Rusty took the girls for a few nights to the cabin, so I could get some things done, not to mention, so much needed alone time. So, I fit so much into my couple of days that I am just giddy with excitement. Along with a much overdue haircut, I am getting my craft world organized! Had a craft night with the girls from church, and worked two nights. I was also able to watch "Project Runway" last night. 3 very good designers, with VERY different ideas. I am very inspired by this show. Anyone want to give me a dress form for Christmas?...lol
This is a pillow that I have finally completed. I began it in China in 2006:( At least it is finished!
Finished up two gifts, working on another one (the afghan above.) Also, I put up a shelf in Sophia's room, did a little Christmas shopping...not going to race around for the Hamster toy everyone is looking for...what a crock that is--
Working on the birds again, and boy have I got plans!!! I should be able to update the finished project really soon! Taa taa!
Looking out my dining room window this morning- beautiful. No school- yeah a true snow day!
These are just a couple of the new bracelets I have made. The one above can be found at the Tomorrow River Gallery & Gifts, and the bottom one-well-a barter for my friend Becky.
Happy Shoveling everyone!!!!
Notice the smiles! Best Thanksgiving I've had in a long time! In case you are wondering-
My fondest memory of my Grandma Schmitt was her crocheting at the kitchen table after dinner, sitting with my Grandpa, watching TV, visiting with each other and any of their 11 children, or friendly neighbors who randomly stopped in. Usually with a cold beer on the table, and a smile on her face. Over the Thanksgiving weekend, one of my Aunts very graciously gave me a crochet project my grandma had been working on over
I LOve, LOve, LOve these fabrics...and of course the yarn for this gorgeous shawl I am planning on. Also started decorating, you know the BIG decorating extravaganza of the year!!!! I will be out of town later this week for a few days so I thought I better get started on it now.
Found a couple of gret sites for you to visit-On Awesome Avenue and Joy the Baker. Check these out if you can!

Rusty came home today with his Bow-hunting buck, a nice sized 8-pointer, the girls are so proud of him! I am too, he LOVES this time of the year, and he has had a few unsuccessful bow hunting years of late! Besides the dead animal, I actually think this is my new favorite photo!
