A Breath of Fresh Air

Last week a group of women gathered for the second gathering of Grammie Rose’s Camp.I tried to keep the food on the lighter side—more fruit and cheese, less cupcakes and chocolate.  The group was a little smaller this time.  Last minute invites on my part and stupid knees that wouldn’t cooperate kept some of my favorite ladies elsewhere.

Christie came from Virginia and we set the table for some Crafts and Conversation.  In this case, the craft was an “altered” mini composition book, hidden inside a floral paper bag.  Darn!  I didn’t get a single picture of anyone with their finished books!

Okay, we did have a couple of sweet treats, including s’more bars.

I missed getting photos of some of the ladies—Karmen, Alice, Samantha.  I loved seeing everyone hard at work on their books.  It was fun to compare ideas and see how each of us approached the project in our own way.

But I captured Christie and her “bestie”, Tana, both deep in concentration.

One of my favorite parts of Grammie Rose’s Camp is getting together women who may or  may not know each other, and may or may not be very crafty.  The whole afternoon of sharing and effort warmed my heart.

Oh, and then there was the youngest lady of the group, dressed in a little skirt made by her Godmother.  It was a lovely day.
