Happy Birthday Sam

My oldest turned 16 yesterday. Kind of surprising to me as I don't feel old enough to have a 16 year old. Since he was under the weather, I didn't get a picture of him but check out this picture from last weekend.




These are the socks for the Sock a Month challenge and for Knit for your Man in May on the She-Knits group on Ravelry. I knit them for Sam. He wants another pair now.

End of Year Madness

It is always the same, yet, I never seem to be prepared for the end of year activities at school. Each year I try to be organized, I try to be stress free - well, I will keep trying.

This weekend - S headed to prom, M - Confirmation, Perfect Attendance Concert for D's work. In-laws visiting, S's art show at school, M's band concert, and S's band banquet. Are you tired yet?

I am getting some knitting done, and even went to a new Knitting Group Tuesday night at Panera. I had a wonderful time. Any FO's? No, too many projects on the needles so everything is progressing but not finished. Hopefully next week I will be able to show pics of FO's.

Spring, finally

It is finally spring here in Kentucky.
The lilacs are so fragrant, Tattoo and I enjoyed sitting outside today while I read.

Alpaca YAY

Today my friend and I visited Seldom Scene Farm in Frankfort for shearing day. We had such a great time. I will go back. We helped bag the fleeces, I held a little Crea as a shunt and stitches were removed from its neck. I helped with the micro chip implanting. These guys are just too cute and gentle. Thanks Lindy for allowing us to come help out!

A quick note

D has been in Japan for 3 weeks. He will be home on Wed. I am thrilled. 3 weeks is just a little too long for me. The stories he has told have been fantastic and I know he has had a great time.

I have accomplished very little knitting while he was gone, although I did get some scrapping done with my cousin A on Friday night. I had the best time.

The only knitting completed - A tricorn hat for M. He plays Alexander Hamilton today in a Mock Duel at school.

Red Leather

Check out the beautiful new couch. I have been wanting this couch for ages. Looks so pretty in my living room. And the red matches my fireplace.
