Day Late Monday Update

Yeah Yeah it's Tuesday but yesterday was a holiday so I'm posting today. You might have noticed in my WIPocalypse post I had a new finish. I started working on my Lizzie Kate May Stamp on Monday last week. I worked on it 4 days and manged to finish it right before leaving for the weekend to our cabin Friday...
The weekend was rainy and our poor campground was just a muddy mess. So no real work was able to get done but it didn't stop us from having fun and enjoying time together as family. We got a new antenna for our TV and it made a HUGE difference. Now we can finally enjoy some TV instead of hoping it works here and there. Monday after we were home we heard tornadoes warnings. There were 3 warnings right near where our cabin is located. One tornado hit just a few miles away and destroyed 2 houses. So scary. Dad went over to check on everything and other than a lot of flooding everything was okay. We were all glad we weren't there at the time. All the family reported in safe and safe so a very scary situation ended good at least.

At the cabin Jeremiah and I worked on a Lego kit we got in Vegas that represents the Las Vegas Strip. I didn't get any photos. I will next time. I was just enjoying living the memories instead of capturing them this weekend I guess. I've had Wish Upon a Starfish packed while we traveled and every weekend at the cabin so far. So when I got home I finally sit down and pulled it out. I put in a few stitches but I'll wait and share an update later. Felt good to work on it again.

I hope everyone has a great week. It will feel short but I feel like I have a lot I need done in that short time. So I'll breath and do my best.....all I can do.

How scarey for everyone living locally, so pleased you and the family were all safe.
Sweet little birdies on this cute finish.

Oh, I'm glad you are okay, Katie--having a tornado hit that close-by must be terrifying. We aren't used to having tornados here in western PA, but have even had a few warnings ourselves the past couple of days. So, so much rain and flooding. Very unsettled weather, that's for sure.

Love your little finish and I hope the sun shines for you soon (cause then it will be coming east to me :)

I'm so glad Katie, that you have the time to spend with your son. It sounds like you're making a lot of wonderful moments and memories. Glad all was well after the tornadoes. We're so glad that a tornado here in our area happens so very seldom You have a wonderful week.

After the two tornadoes that hit so close to us in the last couple weeks, I understand how scary it was! I'm glad to hear that your family were all safe.
I don't think I've seen the Vegas Lego kit, it sounds like a good one.

Scary times but glad all is well and you weren't there at the time. May's little pillow is cute. We've just got our first lot of babies at our bird feeder so no doubt our nests will be emptying soon. :)

That's a cute little birdhouse. Glad the tornado did not whisk the cabin off to Oz and you are all safe.
