Ruby Baby Summertime

Posted by Unknown
Well, where has the time gone since I last blogged? I can't say it's been because I've been out sunning myself, because there has been tremendous rain throughout the "summer" (and I use the word loosely!) here in the UK.

First of all on 13 July, the Great Normano and I celebrated our 40th wedding anniversary. We went out for a meal with our family, including Evan on his first big outing since his birth event!

The girls from the craft group produced lovely ruby cards for us, which were greatly appreciated.

Then we went on holiday to our old haunt of Scarborough, North Yorkshire on England's east coast. Amazingly we had a lovely sunny, dry week!

While we were away Ruth had her big event of becoming a Grandmother to baby Leo!

 I didn't do any crafting while on holiday but just look at this sculpture on Marine Drive...


I did however visit a craft shop in Scarborough: Craft Inspiration and bought some nice Marianne dies.

Home to the Olympics, which mostly took place in London, though there was some football in Scotland's National Stadium, Hampden, which is right by where Ruth lives.
Wenlock Mascot in Glasgow Central Station

Hopefully, that brings us up to date with Craft & Chat. The Craft group hasn't got going yet after the summer break, but I'll keep you posted. We finished last time by doing Inkylicious pictures.

Looks like you had a wonderful time. that statue of the guy on the bench is humungous!! Wild!
Tell Ruth congrats on becoming a grandma, too.
Been a long hot summer over here and it hasn't ended yet. Have a great week. :)
