Yesterday was kind of a lazy summer day. The weather was perfect for playing outside, so Grandpa Dave helped the kids build an outdoor water bed and a water canon. The water bed leaked like crazy, but the kids had lots of fun drenching each other. What could possibly be better than a yard full of kids and water shooting everywhere?
Daughter Carol and grandson Aidan grilled hamburgers for dinner. We all ate until we were stuffed, and then we watched a little t.v.
The only crafting I managed to accomplish was to crochet one coaster.
I found this
pretty coaster pattern for free. I wanted one that would fit on top of my stone coaster. I drink a lot of ice water in the summer, and the stone coaster just can't absorb all of the condensation. This one is just a little too large.
I'll either try crocheting this pattern in sport weight cotton rather than worsted weight, or I'll find a smaller coaster pattern. I want it to be the same size as the stone coaster so that I don't miss and set my cup off the edge. You know what a mess that would create!
