Camping

There's nothing quite like a campfire, especially when it means starting the summer off with a weekend in the Black Hills with family and no agenda but to eat and tell stories.

We found a (mostly) secluded campsite by Deerfield Lake -- about an hour from Rapid City -- and simply enjoyed.

Baby Shower Highlights

This weekend a couple of my aunts, my mom, and I threw a baby shower for my sister. It was a lot of fun! Here are some pictures:

Baby Blanket

My sister is having a baby! Tomorrow we are throwing her a shower to shower them both with gifts & love. (Anticipate posts about recipes and decorations, etc).

I crocheted this pink & white chevron blanket for the little one as soon as I found out the babe was a girl. I am sooo excited to be getting another niece  (and this one will live so close that I will get to babysit often.)

Oh the ruckus the two of us will make as she ages. World, you better make way for Auntie Erin and Baby Francy. We'll make a perfect pair. =)

What do you think of the baby blanket? Check out my crochet shop to see other items I have created. You can also custom order a blanket like this one if you wish. Stay tuned to the blog for a tutorial on how I made this one.
