Bill's Hat Update

Well, Bill just loves his hat. It fits, it's soft, warm. DESTROYED! Yup, Max was at it again. Bill got to wear the hat for 4 days. I was so furious, I couldn't look at the mess.

Bella's sweater is completed, it fits her well. She is just adorable in it. )Pictures to come at a later date. I love to visit Trish, the time flies so fast, no pictures were taken.

I haven't posted in awhile. Bad, bad, bad. So much going on for Christmas, not to mention the little ailments I've had. It sure has been stormy lately. Snow, snow, rain, ice, rain, ice, you get the picture. The driveway is like a skating pond. Smooth, shiney and slippery. Had to put sand down today to get to the vehicles.

Max had a blast with the wrapping paper. He helped open all the gifts and then started pulling the paper off ones we hadn't touched yet. If only he would help with the shopping.

I hooked dad up to an internet phone today. It is pretty cool, though we shut the ringer off on that phone. It kept ringing every 2 minutes but no one was there. At least he can make long distance calls for free now.

Christmas decorations

Christmas is fast approaching. The only decoration out is this tiny little tree on an end table.

Forgive the sideways shot, just pretend you're stretching your shoulders. lol

Bill's hat

Bill asked for a new hat. Any color as long as it's black!

Found some wool in the stash, Nature Spun. The label says worsted, but it seems rather thin.

Thought I'd try this Magic Loop technique some rave about. It's okay, still prefer two circulars though.

Bella's sweater is coming along. Turns out she was longer than I thought.

Just have to sew the seam and weave in a few loose ends.
