im back

Ok, so I know I have been slacking on here but.. ever since my camera has been broken I have been so bummed that I cant load pictures. I have compleated many knittin gprojects and cant show them off. AHHH. I made a dino for Gavin for x-mas, a tank for lily, a skirt for lily, a present for dad, and a hat for myself. all since november 8th wow. 2 days ago I got invited to join ravlery and have been glued to it. What a wonderful knitting world it is! My knitting list has grown pages I cant knit fast enough.

On to another subject... Today we wrote our letters to santa. Gavin asked for a trumpet, guitar, and drums. ( he loves music) so he is going to get all of those things because he is spoiled. I found the perfect trumpet and we are getting the new guitar because his other one broke and for some reason he just does not like the electric as much ( by the way he is only 2 3/4 years old).
I dident know what Lily wanted shes so young. I worte she wanted a doll made by the elves because she dident want it made in china. lol. I hope santa gets a laugh there. Anyway we sealed them and walked to the mail box and the kids put them in the slot. They should be thrilled when they get letters back!

Oh my it is 1 am i should go to bed. I just felt like I should post something since its been awhile.

anger

I dont know if anger is the right feeling. Justin said "he's just a kid, kids do that stuff" and I know they do but now we have to replace my camera AGAIN because of him. The first one he threw at the cabnet, this time.... in the dish water. Everything went down hill from their. Lily cried about everything nonstop for about an hour and a half. Mostley because she kept climbing on things and I had to take them away. Gavin kept dumping out the toy bins making a huge mess because he was pretending they were buildings in his make believe car town. Then Lily pulled off her diper somehow and got her poo everywhere. Needless to say i was reading their bedtime story at 7:20. It was a stressful night. As for the camera, it wont even turn on. I hope I can at least salvage the memory card so we dont have to buy a new one of those too. I did load all the pictures on my pc last night so I did not lose anything, thats one good thing that came out of it. So I guess now im going camera searching. Even though Im a bit ticked and we dont really have the money (at all) for a new camera I really need one and I'm kinda excited to get a new one. Ug I feel a little better after writing this down. I think now ill waste some time looking at craft blogs and knitting patterns. ahhh that will relax me.

their finished




Their finished are'nt the pretty. lol


I just have to add this picture of Gavin his imagination has been soring latley and it is so amazing to watch.

MY FIRST SOCK!!!!



I am so excited. I finally made a sock. I was so nervous about knitting a scok because of its complexity I tired three times to make this sock from a pattern on lion brand. I got the yarn and was going to make tons for the kids to wear well after 3 attempts i gave up and used silver socks pattern! And I got it! these are the coolest most comfortable socks ever I ended up using the yarn that was supposed to be for the kids socks. Looks like I will have to order more!!! i cant wait to do the other one!
