Vacation Travel

I have been planning a trip to Savannah, Georgia to visit with my dearest girlfriend for several months now.  Tomorrow is the day we are off on our cross-country trip.  We will be driving from here clear to Savannah, with a stop in Dayton, Tennessee to visit with my parents, sisters,nieces and nephew.  I am so excited.  Kyle and Tommi have graciously agreed to stay at the house and take care of Jasper, Maggie (my four-legged furry kids), MK (Kyle's bearded dragon that runs free around the house) and the goldfish (that let you pet them if you stick your hand in the water).

I will post our adventures and what knitting projects I am working on as we go.  I am currently working on a baby hat.  I am also taking the yarn and pattern for the Hitchhiker pattern by Martina Behm.  My trusty laptop and Nook are also getting packed in the car for this trip. 

New seasons

Well, it is the beginning of the autumn season and we still have very warm temperatures here.  While it is still in the high 80's and low 90's I am still working on my Christmas presents for my nieces and nephews.  In fact I have a new niece that was just born on September 6th.  She looks adorable and I cannot wait to meet her next month when I go visit my parent in the lush green state of Tennessee.

As we begin this wonderful season  I also get to enjoy the fact that my daughter will be turning 21 tomorrow and she is so excited.

I am also working on a few projects that I will be donating to a local event that is taking place here in lovely Kingman on October 20th at the Eagles Club called "A Hair Extravaganza: Honoring Woman Affected by Cancer".  This event is being put on by Get Wiggy With It and Your Cut Above the Rest.  I was going to assist with the event however, I will be out of town visiting my parents.  I cannot wait to hear how successful it was once I return to town.

It has been ages

I know that it has been ages since my last post.  Life has definitely gotten in the way over the past year.  However I am back and will add to my blog on a regular basis.

What am I working on now.  Well I decided that I did not want a repeat of the holiday season last year when I started my Christmas presents the weekend of Thanksgiving and still had to figure out what I was going to make and make sure that they were sent out and on time for Christmas morning.

I have started my gift making early and I already have four gifts done.  Now I only have about 12 more to do.
