Monday!

I was able to get a lot done on the Ribbon afghan this weekend. :)

This pretty much shows all the colors I am using in this afghan. I may add another shade of brown. A medium color brown color.

 Its finally looking like the kids will be able to go back to school again. Hopfully tomorrow. Sean has exams to make up when he goes back. A week off from school is going to be a little tough to make up.  Kyra dosn't have any tests to make up, but she will be starting 2nd semester classes soon.

Kyra wrapped up in her Christmas blanket.

 Have a wonderful day everyone!

Road Trip !!

This is only a small sample of all the pictures we took on our Road Trip. We had a really great day up in the mountains. Really enjoyed the changing leaves. :)

Sean

Fiber Friday- A couple little projects.

 I made up a couple more pumpkins in some non traditional colors. Looking at this picture though, the colors make them look more like apples. Hmmm! I think I need to keep working on these. Maybe I can make up a little basket of fruits and veggies. That would be neat. :) I have not been following a pattern on these so they don't all come out exactly the same. The rose one is made with Red Heart yarn in Cafe brown, Paddy Green and Light Raspberry. The green one, I used what was left from the hat. It is Loops and Threads in Fern Greeen, Red Heart in Cafe Brown and Paddy Green

 I also finished off another set of Dishcloths. I used my own pattern for these. 

I used peaches and cream cotton in Bright Navey, Burgandy,Ecru and Cranberry Blues.

These are a for a friend from church. :)

And lastly, here is Sean! FINALLY was able to get another photo of him. He really dislikes me taking pictures. LOL! I picked up a new craft to try out. It is a knitting Loom. I think I need to go back and get one of the round ones. :) He is working on the start of a scarf in this picture. :)

I am joining in a new Linky today. YAY! If you would like to join as well ..... you can find Fiber Fridays and Visions of Sugar Plums

Have a wonderful day everyone!!!

First Day of School!!!

 It is back to school day!!! And the kids were very excited to head out the door. Kyra was up at 5am..... She was ready to head to the bus stop by 6am. LOL! But the bus dosn't get here untill after 6:30. And with this being the first week of school...... Its hard to tell what time the bus will get here. Anywhere between 6:30 and 7:30.

Ms Kyra who is easy to take pictures of... She loves the camara......

Mr Sean who runs and hides everytime the camara is out...... LOL!


 Well they are at school now. Hope they have a good day at school....


 Have a great day everyone!!!

We have been having a really great time at VBS this week. I have been helping out with the crafts and the kids have enjoyed them so much. They will be taking home some really cute things this year. My two favorite crafts so far have been the Cricket sticks and the Bandana Necklaces. So cute :) Tonight they will be making some Memory Verse books. :)

Here is My Sean.... He is always makign some type of a face. LOL! He dosn't really like getting his picture taken. But, I love taking pictures so I am always catching some funny and crazy photos of him.

And here is Ms. Kyra.... She on the other hand, loves to have her picture taken. She has her own digital camara and is always taking pictures of herself.... She turned 13 this year, so we have another teenager in the house. And boy does she let you know she is a teen now.......

And finally here is a project that Kyra is working on. She is making her very own afghan. She is doing really good so far. :)

Ripple Afghan, Noah, and Sean

I have been workign right along on my ripple afghan. I am finishing up the last row of Aran now and then I will be adding Rose Pink next. I am really enjoying the way this afghan is looking. After the Rose pink color is added I have a pale yellow and frosty green color to add. Then I will be repeating those colors. When I finish this afghan I will be starting on a granny stripe afghan. I think I will try and use up more of my scrap yarn I have all over the place. :)

Yesterday was Seans last full day at school for this year. He was pretty tired when he got home and fell asleep. He has 2 more half days and this year is finished.

This is Noah. We adopted him about a month or so ago. He has been a lot of fun. Loves to play.

And has shredded several toys allready. If you look closly in the corner is one of his toys he had just tore apart.

Hello :)

Eric Made it! He graduation from high school on June 13th!! Yeah Eric.

Here is Kyra wearing her new earrings made by Amy :)

Sean singing his solo in his last choir concert of the year.

He also won outstanding Tenor for the school year. :)

Happy Easter :)

Meet Mr Frog

Meet Mr Frog.

I made him with 100% Cotton in Emerald Green.

You stick this little cutie on your hand and use it for bath time with your baby or young child. Such a cute little bath mitt. He is not quite complete yet. He still needs his arms and feet.

Then I am going to make a mathing one and send these off to Michigan.

Mr Sean trying to hide out in the little cubbie by the TV.

Too Funny.

Youth Weekend

This weekend is our Youth Weekend at church. Last night was the Lock in at church. Most of the kids stayed up all night.

Kyra was tired when she got home and laid down right away. This was her first time staying the full night at the lock in.

Sean said he was wide awake and there was no way he was going to fall asleep when he got home from the Lock in. Surprise! He still crashed. He was trying to play a game on the computer and just couldn't stay awake. :)

This afternoon they have there Progressive Dinner. I am sure they will have fun traveling to differant members homes. :)

Worn Out

After a long holiday break, Sean is getting pretty worn out. He has been staying up late playing video games and working on a crocheted afghan. (Will get a picture of that later) It looks like the late nights are finally catching up with him.
