And then.....


....our home was finally finished!!!!  


The furniture was put back in place....and pictures were hung on the wall. 


Jim's photography made the prized place over the fireplace. 


My many photos of the sweet ones created a gallery wall that I LOVE!!!


Favorite collections were placed where I could enjoy them....


Each room brings a smile to my heart. 


We had a joyous family reunion at Oma's lovely home....


The little ones had their own reunion to scrub off the dirt from playtime!!!



We have enjoyed our Dutch family so much.



Breakfast in the garden....


...where my new dishes look like the flowers that are blooming in abundance. 




We couldn't be having a better time.



Lots of catching up to do,  but also time to rest from our touring. 


We visited the Mission....


....and the beach. 


It feels like Summer at its best!!!


Best news.....I am even finding some time to sew!!!

Still a bit more tweaking to do to get the home totally finished, 
but the hard work has been more than worth it!!!

Always such a great feeling when the work is done!
How fun to meet up with family from far away, I am sure they enjoyed your hospitality! And how fun it is to find some time to quilt, so relaxing after busy times!
