It Was a Dark and Stormy Night...

We spent this weekend with our son and his family, playing with our littlest (for now!) man and helping our daughter in love with her business. She makes custom baby items and she had a booth at a show this weekend. She sews beautifully and has some very unusual and creative things!

Shameless plug for her signature "baprons" (combination bib and apron) and diaper covers!
But what a cute little model! He's about a year old here.

As we were driving home last night, the predicted storms were starting to move in and we had quite a lightening show. I got to bed around midnight and was awakened about 1 by terrific wind and rain. My husband had stayed up to watch the weather since it was a pretty bad storm. We surveyed the damage this morning-lots of small tree limbs down and we lost one big tree.


To give you an idea of it's size, if I was standing in front of it, the part in the middle that sticks up would be above my head. It was an odd tree that split into two trunks near the base which twisted around each other. It looks like it had rotted where they grew around each other. Fortunately, it was far from the house.

  3. Glad only a tree was hurt by the storm, but even so, it's sad to see a tree go down. What a darling little model there! So nice your DIL has a business out of her home.
