Lakefront Property



What a wild day. It was so nice today and then Mother Nature struck. Everytime it started storming my boys ran to the window and watched our lake grow. Typically it's just lawn but the past week and with our high water table created this lovely lake between our yard and our neighbors. My husband who likes to see the bright side of things asked if we really did have a lake in our yard, he was still downtown. and I said yes. "Call the realtor," he said. Our basement is still dry as our property slopes downward to the back gravel road. There is a creek behind that and it should get interesting the next couple of days. . . .

Monique and I were working together Sunday because she has a really cool braided bracelet workshop that she teaches. No one showed up because of all the flooding in town. I knew as I pulled my favorite black tee from the closet that we would be twins. People ask if we sisters!

Tuesday, my friend, Karen and I took step by step photos for our Knotted & Braided Necklace workshop. Once thoroughly proofread and analyzed, I will be putting the instructions and kits for sale on Etsy. Monique, the cutie in the previous photo, created this awesome technique and we just love it!
Moving slowly with Etsy because I actually need Ruth's camera and photo program. All my darn pics come out blurry!

I can relate to the water fun! Two days without power, a leaky roof, and a leaky basement. But all is under control and the sky is blue and clear again! Lovely necklace, adorable picture!
