Finally a day to rest....

We're having a lazy day today and I'm really enjoying it! I've spent quite a bit of time stitching. I'm working on a piece for a friend. I love the design and the designer but it seems to be coming along slowly and I have no idea why. I'm seeing a lot of progress today. If I could get 2 or 3 good days of stitching in I could get it done. It may be that it seems like it's taking a while because I've been so busy lately and haven't had a lot of stitching time. It just seems like I started it a while ago and it should be done. My mom's birthday is tomorrow so I made her a birthday cake today. It's a coconut supreme cake. Isn't it pretty? I was going to take it to her tomorrow but got the urge to today and I'm so glad I did. When I gave it to her she told me she had just gone out and bought the goodies to make herself a coconut cake. Did I get that cake choice right or what?! I'm glad I didn't wait till tomorrow because she would've had 2! I also picked up a bouquet of miniature roses for her on the way to her house. Tomorrow we'll be going out to dinner with them for her b-day. I'm thinking I might have to stop back by her house for a piece of that cake :). I just ordered our Rangers tickets for the 4th of July game. We're really excited about that! We went last year and had the best time. They have a really amazing fireworks show after the game. They don't even have a fireworks show here so we must venture off to find the festivities.
