Weekend Wanderings!


I hope everyone had a wonderful weekend, mothers day can be bittersweet for so many of us. My son and family came over on Saturday, and of course we cooked for them. He doesn't quite get the concept of the holiday, haha. They did bring me some flowers to plant in my garden, so that was nice, and of course spending time with the boys, is always fun.


We spent the day shopping and had no luck and since we had some free time in the afternoon, we took a trip to the beach. The tide was almost in, but we still found some treasures on the beach.


On Sunday we went back, one more time. Camping starts next week, so the park will be open, but you have to pay to get in, so I doubt we will be back, until the fall. It was cloudy and cooler, but a great day for searching, since we hit the tide as it was going out.


Of course Bean loves it when we go to the beach. It is his favorite place and he can go off leash if there are no people around. He is fine with other dogs, but he wants to jump on everyone he sees and not everyone he sees, wants to be jumped on. He spends his time staring at us, until we throw a rock, then he pushes it across the beach, until he hits the water. Then he is back, until we throw another. He is easily amused.

Today was cleaning and catch up, a little bit of sewing on the baby quilt. Hopefully I will find time to get my canvases ready for painting and maybe some beach art.

My mother had hydrangeas growing along side of the house. I tried growing a couple in South Carolina when we lived there. They never did any good.

What a lovely colour of hydrangea, I hope it stays that colour for you. You are such a good mom to cook for them!

Bean is so full of beans and so well named, he cracks me up with the action shots you share.

Good haul from your beach combing Debbie, have fun creating something special with them.

LOVE your hydrangea.
I don't imagine my son would ever cook for me...lol! Hey, he stopped over and gave me a card and gift so I'm one happy mother, as he calls me :)

Your hydrangeas are lovely - its too hot to grow them here - maybe when we build our fernery. It always amuses me that when grown up children come 'home' they are just children still.... haha...
