Sunset over Lake Michigan
Last week was our annual family camping trip for my side of the family. My siblings, their kids, our parents and sometimes a few additional tag-a-longs camp together and we always have a good time. We stay at one of our beautiful state park campgrounds, which varies from year to year. This year we camped at Muskegon State Park on Lake Michigan.
Of course, camping doesn't mean I can't do any quilting. This year I brought along supplies to do some hand applique work. This particular project still had a long way to go before it is done. You will get to see more when the applique is complete. For now, you will have to settle for this peek.
As luck would have it, my birthday, which I share with my nephew's fiance, happened to be during our camping trip. So we made the family announcement board that was proudly displayed for all to see. (Thanks to my niece, Mallory, who was in charge of keeping us all informed of the news.) And because I had a birthday, I got to grace my picnic table with these...
Kind of gave the campsite an upscale look. I think everyone should have roses on their picnic table. :D

Wow, looks like you had a very nice birthday. What fun. I love camping. There is nothing like watching the sun set over Lake Michigan. You have to show us more of that beautiful applique you are working on!
Happy Birthday! Your roses certainly added an air of civility to your camping ground. Fancy teasing us with that applique. I eagerly await the reveal. Ann :)
Happy Birthday! The sunset picture is gorgeous.
