We're packing up the minivan and headed to the Boundary Waters ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boundary_Waters_Canoe_Area_Wilderness ) so I will be
::knitting
:: swimming- if the water is warmer than 65 degrees
:: reading the History of Love
:: watching the cousins play

The review of Julie & Julia in the paper was great. So excited to see the movie. Anxious to hear what you think of the book.

Oh wow you have a busy weekend.

My weekend unfortunately involves work (Saturday and Sunday), huh paid work! But I will definitely fit in some time to watch my son play Aussie Rules Football, visit a coffee shop, walk the dog, and definitely sew.sew.sew.

Rita
ps it is already very late Fri evening here, finally some time to catch up on some blogs!

I thoroughly enjoy reading your blog! We have some things in common- I love to take pictures, have an EOSxsi, I had to get the one with the bigger screen cuz I couldn't see the old one! I crochet (close to knitting)I do it during practices, I cuss, too much for my own good, I call my kids Fatty Bear (after an old computer game) I have a Bernina 640E, a serger, and I just ordered and HQ-16, I think you said procrastinate, I do that real well- And lastly you have inspired me to start a blog for my childrens sake. I bought beautiful monogrammed journals and haven't written in them- imagine that! I have read hundreds of blogs and I can say that your has certainly reached me. I know sounds corny- but I'm fixin' to send my son to college in a week and he'll be 6 hours away!! I am an emotional wreck right now. Anyway, keep on blogging because ordinary people like me love reading it and enjoy all the photography!! Oh, my weekend will consist of: finishing my son's quilt for college, taking care of my daughter who just had foot surgery, going to my quilt shops Christmas Carnival, making homemade cc cookies, running, talking a lot to my twin sister, washing my dog Harriet!

Mornin', Erin!

I'm planning a family party this weekend, just for kicks, so today there will be some last-minute prep work, and tomorrow there will be grandparents, cousins, and aunts & uncles hanging around. Am so looking forward to it!

Your weekend sounds fabulous, too :-)
P.S. I read Julie & Julia last month before I even knew there was a movie coming out. Enjoyable read, I thought!

[dani@little fists]

Hmmm. I pick up The Offspring today. I plan to detox them after eating a week of rubbish at Nana and Pappa's house. They should expect oraganic, whole grain, leafy green goodness.

We have some school shopping to do.
I need to meet my nemesis: laundry.
I would love to make some head-way on That Damn Afghan.
New crochet thread is calling me.
Mad Men season 2, disc 1 is waiting to be watched.

That's at the top of the list. It's the last weekend before teachers report back to school. I will enjoy it.

[anina]

That sounds like a heavenly weekend.
Me:
Work in the garden.
Work on store stuff.
Finish a little quilt I'm making.
Write a runner pattern.
Go for a nice long hike on a pretty forest trail.

Have a great one!

[Sarah Jackson]

I'm going to:

-drive a Budget truck to Tucson with Lindsay's furniture in it and unload it into a 2nd floor apartment in 100 degree temperatures.
-drive to Flagstaff to get out of the heat and spend some time with dear friends before school starts and we all get busy.
-hopefully pick up a new to me Bernina. maybe I'll get to do that today so I can bring it to Flagstaff.

I think the next weekend I'm just going to rest.
