Still hanging onto summer here, which is easy to do when the daily high temp is still climbing into the 80s. It's been sunny and quite lovely — except for the mosquitos, which have arrived en force thanks to all the rain we had a couple of weeks ago (there are areas of the state that are still dealing with flooding from all that). Still, it's not a hurricane… and I'm thinking all the good thoughts for those impacted by Florence.
It's easy to feel the summer feels when there are still photos to process! I have many to share over the next few posts, including the debut of a brand new shutterbug.
But first, there was a little preview of a quick photo shoot with the kids before Ali & I took the kids to Bay Beach last month. Junah, Ginny, and Malina are wearing coordinating outfits that Annie brought for them from Spain — so adorable!
Oh, my heart. Gin wasn't happy until she was holding the baby, and if Junah gives Malina a kiss, then Gin will, too! And then, the palm-reader photo that means ENOUGH! Haha.
Mack & Addy had to jump in, too!
Oh my heart, again! I just love all the love and smiles.

I'm moving a little better — able to stretch and extend more — every day. The massage was great the other day, and I've another one scheduled in a couple of weeks. My shoulder is still quite stiff & sore, though, and it's been tough to knit (among other things). I finished my Mitered Crosses and mailed them off to Kat on Wednesday, but I've not knit at all some days… I managed two rows on my Savage Heart Cardigan last night.
So, geez, I guess I'll be taking it easy again this weekend! I'm planning to run around the city-wide rummage sale with Ali for a while tomorrow, and Rusty will be returning from his week-long teaching gig in Door County. I'm also planning to roast some tomato sauce, and there's a Packer game on Sunday! Have a great weekend!

Love those cute kid photos and all those kisses! Take it easy and I hope you find some treasures this weekend!
Those kids are all so adorable! I got your squares today! Yay! Now you rest and have a wonderful weekend!
Smiles for miles! So glad you got photos of these precious moments. Equally happy to hear you’re improving, even if not at a rapid pace.
Great photos, Vicki! and so glad to hear you’re healing. I also love hearing about your “hanging on to summer” weather. I was in Madison for the last time exactly a year ago and it was delightful!
Those pictures are adorable and really capture everyone’s personalities! I hope your shoulder continues to improve, enjoy your weekend and rest up!
Great photos of the kids. Gin is looking like you now. Sorry your shoulder is still a bother. Try some Arnica gel on it.
You have a busy weekend ahead! So good to hear your shoulder is recovering nicely and that you’re taking care of it. LOVE every photo. I can imagine how each and everyone fill your heart with joy and they each bring to mind a story.
That photo of Gin is a keeper! 🙂 I hope you’re feeling even better after the weekend!
Oh, those kiddos!!!! Just so, so wonderful. XOXO
Take care of yourself, Vicki. I’m glad you’re healing — although it’s never quite fast enough, is it?
(And mosquitos? Oh, my. We’re up north – where it’s also been raining more than not this summer — and the mosquitos are just BRUTAL.)
