Summer Loving....

 

Hey Girlfriends......

Hopefully  your summer is full of loving, sun and fun!  Stacy is in her hometown of Roseau with the family and friends living up the good 'ole times.  County fairs, lemonade, chatting on the farm and enjoying the charm of growing up in a small town are being passed down to her lovely daughters with each passing day!

As for the Basin..we have been hard at work revamping, brainstorming and stepping up our stitching game!  We have some new fun things in the works, including new workshops, club of the month and an HUGE event announcement in September (please watch blog for more details)!  

Now we have something fun.......

Stacy and I reminisce a great deal about the differences of growing up in a small town (Stacy) and growing up in the city (Lola) and what memories mean the most to us!

Here's what we are doing...

Briefly share with us your favorite summer memory.   We will randomly pick one memory on 7/25 and the winner will receive a $50.00 online credit to Buttermilk Basin.  Remember you need to be a follower to be eligible.  We will announce the winner Tuesday 7/26!

Here's to sharing the summer loving.....

Sad News...

.....I should be snuggled in bed drifting of into a nice dream... 

However, today we got some sad news and I just can't sleep.  

Our oldest cat Winsten, who is 16, was diagnosed with cancer this morning.  He has a very large mass in his intestines and it is not curable or removable at this point.  For the most part, I was really caught off guard and unprepared for the news to say the least... especially since I brought my two girls with to the (what I thought would be a "typical") appointment.  They were devastated and heart broken when we heard the news.  The thought of them having to say good bye to the "Big Boy" just breaks my heart.... Gonna go snuggle again with him and see if he will eat a little for me...  

Love you, Winsten XOXO!  

Winsten our on way to the vet this morning...

Signs of Summer!

Hey... Well, the good sign is after a lot of tlc and waiting patiently... 

I picked our first cute batch of raspberries from our little patch!  

Not too shabby for some city slickers! (:

Raspberries...fresh from the patch!

Then, the bad sign is realizing that even though we have a lawn guy and True Green take care of our lawn...  they can not fix dead grass created by a left out slip-n-slide!!!!  (Special thanks to my two darling girls for making that beautiful piece of art in the back yard - I still love u.. MOM!) {Grin!}

Slip-n-slide Happens!

Hope you all are enjoying these gorgeous summer days!  Make some memories and try not to make a dead grass streak on your nicely manicured lawn!!! (:
