Been really busy with projects and grandchildren. Had the big birthday party on the 21st. Made a scarf and a purse since then now i got to get ready to move into a new home.. My blog is under constructions that is why its looking wierd at the moment my graphic psp guru is sooooooooooooo
Here is my first project i was working on the scarf. I was using the yarn bee even tho i love the colors didnt like how it turned out so my knitting friend told me to use just the knit stitch instead of knit purl so im going to make a pink one for my niece in law birthday and a pink fat bottom purse.
As for purses this is my second project i was working that i finished.
And here is a finished project i didnt use bamboo because my daughter didnt want it but my next one im using it.

Here are the pink and muliticolor fat bottoms im making at the moment.

I got some pics of my grandaughter party its was much fun and she had a blast.
Tinkerbell was the theme it was so cute and the cake hmmm dont like cake much but this cake was good. So sweet and creamy infact i think i went into a sugar coma later that evening lol. They had pizza, ice cream and cake not bad for a rollar rink plus golf and skating and games and only 8 dollars per kids beats the other places we had a blast my grandaughter is on the right in this last pic that is her friend on the left. Here is a little something i came across its a Crochet Survival Kit

When in doubt or when problems arise,
reach for your survival kit.
It contains:

A LOLLIPOP.....to help you lick your stitch problems

A RUBBERBAND.....in case you run out of yarn and you just have
to crochet

A PAPER CLIP.....to use as a crochet hook in an emergency

A CARAMEL.....so you won't starve when you can't take time away
from crochet to eat

A PIN.....to help you pinpoint pattern problems

A PIECE OF YARN.....to help you tie up loose ends

AND.....

A PENNY.....so that you have enough "cents" to realize what
a valuable asset you are to other Crocheters!

Found some really good recipe site here is one i like it alot also try this one Mrs Jones it has alot of links to good recipe sites. Well its time to go have a good week..

Today is my Grandaughters Birthday Katelynn she is 6yrs old today she is my rock. Sunday we are having a big party at the rollar rink you know skateing, pizza, ice cream and cake she is going to have fun they even have golf. This picture is taken at chucky cheese omg it was crazy so loud i couldnt think but it was so much fun for the kids. Thats Katelynn in the monster truck.

Im almost done with scarf im also working on the hat that is almost done changing back and forth. My friends in Texas where i worked at says they are stuck at home with the ice storm how fun for them they could get caught up on things around the house no work ...Here is a picture that says HMMMMMMMMM??? lol

Well i need to put the scarf down and start on my I love kitchen swap i will make a potholder while watching American Idol soooo funny i hope they dont make to much fun of people sometimes it sad to watch.. I want to see more great singers than bad because they are just all there to be on Tv not to compete... i guess its frustrating weed out the bad from the good. Tonight we are having a ice storm ugh i hate them cant drive. I love this picture i grew up with Godzilla isnt this cute look getting ready to attack Japan heheheh. I think that is why i like Power Rangers because it being japanese stories. When my son was little i bought him a giant Godzilla and he played with it and slept with for years lol. We would watch the movies together that was good memories.Well thats all folks for the day i hope your safe from the storms and staying warm it would be great to have a fireplace right this moment i live around pines never run out of wood heheh.
hugs kat
