Last Sunday, Nicole and I met Marty and Sally for brunch about halfway between where each of of us spent the 4th. They greeted us with the wonderful news that they are expecting a baby! ! I have already spent a few hours cruising through patterns for blankets, sweaters, toys, hats and booties to find the absolute cutest items to make for my grandbaby #2. I have some great yarn with yellow, aqua, beige and white which will be good for a few of the smallest items-- or maybe a little sacque. I am calling him/her "Mario" for now though "Arnie" was in close contention. Here is a VIP pix of the little family.
Also receiving VIP status for being fabulous weekend hosts are Rick, Glenda, Nick, and Brook. We saw a parade, a concert, a humungous fireworks display, rode the boat, went
swimming, and ate like kings. The weather was perfect for 4 days straight. (How do you think they arranged that?) Here is a fishy picture of Nick and Brook with my daughter, Nicole. Knitting is coming well and I am nearing completion on the "watermelon" baby sweater, and the "chain link" sweater for Nicole. Pictures should appear soon. I am approaching my working weekend so life will be reduced to work and sleep for a few days.
Hope you are all enjoying summer, warm weather and happy times. Love to all. Noanie/Grandma
