Christmas Tea & Knitting

As always, it's a mad dash to the finish!

My days seem to be filled with constant
knitting,

crocheting,

&

endless

Cups of Tea.

The house is finally decorated

and the tree is trimmed.

I have put the finishing touches on one project,

have another half done

and one more to start.

Phew!!!

I am trying hard to stay a step ahead of St. Nick.

Next Tuesday Scott & I will celebrate our

 30th  Wedding Anniversary.

:)))

We are leaving early Monday morning for a get away to a

Victorian Bed & Breakfast.

We will not be home until Thursday afternoon.

I am SO EXCITED!!!

My last little project will travel along with me.

It will take us about 3 hours to get where we are going.

Between the trip there and back I should come home

with all my

Christmas Knitting

finally done.

In the meantime,

may you all make it to your own finish line

{as I know we are all making the same mad dash!},

may you all stay warm and cozy

and most of all

stay full of good cheer

as you enjoy this magical season.

Be Blessed,

Danette



A New Little Monkey

Towards the end of May

we will have a new little monkey

in the family.

My sweet daughter Chelsea

is expecting her second baby.

She went shopping yesterday for this adorable outfit.

As it turns out we are going to have a

Grandson!!!

:)))

We are

SO VERY EXCITED!

Big Sister Gabby

{who, as you can see, is Grammy's biggest kitchen helper}

can hardly wait for her

Baby Brother

to enter the world.

She will be 7 just a few weeks before he is born.

They grow up fast, don't they?!

Ahhh...Grandchildren....what a BLESSING.

Crochet Craziness

Hello Friends!

I hope you are all feeling

fat

&

sassy

{from the recent day of feasting}

and full of

Holiday Cheer.

We had a lovely Thanksgiving here.

In the midst of it all I have entered into some kind of

Crochet Craziness!

Just last week I told a friend

"I have decided to give myself a break this Christmas.

I am not making many gifts this year."

Well....

somehow just after that I went nuts again!

I have crocheted 11

{that's right ~ I said eleven}

scarves in 9 days time.

My hook is already digging into another one

and there are at least 3 more I purchased new yarn for.

Many of them are infinity scarves.
They are done in
different yarns,
different weights,
different colors...
Fa~la~la~la~la~la~la~la~la!!!

Two of them, so far, are straight scarves.

Most are for Christmas gifts,

but this one,

plus a couple of the infinity scarves,

are for sale on my

Etsy Shop

I sure hope there are a lot of lovely ladies

on my Christmas list

who are in need of a new scarf!

Because I seem to have a few on hand :)))

Happy Day to You All!
