Off to the Water Again

We spent the day getting sunkissed again.  Caleb did some water skiing and Kristen joined in for a swim in the middle of the lake.  The idea of alligators gave her much pause!!!  I forgot the camera today-I couldn't believe my error....

Caleb and Kristen were kind enough to pose by the boat in the yard after our trip!

We just said goodbye to the kids and I have laundry going so Bill and I can pack an overnight bag so we can head to Cocoa Beach tomorrow!  This social life sure has been hectic lately.

Here is a new bloom on our bromeliad.  They are making a slow recovery from last winter's many frosts.


And here are the finished socks after their refreshing dye bath!  (Jacquard, pink )  I will send them right out in the mail, Marsel!

  1. Sometimes I think it's good to forget your camera, & live more fully in the moment.

    those socks look so warm & cozy. Do you need them in Florida?

  2. The socks look great after their dyebath. I love that color (same color as before the bath, but now with the heel matching, right?)

    A day on a boat in the sun sounds great, but the alligators, not so much!

  3. What a great time you all are having on the boat. Looks like Bill made a good choice.

    I think you should take Marsel and I out water skiing. We could finally find out who is the clumsiest of us two.

    The socks came out perfectly, very nice.

    My feet are eagerly anticipating their new socks...!

  5. I seems odd to read about someone going water skiing in October. Gee, we are hoping to get into the 50's today! :)

    Sounds like you had tons of fun and those pink sock look great!!

SOME MORE BABY HATS

I added to the baby hat pile and even changed up the pattern with the finer yarn.  The one on the far left is really a pink;  I worked on it...
