Look Ma!! I'm Knitting!

Look what I picked up today! My knitting needles, LOL!! I've been down with a stomach bug for 24 hours now and needed something simple to work on while laying around on the couch. I decided to make a fuzzy scarf for one of Heather's classmates. Her birthday party is tomorrow and since I know the girl from volunteering in the classroom, I knew she would like a fuzzy scarf! I've seen her wearing one....and asked her about it...and she said it was her mom's. So I thought she could use one of her own!! This week I asked her what her favorite color was and she said dark blue. Luckily I just happened to have some fuzzy dark blue yarn in my stash! And since fuzzy yarn is easier to knit than crochet, plus I only had one skien and knitting uses less yarn, I decided to knit it. Looks like I'll be sitting around on the couch a little longer and working on it.

Keep all the great names coming for my contest and I really hope none of you get this nasty stomach bug!

My Secret Sister ROCKS!!

Ok, so at my local MOPS group we have Secret Sisters who give us small gifts thoughout the year. Well, usually I get the standard candles and bath soaps, but this year my sister ROCKS!! Look at this box of goodies I found at the table today! Whooo Hoooo!!

There are lots of goodies for making cookies including sprinkles (Heather will LOVE these!), cookie cutters, decorating stuff and even a new magazine!

Also, there were TONS of scrapbooking supplies including two small books!! OH MAN!!! Now, I don't usually scrapbook....1~beacause all my photos are now digital and 2~I don't have the time with all the other crafts that I do, LOL!! But she made it so easy on me~! There are tons of ribbons, pens, stickers, and all kinds of thigs! This is going to be so much fun!!!

So, whoever you are dear sis, I hope you read my blog and I want you to know that you ROCK!!! I can't wait to get started! THANK YOU SO MUCH!! You totally made my day! All I can say is next time....how about some yarn?? LOL!
