Vacation. Its been great!
I have been visiting family and friends (and their new puppy!) Eating a lot of Mexican food. And, of course, crafting.
We are staying within 5 miles of a yarn boutique, and two major craft and fabric stores. The kids and I have gone to the stores several times already.
We made paracord bracelets (with para-like cord. We had trouble finding paracord but will order some when we get home.)
We also made them in black, but they don't photograph quite as nicely!
I brought my crochet hooks and hooked up a little sweater. It still needs a ribbon that will be woven through the row where the crochet hook sits:
The best parts of shopping was running into Becca from Our Crazy Boys.
I've been reading Becca's blog for a couple years, and every time I come to town I want to meet her, but time always gets away. Imagine my surprise when I saw her in line at the craft store.
I was so excited to hug her neck that i pushed four ladies out of my way to get to her. Then, in my impetuousness I called her Stephanie. Oops! I was just so happy to get the opportunity to say hello!
I'm off to go for a walk this morning. Nothing like walking and getting a tan in October!
Happy Wednesday!

How hard were the bracelets to make?
