Bike MS This past weekend was Bike MS, a 150 mile bike ride from Frisco to Fort Worth. To say it was eventful is an understatement! lol First of all, the City of Fort Worth cancelled all outdoor public gatherings...

Sea World Orlando Today was our Sea World day during our Florida vacation. It was chilly, but sunny, so very nice. We didn't get too cold until the sun started going down in the evening. We started with the sting ray...

I finished a fun project this week. A new bag! :o) Jack and I were in a yarn store recently and they’d just gotten in some new yarn… so new it was still in the manufacturer’s shipping bag!

I wanted to make a medium size bag for me to use as a purse or whatever. It’s a knock off of the booga bag pattern. The straps are I-cord. I made the I-cord long enough for shoulder straps. I really like how it turned out, but I did learn that making I-cord, while easy, is very boring!! lol

Nothing really new to report this week. I participated in The Scrapbook Pad’s garage sale yesterday. I did ok money-wise, but more importantly, I got rid of a TON of stuff! I took five boxes full and came home with one partially full. Woo hoo!!! Have to move out some scrapbooking stuff to make room for new yarn stuff! lol Definitely not giving up scrapbooking though!

Have a wonderful week!

P.S. The answer to the question in the last post…. 33. 34 if you include the T-shirt she had on yesterday that said… of course… “Seriously.”

Seriously, I have a challenge for you. Seriously. Go (seriously) to my friend Heather’s blog (click here), seriously. And seriously count how many time she uses the word seriously on the front page. Seriously. If you guess right, I’ll seriously send you a surprise. Seriously.

Seriously get seriously counting seriously! LOL

(Love ya chica!)

So I’ve had this itch to knit baby stuff, but Jack says it’s bad luck. So I’m knitting baby stuff… just not for me! :o) Here’s my first completed project… a baby cap. There’s room for improvement, but I’m pretty happy with it! It, and all the others I’m planning on knitting, will be donated to Baylor’s maternity ward. It’s just a small way that I can give back to a place, and the people, that did so much for Jack after his accident.

Edited: Not sure why the photos aren’t showing. I’ll keep working on it. Sorry! It’s pink if that helps! :o)

Bluebonnets, Bunnies and… SNOW?!?!

My brother and his family were in town this weekend for Easter, so we decided to do the annual bluebonnet pictures on Saturday.

We found a great patch of bluebonnets, but there was one problem! It was 40 degrees outside, and SNOWING!! So the girls huddled up for the group photo, and while we took the individual ones, the other two were huddled under a blanket with mom and Grammy! Sheer craziness!


This one was a little… shall we say… moody. :o)

This one never seems to take a bad photo!

And when this one gave me a real smile, it was gorgeous! Such cute girls!

This one was Sunday morning after church. My sister in law made their dresses, but with the chilly temps, there was a mad dash for matching sweaters on Friday!


The beautiful family.


And the dash for the egg hunt!

Sorry it’s been so quiet lately… just busy, busy, busy. Jack had an appointment with Dr. Kelton today (the plastic surgeon, remember him? lol). He basically cleared Jack and said we don’t have to go back unless something goes wrong. Woo hoo! No more trips to Baylor! (Not that we don’t love the place, but you know how it goes!)

Other than that, I’m just knitting away. I’m working on a pastel bag for myself, then I’m going to start knitting baby caps for donation to a local hospital. Just want to do something to give something back.

Oh, congratulations to my buddy Heather and her hubby on their new house! So excited for them!
