Almost Spring!

 Hey everyone....it is almost Spring....just 3 more weeks!  


I hope yall have had a great couple of weeks....I had a Birthday...the Big 50...YIKES!


Darlene got me the most amazing yarn....it is the yarn to make the Satellite shawl by Andrea Mowry....this yarn is like knitting with a hand spun cloud!  Thank you Darlene!





I also got the new Lykke needles in Copper that are 5"



Paige and Kody had a great Valentine's Day and Bizz, Sam and Paige all went to the Rodeo....I love these people!





I was headed to the gym last Suday and saw this in front of my car....That morning, Kody took Antonio to a car show and when he came back to my house later that day he said, "Grandma, guess who I saw at the Car Show?........THE DOG!"  so clearly this guy and his amazing companion were in town for the car show!



I had a fabulous birthday dinner with my family but failed to snap a single picture....my daddy got us 5 lbs of King Crab legs, and steak, along with potatoes and asparagus.....However, I do have a picture of the gorgeous flowers Kody and Paige got me (they also got me some running shoes but they have not been delivered yet).




My parents got me some leggings and shirts and my sister and brother in law got me some gorgeous James Avery earrings.






Then yesterday, my nephew, Sean, was Confirmed to Catholicism and after the ceremony we all went to a fabulous lunch.....this time at the end I said, "Hey, we need a picture!"



I made some socks for Paige...these tubes were cranked by Elizabeth...I really need to get to cranking on my own machine!



I finished the February portion of my monthly blanket



and lastly I got my windows installed....I am not putting my blinds back up (you can see them in the background outside on the table), but instead I am putting in curtains....so this makes me realize I really need to finish painting the walls that I have ignored for months!




That is all I've got...Have a great week everyone and Happy Happy Happy Knitting!

I finished one more of Trenton's hats....I still have 2 more to go



I ordered yarn for a new sweater for me and for another Boxy Cape....Elizabeth made a sweater with this yarn and it feels amazing so I had to buy some....it is cotton and wool...feels SOOOOO GOOD!  It is Berroco Vibe

Happy Year of the Tiger!

 Happy Chinese New Year.....it is the year of the Tiger, so I am praying the Bengals Win the Super Bowl this weekend!  Go Bengals!!




So a couple of weekends ago, I got to watch two of my grandkids I don't see very often.  Little Mario and Alexxis....these are my step son, Mario's kids.





My other grand kids got a new bunny!


Paige and her friends went out last weekend and they took a great picture....I love these kiddos.




I joined a new gym with Bizzle.....


I have a picture above of Alexxis with Purl....so I have to add a picture of Jackson too....LOL!



As far as knitting, I have been working on my honey cowl with the handspun yarn Melissa made me.







I also pulled out my old (like from 2018) hitofude....I am so close to finishing this.




and I have been working on one of Trenton's hats.



That is all I have for these last couple of weeks......Have a great week y'all!
