Heart Warming Holidays
I know, I know, I've been gone WAY too long! Thanks for being patient and hanging around, I do appreciate it.
So with the holidays and a birth and visits and trying to knit for everyone and their sister/brother I thought I'd catch you up on what my season has been about.
My DD and her boyfriend came to visit for Christmas, YAY! I HAD to take them to some of the best eateries in town that they don't have up North like Mellow Mushroom and the OK Cafe (yum!). Then I topped it off with a Coca-Cola Ham for Christmas dinner. I love adding a few pounds on her with loving cooking LOL She appreciates it but not the workouts she has to do when she goes home.
Now to balance out those calories we went to the Georgia Aquarium and walked/gawked thru all the wonders.
I had many favorites but the Beluga whale and the sea lions deserved some film time.
And what truly makes the holiday special? Why family and friends of course! DD got to meet BFF Jill...looks like they hit it off, don't you think?
We had lunch with some of the Snarkys and it was a blast with great food and lots of laughs!
And if you think I've forgotten to post my knitting accomplishments, think again. Here are a few things I've finished (or am close to finishing) for the season.
Here's BFF Jill in her Baby Bolero from One Skein Projects. I also made a Basketweave Blanket for her that I just need to bind off.
And DD wanted something in her sorority colors so I made her my first hat. And what's the good of having a warm head if your feet are cold? I made her these worsted Horcrux socks that she just raves over.
I'm pretty pleased with the socks because it's my first stab at the Eye of Partridge heel and I'm tickled with how elegant and sturdy it is.
I have a few other things on the needles near completion but you'll have to wait to see those. Gotta keep you coming back somehow, right? :-)
Hope your Holidays were wonderful!
