Bob and I took a little walk to a place I call Rat Haven. I love to take the puppies there to hunt for mice and rats. I was a little muddy but the pups had a good time. We hit the jack pot today in an old dish washer. Raven got in the dish washer first and then Mute jumped in. I'm sooooo ready for hunting season to start! Bring on the FUR :)

Things I have been working on

Stocking caps,blankies and scarfs

My Afhgan now

My Afghan being born

Well I have been passing the time at night crocheting. I must say I really do enjoy it. I have a client that makes baby afghans and sends them to the children hospitals. I made 3 of them and I hope they keep little babies warm this winter. My afghan I started on a few months back has grown very large. It's 9 feet long and 5 foot wide. I have made the kids stocking caps (Brett's the only one that wears his). But the best of all my nephew wears his stocking cap all the time. That makes me smile and warms my heart! I'm working on some x-mas stuff (man it's time for that already) I would really like to learn how to make granny squares. I bought a set of looms and they are fun also. There are so many things you can make with the looms. I'm going to take a class on knitting. Will see if I like that as much as I like crocheting. Thanks Roberta for teaching an old dog a new trick!

Cake and IceCream

The Family

Money

Mine is Red

We ate all the cake so no picture this one will have to do

Garrett, Mom and Matt

Today my mother-in law (mom) and Bob Sr. (dad) and Jeniffer,Garrett and Matt came to wish me a happy birthday. Mom made me a wonderful cake and birthday money! I got to spend some time Saturday with Garrett and Jeniffer at the Pumpkin Patch. I almost bought a purse but I could hear Bob in the back ground tell me that the basement was full of them and I really don't need another one. That's his opinion! Like my granny used to say you can never have to many panties or purses! Man I miss that lady:) Garrett and I ate popcorn and got to see a few friends from H-town that had a booth there. Garrett makes me laugh. What a special kid. Every time I see him I cant believe the changes he has made. When he came to my house today, he and I and mom were in the kitchen looking at yarn. I asked if he would like a stocking cap? Sure he said. I let him pick out the one he liked. It was made of wool and bright colors. He wore it the hole time he was here. Bob took everyone on a ride on the Razor except grandma & grandpa. We had cake and ice cream and Garrett make sure they sang me the birthday song (thanks Garrett, I needed that). My mom sent me a Kitchen Aid mixer (red) for my birthday. Now I can quit trying to win them on the Pioneer Woman. Bob and I made pancakes with it this morning. My birthday is not until Tuesday, but I must say today felt just like my birthday. Thanks ya'll for making me a part of your family!!! Oh, I almost forgot. I did get a camera from myself and Bob. :))))))
