photos, birthday, & swap?

Doesn’t it figure that when I feel like writing a bit and blogging I don’t have time:) I meant to write a bit yesterday and the day before, but it was just too busy.

I did get a bit of crafting in finally, but it was nothing too exciting. This has been sitting on my fabric pile for quite awhile half finished…

It’s another grocery tote, if it looks familiar that is because I have made 2 others that look exactly like this. It does feel a bit nice to actually have finished something:) Now I just want to get working on a few projects that I have had in mind for awhile… Maybe tomorrow? :)

Ben’s birthday was today, so he took the day off work to spend it with me. It was quite lovely, since it means we had an extra day to our weekend. If only all weekends could start a day earlier! We spent the afternoon at a park, walking around and taking photos of course…

(Me taking photos if you couldn’t tell…)
So glad I am married to someone who thinks the perfect afternoon is going to the park to take photos and walk around! Lucky for me, he didn’t want a cake! (Does that say something about my cooking ability perhaps :) Happy Birthday, Ben!

On a totally different note… I have an idea that I have been tossing around in my head, but wanted to see if anyone else liked it. I was thinking about hosting a bit of a swap, but wasn’t sure if anyone else would be interested in participating. If that sounds like anything you would be interested in, would you just leave a note to say yes and if there is a bit of interest I will go ahead and organize one. (A few more details - I think it would have a theme and probably one or two guidelines, like at least one handmade item.) Thanks, if there is interest I will probably post more on Monday about it.
