What Am I Up Too?

So today is a good day! I finished up the three dozen snowmen and have four snowmen to go on the two dozen.

Now onto what Jack has been up too! Still working on quilt squares.

And now Sylvia time. Here she is after a session of yarn wars.

And plenty of time for maxing out and napping!

Just A Short Post!

I am getting very close to finishing the large order of 3 dozen snowmen. 3 more bodies to crochet then 18 to do faces and hats and scarves. Then a couple small orders to finish. I have had about enough of that for awhile! LOL! I am also doing angels for a friend and hearts for another.

While doing our grocery shopping, I saw this interesting cotton yarn on the cheap. I was very curious to see what it would look like worked up so I brought it home! I rather think it is interesting and it will be a trivet for hot things in the kitchen.

I also found these cute cups on the cheap and had to have them!

Also this past week we found this curbside for trash pick up. It was a mirror but will be freshened up and a large cross stitch piece will go there.

We had a lovely moon with one of the planets this past week. This month's full moon will be a super moon!

And a lovely sunset as well.

Here now is Sylvia. She was upset I was not paying enough attention to her, so she threw herself down on the rug!

Then here she is just being her usual self!

Thanks for visiting! Blessings and huggles.

Just a fun little post!

First let me show you the lovely full moon that greeted us Monday morning. That blip in front of it is a bird flying past.

And I think this is a very cute building. It is a pediactric facility here in town.

I took a break long enough to stencil angels on my little cabinet. And I repainted the top of the coffee table. The white just didn't do it for me for some reason. I found a 50 cent bottle of cream with a tinge of yellow that I do like much better!

And lastly, Sylvia Joy in all her Sylvianess!

It's A Snowman Storm!

Not a lot to show you that is different. I have done about 3 dozen snowmen with three more dozen to go and still a dozen santas to finish. The latest batch finished!

I also took time to try out a super easy scrubbie pattern. I like it. It is double thick and a good size to fit well in your hand.

We were blessed with a good rain the other day. Still close to 8 inches short on rainfall but blessed for what we got.

Here is Miss sylvia and I saying hello. Well if she were more awake!

So intent on my crocheting she nearly fell off the sofa.

And just being Sylvia!

Stitching Thru The Cool Days!

We have been enjoying some wonderful coo days the last couple days. I did finish a dishcloth. Sorry the leaf is so hard to see. My camera is really worn out and tired. Hoping for a new one in the next year.

I also am doing some santa faces for a few people.

Most of my time will be spent on making snowmen. I have done two dozen and still have 86 snowmen to go! I can however do about 10-12 bodies a day. The hats and scarves take very little time and the faces I can manage about 7-10 a day. So I should be well done in time for Christmas for those who ordered them.

I have had a very good helper. Well sort of anyway! She stole a hat and played soccer all over the living room and slapped one snowman plum off the sofa!

Here is what they look like finished!

Heading down the pig trail!

Today is my Jack's 65rd birthday. I set up a surprise card shower for him using facebook. He has gotten 40 or more cards.

I baked him a mayo cake with cream cheese frosting and then we headed out for a drive down 16 highway known here as the pig trail. Perfect temperatures for a ride!

Found this lovely little church as well.

On the way home we stopped at Lake Sequoia to stretch our legs.

 And Miss sylvia was not impressed by our absence!

Lastly, look at this wonderful old house we passed. If only it could talk! I wonder about the laughter and tears it has seen.
