It's Day 7 of the 

Buttermilk Basin Summer Blog Hop! 

I am so excited to get to share with you today!! 

 As a kid, summers meant moving for our family. 

I know it sounds crazy...but we moved every summer

 and to me as a kid it always seemed like an adventure!! 

We didn't often get to go to summer camps, 

 but we did spend a lot of time with our immediate family

 getting our new home set up and when we were finished

 we went on camping, fishing, and beach trips. 

Now.... as a NANA I love spending time in the summer with the grandkids!!

A fun summer activity with the kids is having a lemonade stand!! 

I think I probably buy most of it and end up with a belly full of lemonade!! 

My good friend Joy has a lemon tree and when we visit 

we always get to pick fresh lemons and bring them home!! 

There is nothing like Fresh Squeezed Lemonade!!!

Now..... if you are going to a Summer Potluck

 you might want to try these 

BBQ Meatballs!!

My friend shared this recipe with me and it's a new favorite here for sure!! 

It's so fun getting ready for these blog hops!! 

Choosing a recipe...... cooking it up....taking the photos!! 

Then getting to sample the goods!!! 

YUMMY!! 

You know the old saying...

When Life Give you Lemons,,,,Make Lemonade??? 

Well my project is a spin off of that....

When Life Gives you Lemons....SEW!!! 

What's better than that!!

A little stitching can brighten those cloudy summer days!!!

Here is a little Lemon Pincushion

 and 

Needle Keeper 

for you to sit on the porch, 

 sip your lemonade, and stitch away!! 

and if you still want to stitch more....make a lemon coaster!!! 

Happy Summer!!
