good friends, walking, and stitching

This weekend was spent in San Antonio with our dear friends ..... she and I first met in 2cnd grade.......then our hubbys were post high school roomates.....crazy fun ever since.
We participated in the rock n roll 1/2 marathon
dh ran...the rest of us walked.....woke at 0430 am
We are smiling because our feet are still happy then!






34,000 participants
ran past the alamo...........


but I  still had time to stitch as sweet friend cooked in the kitchen like a mega hostess
while I asked if there was anything I could do to help btwn stitches:



santa still needs button
and finishing into something


Winter Woolens was a fun stitch, finished early last week:  another one that needs finishing.
Finished wash cloth #2 on Friday, LNS owner taught me to crochet around the edge.
The actual cloth is misshapen....but it was fun, (soap hides some flaws :0) .....)


I started knitting a scarf...more pics later....
Hope your week is good
