBQ (and the BBQ goes bye bye this week). A thousand dollar BBQ and only got cooked on half a dozen times so off it goes to the granddaughters as a house warming gift. lol The grass is starting to sprout where once stood the bbq.
Love all the pics from the auction. There is a lot of talent going on there.
