Belated Happy Mothers Day!

Hope all the moms enjoyed a day just for you! Mothers Day is one of my favorite days -- it usually signifies the beginning of the summer, watermelons, fresh veggies from the farmers market, and day trips to the beach.

We had great plans to visit Davenport on Sunday, but Henry got car sick along the way, so we took a detour and went to Santa Cruz instead. Since we were there, my loving husband let me stop by the Golden Fleece and bought me 12 balls of Brown Sheep Nature Spun sports weight in different colors. That calls for a fair isle sweater for me.

Then we hit the Seabright Beach, it was nice and cool. I took couple of walks up and down the beach, and the guys played badminton and football. Henry loves it when the waves run over his legs, at one point he actually fell down and was being carried by a big wave right into the ocean. He was walking one minute, next thing you know he was in the water sliding away. Luckily dad was right next to him and fished him right up, and the brave child wanted to chase after the wave for his badminton racket that he dropped when he went down. Well, other than that little scare, it was all very very nice.

Any trip that includes a yarn store visit is great in my book! But the idea of ocean waves dragging your child away might cancel out the joy of yarn!
