WILDLIFE
One of the best things about visiting my parents house is the abundant wildlife they have. Squirrels, baby raccoons, and birds galore. When I visited on Father's Day, I saw a baby hawk sitting on the brush pile. Dad and I debated about what kind of bird it was... I said hawk, he said owl. I knew it wasn't an owl since I'd caught two baby owls when I was a teenager. I really wished I'd had my good camera. These were taken with my cell phone, hence the poor quality:

Thanks Carolyn,
for reminding me I had these photos!
SCHOOL
I'm already into Week 5 of my summer semster. Only 3 more weeks to go! I'm taking Cost Accounting and can say that I probably won't be aspiring to be a cost accountant anytime soon. Yuck. I managed to finish my homework and test last week before I got down to the retreat. :) Got a "B" on the test and an "A" on the homework. Woo Hoo!


STITCHY STUFF
The postman was really nice to me last week! I won a giveaway on Carolyn's blog (Taking One Stitch At A Time). The charts arrived while I was away on retreat.

Motifs Inspired By Whitman's Tins by Fancy Works
Whitman's Tin Sewing Set by Fancy Works.
The second package contained an asian-themed scissor fob made by Karen of Sunshine Stitches. It's beautiful and my photo doesn't do it justice.
