A finish and some family time

Good morning everyone! 
I have a finish to show you
Home of a Needleworker
Little House Needleworks
Started 5/17/13
finished 6/22/13
28 ct cream Jubilee
called for CC
I will be getting this one framed and find a place to hang it in my living room. 
I actually finished this on Saturday morning. And I have a new start, this one won't take very long to finish up.

I will have this one done in the next couple of days - hopefully!

My weekend was crazy busy with truck pulls and spending time with family and friends.
Here are a few pictures from our weekend.
My DH & DS working on getting the truck ready to pull

Making last minute adjusments ( it gets a  little loud)

this is a little sign on the back of the pulling truck

On Sunday we entered our 55 GMC in a car show

Well that's about all for me today! Hope you enjoyed my pictures.

Happy Stitching

It's been a long time since I've gone to a truck pull. Thanks for the memories! Did you have a big storm too? Saw the dark clouds over your son's shoulder. Lovely new stitching pieces!
