Valentine's Day in January

Hey everyone.  How are you?  I am well.  Lupe continues to spoil me and gave me almost all my valentine's presents early.  I love them all!  

I got Lupe a ridiculously funny sponge holder he saw and said he wanted.

I have made 2 more hats.....these are for me since I did not finish them in time for Darlene's package to get sent.

 

Lupe has been bringing home some great Monster drinks and I have been trying some of the sugar free ones.

Lupe had an appointment for a consultation for Lasik surgery and his surgery is scheduled for this coming Friday....I am so excited for him, I still remember how great it was when I got it done 22 years ago.

On a sad note, a well known lace designer lost her husband suddenly and unexpectedly, so we are having a KAL in the  KALMYO group.  I have decided to try Tango Nuevo....I am enjoying it, but lace is harder for me, so I am not very fast at it.

My sister has requested some more Ballband Dishcloths...so I have started some for her, and also plan on making some for my mom and myself.  Here is what I have so far.

That is all I have this week...besides some adorable pics of Jackson sneaking in the bed for a nap.....LOL!

Have a great week!

Happy Happy Happy Knitting!

Merry Knitmas!!

 Hey everyone!  Merry Knitmas! Do you have all your knitting for Christmas completed?

Well, I do not.....I have been making my ornaments and I took one to Ped this past Friday.

He sent me a pic of it on his tree!

And here are some words of wisdom from Sam's kids (she usually sees Ped before me) on Ped's board

I finished the 2nd hat which is for Lupe

Then, Lupe went to get his hair cut this past week and his barber's son had his 8th birthday yesterday so he texted me and asked if I could make him a hat.....so viola!

But I am behind on my ornaments for the neighbors...I am about 1 1/4 behind.

I am also behind on my advents (except my tea one)...I need to knit the 17th and forward on my London Wrap, and I am still only through day 6 on my Grayscale Pop.

I have been making some cookies this week....I guess I had a sweet tooth but it sure would be nice if they made recipes for just 2 cookies....LOL!

Elizabeth had our knitting girls christmas party this past Sunday.....her new home is just gorgeous and it was great seeing all my knitting friends.

I got lots of amazing gifts from friends

and my fiber fairy was Melissa and she got me the most amazing hand made Longhorn mug

I also got a fabulous picture of Mia

and here are my babies taking a nap (on my bed....don't tell Lupe....LOL!)

and Lupe got a surprise gift from Coca Cola

Lastly.....I can finally show you my advent stole that I test knit......it is gorgeous and already in Darlene's hands....thankfully, she loves it and all the items I knit for her.

Well, that is all I have.....I hope you have a fabulous Christmas!!

Happy Happy Happy Knitting!
