Spring is here, BUT still loads of ICE too...

DH took Caitlyn and Cassie fishing this morning. Despite the temperatures hitting 50's today (but SADLY dreary gray) and despite the temps becoming more spring-like.....

...there's still LOADS of ice on the lakes for DH and crew to bring home some DELICIOUS fish to eat.

We've invited friends over for a fresh fish dinner tonight (Brian, pictured here in the background, and his girlfriend, Karen). I didn't realize Brian went along until DH sent these pics via his phone. Men! He was supposed to be helping Karen stain a floor today......Typical! Who's here cleaning away? Surely not DH....

I've been able to get some sewing in too----no pics yet. I prepared a backing for Raven Stars and loaded it into the frame. I prepared another backing for Roll Roll Cottonboll and it now awaits the frame. Then, I cut and prepped units for another 12 Hopscotch blocks.

Hope your Saturday is enjoyable!

Mmm, fresh fish for dinner. Sounds yummy. Looks like the girls are having lots of fun with the ice and cold and you have found some time to sew a bit, can't ask for much more than that.

I still haven't gotten to the sewing room. Probably won't get there this weekend after all unless I can't sleep...

Backing prep is a boring job, but somebody's gotta do it :) Same as housecleaning!! LOL Hope you get to have some fun soon!
