Laundry Day ???

Our Clothsline.

This picture was actully taken yesterday. A lot of our snow has allready melted and turned into an icy mess. I don't think I will be able to hang the cloths out to dry for a few days atleast. LOL! Its still quite cold out there right now. But we will be in the 70's by the weekend. Isn't it crazy how the weather can change so quickly? We did enjoy the snow here though. But I will be glad when it is gone and things get back to normal here. Everything shuts down around here, and there is never any milk and bread left in the stores. As soon as the weather man mentions snow, everyone runs to the store.

Here are the puppies running in the snow. They were not sure what to think of the snow at all.
They were very happy when we took them back in and they didn't have the cold white stuff on there paws anymore.



Here is an updated picture of the Sandstone Ripple. I folded it in half so it would fit in the picture. With all the snow outside, I can't take my normal outside pictures. It is now 50 inches in length. So it will be done soon. (I hope) I am considering doing another one like it in simular colors.

SNOW!!!

Getting snow here in North Carolina is always exciting. :)

The top picture was taken this morning. The rest were taking last night when it was snowing.

Snow Day!!!

This picture was taken around 5 am.

We have snow! It started snowing around 4 am. We have about 1/2 inch of snow.

And it is snowing again. Maybe we will get a little more accumilation.

Unbeleivably, they did not cancel school today. Normally here they do.

Its not the sticky stuff, so we can't really make a snowman. But it sure is nice to see some snow here.

Snow and new puppies

All 7 puppies

JC and the Puppies

Well, we now have a new dog with 7 puppies. Last night, she gave birth to 4 girls and 3 boys.
I have no idea what we will do with them all. Hopfully we can find them all a good home.
I do know that Bob's friend would like to have one or maybe two. :) So we still have atleast 6 more homes to find. (When they are all 7 weeks old)


We woke up to see some snowflakes falling this morning. But it wasn't enough to even stick to the ground.

Missing The Snow

No, that is not a picture at my house. But I sure wish it was. I really miss the snow. Growing up in Michigan was always fun in the winter with all the beautiful snow.

The picture above is actully a shot at my moms place. :)

Snow in NC. In Oct????

That is my view everymorning. Its been fun watching the color come in. This picture was taken yesterday, before it got cold. It started out pretty nice here, but as the day moved on, the heat went out. We dropped down into the 30's last night, and they predicted snow. WHAT!! Snow in Oct in NC?? Now we didn't get any snow down here in the Piedmont. They were talking snow up in the mountains. Even in the mountains this is too early for snow. But all the ski fans are excited. :)





I received a new order of Peaches and Cream cotton yesterday. So I will be making many more dishcloths, and pouches. The picture above shows the different colors that I received. That is not all that I bought though. I have duplicates of all of those. :)



Uh Oh!! I started a new afghan.(Joansie, I am running and hiding now. I really have lost count as to how many projects I am working on) I figure now that it is getting colder it was time to work on another one. Right now I am using the green from Jareds Ripple that I finished. I should have enough of this color to do about 1/3rd of the afghan. So I need to figure out a couple more colors to add to it.
I am using the box stitch to make this one. Thanks to seeing the pretty afghan that Tara had made over at Faith Acre Farm. I just had to make one.
I will be posting some new pictures of the slippers I am working on soon. :) I don't have a currant picture right now. But they will be done soon. I just need to finish up 2 more of my large bath and shower puffs first. :)

Have a great day all! Hope not everyone is freezing like we are in NC.
