So this is Fifty-One!

 Hey yall.....I have made it to another birthday....this is fifty-one....and while I know that is 'young', but do I feel old some days....but I digress.  

I had a fabulous birthday hanging out with Antonio....I was supposed to go bowling with Paige, Kody and Antonio....but Paige went out with the girls the night before to the rodeo and was not feeling her best...so I decided to postpone till this week...I am actually more excited that she had fun with Sam and Bizz!  Here are my girls:



This week Antonio wanted to make MORE strawberries so we got hydroponic ones....these are huge!



He also got these ridiculously hot cheese puffs!


And we finished one puzzle


I ordered another puzzle that is going to look like this....at least I hope it makes it to me.  I have ordered this puzzle once already and it was delivered to Massachusetts...go figure!



I finished Paige's socks


I also pulled out an OLD wip (a blanket for Paige) where I make 20 squares...these squares have tons of cables so it take a lot of thinking power...but maybe one day I will have it done


I also worked on my christmas yarn socks....I have never made socks with this long a cuff, but I want to use ALL this yarn and show the gradient so I am going with a super long cuff!


I got some yarn in to make those slippers Paulette made for Tone and I....


Oh, and since it was my birthday....I went to an amazing dinner last night, where I managed to not get a single picture.....my parents got me another pair of Hoka Shoes (Paige got me my first pair last year and I love them).



Erich and Devinne, Erich's girlfriend, got me some tea and the greatest notebook


And Paige is taking me bowling this week (hopefully I remember to get a picture)!  It was a fabulous birthday!  Thank you for all the amazing messages and well wishes!


That is all I have ...have a great week




Happy Happy Happy Knitting!

It sure has been a while!

 Hey everyone....I feel like it has been forever since I posted....and I think it has.....oh well, I am just doing the best I can.


I have loads of pics and I'll try to keep the words to a minimum


Antonio's first Jr PGA Golf Tournament!



Look at this swing!

Darlene finished Paige's wallaby......but Paige has not modeled it yet (she is in South Padre Island...pics of that soon).







I finished the Savvy Skeins boots and spurs socks.....2 pair!




Darlene talked me into doing a new blanket with her.  I had 3 colors, but needed to order 2 more....there will be 20 squares (4 squares of each 5 colors)






Square 1
Square 4

I finished the Winterberry KAL


I got a signed book set from my author friend, Maggie Cole.  This series of her books (Behind Closed Doors Series) was dedicated to me and another alpha reader, Jenifer Hughes!  If you like steamy romance, check her out!




Darlene's son, Casey (@7y_leather on Instagram) made me some gorgeous hook and scissor cases!  I love them.....He does great work....check him out here.


A lady I went to high school with reached out to me to give me a bunch of yarn....and Jax has to get right in the middle of it!



Elizabeth, Melissa and I podcasted this past weekend...you can check it out below!



and finally Paige's South Padre Island Vacation with Bizz and Sam and the kids (all pics stolen from Instagram or FB....LOL!)














Have a great week everyone!
