Crab Supper
I’m finally back up and running on Xanga again. For a month or so I just couldn’t get on Xanga. I finally called my computer lady (thanks Amy!) and in no time she had me up and running again.
I don’t even know where to begin with my busy summer. I have spent an amazing amount of time working on a project I’m doing for our church conference. Don’t get me wrong it really wasn’t working but “playing” since it had to do with sewing and quilts. Conference is this week so when it’s over I’ll share a post on my project.Last evening we had a Crab and Shrimp supper in honor of Father’s Day. I know, I know, Father’s Day was a long time ago. Holly and Timmy have been planning this for a long time now and it’s finally suited.
Cheryl I see your place at the table is the neatest and cleanest!
Max had no problem tackling his crabs!
He is becoming quite the crab picker! I think he took care of 4 or 5 crabs.
Holly had asked all 6 of our children to write out a blessing for Mark for this coming year. Thanks, Israel in Michigan, Queena in Malaysia, Chris in South Carolina for your kind words and blessings to dad. We missed you all last evening.
Thanks Jeremy, Holly and Timmy for your blessings there around the table. We love you all so much!
Boaz being introduced to Maggie! He’s not to sure about that bundle of fur.
Max enjoying the swing his daddy put in the tree a couple years ago. We push a picnic table up close and he can get in the swing and push off from that for a nice long ride.
Before everyone went home we put in a Skype call to Dorie and James in Malaysia. It’s still amazes me how we can talk to them as if they are in the next room and yet they are half way around the world!
Thanks Holly and Timmy for honoring your dad. The evening was so very special and will be remembered for a long time.

Good to see you on here again, Polly! I have missed you and your family!
What a nice thing to do for Dad. Skype is amazing. I just finished a small tied quilt for my grand-daughter’s expected baby. I’m not a quilter, so it was a big project for me. Remember to show us your church project.
Your ribbon quilt is one I love to see over and over, I think it’s my favorite one of yours!! So thankful I had the opportunity to view it in person..but I think your new quilt is right up there at the top of my favorites, too!
I have missed seeing your posts. Looking forward to seeing more on the conference quilt. Skyp is just amazing. Us grandmas love to keep up our grandchildren that are far away.
Boaz ~ cute name for a cute little one ~
I missed your posts. What a great tribute to Mark. I know you are so very thankful for him. Love the swing. I’m thinking it’s time to put one up here in our back yard.
I enjoyed your “wallhangings”. I am glad you are back on Xanga. I find that I don’t post as often since I am not doing a quilt a month this year. I guess I will have to do that again next year.
I love to see your pictures, too. Cute kids, even the big ones.
Missed you Ms.Polly =) I’m dying to see that quilt ~ the sneak peek looks awesome =)
Hey Mom!
Loved the post. I now have Xanga set up to e-mail me your posts whenever you make them, so you should be getting more regular comments from this son of yours. I absolutely love reading your Xanga! : ) Of course, this is pretty ironic, since now I will actually be there for most of the things you post on Xanga.
