Relaxing

Over Labor Day weekend, we spent an afternoon visiting at my sister-in-law Joy's family home. Joy is definitely a kindred spirit. She encouraged me to join her at craft shows more that fifteen years ago and we have been doing shows together ever since. Joy, of Joyfully Yours, is a talented folk artist who always inspires me.Their home is lovely and their backyard is like a little slice of Eden. An afternoon in the garden and I felt as refreshed as if I had been on vacation. The fish and Koi are so sweet. When Joy or her husband Garry come near, the fish come right to the edge and almost flip out of the water. The following one was my favorite...I have put two of Joy's sheep creations in my etsy shop. We'll share a shop for now :) just as we hope to share a brick and mortar shop someday... You'll be seeing more Joyfully Yours creations soon.

We are off for a long weekend of camping at one of my favorite state parks. This is how our youngest son has chosen to spend his birthday. (He wants to open gifts and eat cake around the campfire.) Hopefully, I will have some lovely photos when I return. I know that I have some big Winding Vine Designs news to share when I get back.

Blessings, Patti
