TGIF........

It's been one helluva week......really busy at school....studying to take the RPR in November.........YIKES!

Just wanted to let my SYNO Pal know, I did receive her yarn and fragrant lotion.......thanks......I snuck in a little time to start your scarf........pictures to come soon.

Also, Meg I love your creativity...........my scarf may not want to come back to boring Florida.....I know I wouldn't.....she looks like she's enjoying herself. BTW, she's beautiful!!!!

Off to the airport to pick up my DH, he's been away all week on business.....can't wait to see him.

HAVE A FUN WEEKEND! :0)

My first sweater......


I love it.....and her! It was easier than what I had anticipated. The pattern is from Suss Cousins' Hollywood Knits Style, Cozy Cardigan(that she gave me for christmas)....I used Cascade 220 (I gave my mom the ball band, so I don't remember the color) I think she really, really liked it. She wore it while I was there. A 100% wool sweater in the middle of July in Texas? Only a mother would do that. I want to make one for me too.

Not much knitting going on this week, as I've been really busy with school. I did start this scarf for my mom also.....it's silk yarn called Galaxy Twist from Tilli Tomas that I bought from Yarns 2 Ewe while I was back in Texas visiting. I really like it.......I may just keep it for myself......Just a little joke mom....only kidding! If you ever have a chance, you should go to Y2E.....they have a fabulous yarn selection, and the owner Wendy is really nice.

My Tuesday night knitting group is making a Linus Project Blanket. We are to knit three 9" squares each. I hope to start those this week. Also, I hope to get the yarn for my SYNO scarf soon.

Parker's 4 months today..........

My nephew turned 4 months old today.
He's the cutest thing ever. He's my first nephew and the first grandchild (probably the only) Need I say more.



Do you think we are crazy about him? Parker faces from left to right me, a picture, my mom, and my brother, and the infamous Parker has the wip umbilical cord cap on. We had soooooo much fun taking these pictures. I have the best family ever!!

Thanks little man for skipping school and staying with Honey for a week.....I sure do love you!!
