Ok, I admit, not the most seasonally appropriate project. But I do hate summer knits. And it was a tiny bit chilly last night, with all the wind. I bet you wished you had nice wool mittens to wear, right?
And you can't see it but the yarn has a sparkle strand in it. A little sparkle sparkle, that's what I'm talking about.
I don't have any cute pics of the kids today. But look I have plants!
These Lily of the Valley are transplants from my dad's garden. They came out of nowhere this year--one minute I was thinking they didn't make it through the winter and the next minute they look like that.
I was so excited to see a jack-in-the-pulpit in the fairy garden! It's from a woodland mix at the Fair last year.
The planter on the front porch turned out nice, don't you think? I used to spend all my time in the garden store resisting pink. I don't know why. Now, I pink it up. If I ever opened a garden store, I would put all the flowers in rainbow order. Wouldn't that be nicer?
I just made this today, a No Soliciting rock on the front porch, which I throw at you if you come try to sell something. And yes that includes scouts. Because I'm a scrooge like that. BAAAAHHHH HUMBUG.
I made this due to an incident last night, when someone rang the bell while I was putting the kids to bed. Except I wasn't doing very well putting the kids to bed--Bella was naked and Emily was running around, and so Emily runs to the door by herself and says, "HI. Bella NUDIE. I want a sucker!" and I can hear the person saying, "Is your mommy home?" and that's when I find out I'm not above sending nude Bella out to say I'm in fact NOT home. Hence the rock.
Brent voted for this sign instead.
