Such a busy day!!!!!!


Had a very nice busy day.
Its a very windy day here and hoping that we get some rain soon. Dust everywhere. grrr Hate housework but have to do it myself. I hurt my hip last week and need to take it easy to heal.
I will do a deep house clean next week. 


So onto more interesting things.
This amaryllis decided to start opening up this morning. Just love the beauty of flowers.






We went for a nice walk on the beach this morning. Coco just loves to have a nice swim and Lucky just walks along in the shallow water.








Then l just had to do some stitching this afternoon and decided to do this qayg{quilt as you go} block designed by Pattern Poole

Family is the best!!!!

We had a wonderful weekend. Our son and his family surprised us with a visit and wow its so special as we live far apart and being old now don't want to travel that far again. They visited here 4 years ago when we had just moved to Port Alfred. So we had great fun just relaxing and visiting. Sadly the older 2 grandsons were not visiting. But just being able to spend some time with ones family makes us feel so blessed.


 

Thaankful!

Found a very nice fish añd chips shop nearby us.  Its my Birthday month and I started a new small cross stitch patte...
