Almost finished...

The weekend was great.

Jammed packed with food, family, friends, fireworks and more.

We had everything around the house decked out for the 4th of July.

It looked FAB!!

I even had all the good ole' patriotic songs going in the back ground.

It was a blast!

I was planning on taking things down at the end of the week, at least in the front yard.

The back is another story.

I'm liking it all way too much to not see it anymore.

I'm thinking it will be up all summer.

Being patriotic isn't just for one day you know.

And being that I'm the one who would be taking things down, I'm leaving it all up.

There's just something grand about those colors swaying in the breezes as you sit out back enjoying the outdoors.

Awesome!!!

On another note, 

I have made real progress the past couple of days on the baby blanket.

It's amazing what one can do when you don't let other things jump ahead on the "to do" list and you just make an effort to complete a big project.

I am now down to just a handful of yarn bobbins.

Compared to the gallon bag I started out with.

Progress.

It's quite a fine feeling.  

Now I just have to figure out how the edge is going to be completed.

There is nothing set in stone really.

Just winging it as I go.  Except for the main part of the blanket.

We'll just have to wait and see what grabs me when I get to the edge part.

The bright colors in the blanket will be used.

That is about all I know for now.

Well, back to getting daily necessities completed so that the blanket can be on step closer to being done.  There will be some outside time for that, before it gets too hot, so that I can enjoy the day lilies with all their gorgeous color.

Why can't they be week lilies?

It would be wonderful to have these little blooms around longer than just one day.

I'm just saying.
