Saturday morning, we got up and headed Southeast to Hermiston. On the way there, I crocheted around this blanket:
The DH chose the fabric because it's for his grandson, due to make his entrance into the world in October. He kept hounding me about getting it done in time. It was a piece of cake.
We got to The DH's sister's house around 4:00 in the afternoon and got to see the outstanding watermelon's and canteloupe that Gus found for us at a farm. We also got to take a tour of his vegetable garden and see (and taste) some of the great produce he's growing. That evening took Gus and Shannon out for Gus' birthday and ate wonderful Thai food. Mmm!
On Sunday, we went to church with Gus and Shannon and then hung out with them and helped prepare for the birthday party. Gus smoked three chickens and gave us one of them to take home with us. They were SO good! We had a really nice time at the party and got to hang out with their wonderful friends and family. After the party, we left with watermelon, canteloupe, frozen chickens, eggs, one smoked chicken, green peppers, and leftovers from the party.
On the way home, I crocheted around this blanket:
I chose this fabric and I think it will be fun for my co-worker's little boy due later this year.
We got home pretty late on Sunday night, so we were totally beat on Monday morning, but it was worth it to have some quality family time.

Those blankets are soooo cute. You are a fast worker - much faster than me. I'm glad someone else is doing crocheting on baby blankets. Good work, Noelle.
I love the hot rod flames on that first blanket!
