Dirt Road Adventures: Preparing For Easter & A Beach Trip
Happy Sunday, and welcome to Dirt Road Adventures! This is where we review all the exciting events behind the scenes, on the website, and the sources of inspiration I discovered online during the past week. This weekly recap ensures you don’t miss any of our adventures here at the end of our Dirt Road.
Hey friends, I’ve been busy all week finishing some of my DIY Easter projects so I could get away to the beach. We spent a few days at our cottage, then spent the weekend with some dear friends. It has been a much-needed break from everyday life and worries. I’m keeping this short and sweet as I’m trying to unplug for the weekend. I’ll fill you in with all the details next week.

Diana,
I’ve not cross-stitched in almost 40 years and now I’m hooked again! I wish I had all the pieces I made back in the day. I don’t have a one. Maybe I’ll find them in the thrift stores. LOL>. Have a blessed weekend.
