Last weekend I took a trip to Long Island to catch up with friends and see my Mom for her birthday.
On Saturday evening I went to a minor league baseball game with friends to see the Long Island Ducks! It was a special military appreciation night. There was a presentation to the forces attending the game and the home team guys wore camouflage uniforms. Such a beautiful stadium!
Lots of great fun with audience participation games between each inning, with the help of the team mascot - Quackerjack!
A grand finish to the evening with a win for the home team and a fireworks extravaganza!
On Sunday I took my mother out for a birthday lunch at her favorite chinese buffet. We had a nice time celebrating and catching up. Then I was on the road again back home.
Hope you have a stitch-y weekend! I hope to do the same! Enjoy! xxxx

I really like what the black thread brings to the sampler! Glad your summer is going so well.
Fabulous progress on your Quaker, Krista! I love the pop that the black thread makes in the alphabet. It looks like you had a wonderful weekend at Long Island.
Enjoy the coming week!
