Spring Is In The Air!!! YEAH!

Welcome Spring and HAPPY EASTER to you all! Just a little fun for today 'cause it's spring and it's going to be in the 60's today around here. Wooo HOOOOOOO
The picture above is yours truly celebrating her 2nd Easter. I was born on Easter Sunday and as word has it, the nurses thought I should be named Bunny!!! Thank goodness mom was knocked out enough that it didn't stick. :)
Below is a pic of the wonderful fingerless gloves I received from Marsha for my early birthday gift. Aren't these the BEST? And talk about talent, she's got it. Below is an update on that blue cooshy baby blanket. Tyger loves this one, can you tell?


And those who are local and have a little age under their belts will know what great things came in Miller & Paine boxes - good quality clothing and merchandise. M&P is gone now, but their cinnamon rolls (to die for) are still in existance and sold in local eateries. Do you believe I still have one of their boxes? Tyger was impressed. He's going to hang on to this treasure.But look at the treasures mom stashed in this box that I've shelved for over 20 years. This is the sweater set she made for me as a baby. Now I'm not sure if it was white or not in the beginning, but her knitting workmanship was outstanding. Talk about perfectionism, she was the queen, and yes I am the princess. :)

HAPPY EASTER!!!!!!!!

Long Day, But Good Stuff

Quick update - photos to follow maybe Sunday :)

1. I won a contest through the EtsyKnitters group - free skein of yarn, handmade right from the UK. I never win ANYTHING! Unreal.
2. Sold 2 patterns on Etsy today - still can't believe that one either.
3. Made plans to have DD#2 spend 24 hours at our house with her kids while her hubby is out of town this weekend. We both need a huge break from stress (business) and this is the perfect diversion.
4. The BIG HUNT is tomorrow at our church. It's huge. Usually attracts about 2,000 little egg hunters and the grandkids love it. So we get to enjoy 3 of the grands tomorrow and watch and photo them 'hunting' for eggs. Yep, we get to enjoy the real #1's in our lives, too. Their lovely moms. The oldest grand is getting into her social life and has a party to attend at the same time her age group hunt happens, so she had to make a decision. She's getting so old. I see her mom in her, and it brings tears of joy to my eyes at her little person dedication to friendships and relationships.
5. Had a bride come in for her invites this afternoon and mentioned that "Lily Kathryn Designs" was becoming a hot topic at her medical clinic where she is a nurse. Yep, LKD is our DD#1. Word is spreading, she is getting her name out there. I hope she is ready for the splash she will make in the world with her bags and diaper bags. As usual, please check out the link to the left to see her beautiful work, with MORE to come!
