your boys come home in a flurry of stories about T-Rex's eating rotten pickles, love for their fixed-up rooms, and a presents of holey rocks!
If you have read my blog for a while you will remember that my hubby and I have always been finders, collectors, and sharers of holey rocks. They are often called friendship rocks also as the tradition is that you can give them away to friends. When Jody and I met we discover on our first date that we both loved holey rocks. He gave me the holey rock that I wear still today way back in the day when we went on our first camping trip together. I wore it when both of my sons were born and it never leaves my neck. My boys each have holey rock that we gave them as weaning gifts when they were toddlers.
Most of our holey rocks come from this beautiful southern part of my state that we go camping at each year that the boys went to last weekend. Since mama was not there they searched and found mama some holey rocks to add to the collection!
They discovered sweet presents when they got home. They got super cutie pie shorts that a gal- sweet mama Katja had made them. She had asked to do a barter and they are just so cute and well made. They have had the pleasure of growing up with some wonderfully cute shorts handmade from talented friends. Yes they do love those slicky shorts just like their cousins, but I adore them in the jam style shorties!
They slipped right into them as soon as they opened them up. If you want to read a great article, Katja wrote a wonderful article in the summer Living Crafts magazine about the Rainbow Blanket knitting reunion. Such a neat story! Check it out if you get a chance!
In loving friendship, I will pass one of these magical holey rocks onto one of you. Just leave a comment here between now and Friday July 10 and I will draw a name, put kisses on the rock and send your way! Tell me your favorite rock story!
