happy happy thanksgiving!

piling up

I now have received hats and mittens for my whole class! I am now working on hats for our buddy kindergarten class. I am planning on handing out the wonderful warm goodies just before Christmas break...that gives you knitters a few more weeks!
thank you thank you...
mom, always
Michiline,

thank you

and speaking of knitting - in between hats I have been working on a wrap for myself. It has been on (and off and on again) my needles fow quite sometime now and am happy, so happy to have a finished product.

just "busy" having fun

I realize I haven't have time to update the blog in a while. I think it was about 2 years ago I remember having a conversation with Jeff about how busy life got all of a sudden. It had made a noticeable jump in pace. And now I think we are just figuring out that that is just how it is...and it's not slowing down anytime soon!
So instead of using the excuse that "it's just too busy" I am trying to appreciate the down time and savor it a bit. The day I think we have masted is Sundays. It is the only day off the family has together and we are trying to make the most of them...even if that means NOT doing anything.
Here is a glimpse of the last few Sundays.

Today was sledding and hot chocolate without any photos!
Happy Sunday.

Fall Break

This past week was my fall break. I had the entire week off to enjoy...my parents visiting,a trip to the pumpkin patch, a 2 foot snow storm, 2 snow days for the kids, 2 Halloween parties at school and Halloween.
