Spring break....

is over. Gabby and I didn't go down to Florida. We just didn't have enough time this spring break and wouldn't of been able to do the things we wanted. Hopefully this summer we will be able to go, plus I am trying to get enough courage to fly to Idaho to see Heather and Bill. Grandma thinks that Gabby, me and her should go, we shall see.

The weather has been crazy here. I order some tomato plants by mail, they came and then I wasn't able to plant them because we were still having freezing weather at night. This passed Friday we had a real bad storm that caused us to loose power for 22 hours. What a pain that was, no internet, no lights, no tv, what were we to do.

We did go to the Georgia Aquarium on Thursday. It was nice, but not as great as some people have said it was. Plus it was so crowded that I was so anxious the whole time I was there, which is an awful feeling. But here are a few pictures of some of the fish we saw.



And here is a picture of a butterfly that I found in a head of broccoli that I got at Publix. It was rapped in plastic and stored in my refrigerator for 2 days and was still alive. What a miracle. We put him out in my herb boxes on the porch. But unfortunately he blew away when we had the storm on Friday, sorry Gabby.

Well I think I am back to posting on my blog again. I have been away and doing the Facebook thing, but I kinda think the whole Facebook thing is silly. I like bloggin better. I will have more post of my knitting and I just learned to spin fiber so I will have updates and pictures of that. So until then.....watch out for that Mother Nature because I think she is crazy lately.

My new favorite blog...

http://www.pattyannesplace.blogspot.com/

this is Patty's blog, I meet her at a spinning class at yes yarn. Patty and her friend Caron are some very talented ladies. Not sure why they were taking this spinning class because they seem to know what they were doing. I ordered a Golding spindle, like they had, and can't wait to receive it in the mail to try. Hopefully I will be able to post pictures of some beautiful yarn I make. Wish me luck.

New project bags....


I have new project bags made. I just love these new colors. My favorite part of these is the little notion bag that comes with them. I have put a zipper, two pockets inside, and a snap on the outside. And they fit perfectly in your purse for taking your projects with you everwhere. You can buy them here or at my local yarn shop...yes yarn. Just email me.


My older girls are coming in tomorrow, so I am excited about that. It will be a short visit but I will take anytime I can get with them.

Snow update...







so it is 6:00 p.m. and it is still snowing as of my last posting....Presley loves it....if it keeps up through the night I don't think there will be school and then Gabby will have to make up a day for a snow day....how stupid is that "Mother Nature". Gary says you must be PMSing...haha...

Who would of thought.....


that it would snow in South Carolina March 1st. Not us, that's for sure. I know you can't really see it from the pictures but those white pecks are snow. What the heck is Mother Nature doing anyway. Presley was fasinated with it though. Hopefully it won't get colder and stick and then they cancel school tomorrow, Gabby will be one unhappy teenager.
