Week in Review.........

Trenton before Trick or Treating:
Devin at school parade:

It was a good, fast week that ended with Halloween and Trick or Treating. We had parties at school on Friday and then came home for a couple of hours and went out door to door. The weather here was absolutely perfect. It was 70 degrees, no wind (in Kansas?) The boys made it for at least over an hour and came home with some heavy bags. They dumped it out on the floor and made a couple of piles: Good, Dad's, & giveaway. LOL.

I finished the baby blanket that I have been working on since Sept. I frogged the border twice. The first time I started with the wrong stitch and the next time it was too tight and made the blanket pucker all the way around. Now I am pleased with the result and will actually give it to the 3rd grade teacher in our building this coming week at her shower.

The pattern is from the 2008 365 Days of Crochet calendar and its Nov. 24th.

One more note, I completed and sold the other shrug and made a tidy little profit.

Kaelyn's blankie

The music teacher in our building just had a new granddaughter and I made this for her. She has already had a rough start with some health issues, so I worked in prayers every round. She seems to be getting better, so when I give this to her Nana on Monday I hope it will be a happy, snuggle blankie for her. I used Caron SS and it is cozy!




Oh and BTW, sandal "A" won the opinion poll. I like it best too. Thanks gals! Should I post my new work blouses too? LOL..JK!!!!
