It's a Hat Christmas!!

I did it! Well almost. This year almost everyone got a knitted hat from me. I'm still working on Alix's hat, but I have already made her 2. :)
I barely finished all the hats on time but I did it. Brandon's was the last to be finished on Christmas Eve.
Everyone seemed to enjoy the gifts. Some may be too big, but they're original :P
Here's a family photo of everyone sporting their new hats. Alix is wearing one that I had originally intended for my brother, but it turned out a bit too small. Brandon was lucky enough to win the extra hat.

Alix's First Birthday!


Yesterday was Alix's first birthday. Her mom and dad had a nice little party for her in the afternoon. Alix got some really nice jewelry and some cool new toys. Alix did seem to like Great Grandma's wrapping paper the best though :)

Alix was not a big fan of her birthday cake. She got pretty upset when we put her hands in the cake. She doesn't like to get dirty. She liked eating her cake with a spoon though.

Hard to believe that Christmas is only days away. I don't feel like the Grinch, but I don't really care too much for the holiday. My mood seems to get worse each year. I miss Jay and our life together and the holidays make me miss him more.

Oh, well.
Hope you all have a nice holiday.

A Pack of Wheel Watchers :)

Ok, so I have to admit that I am a BIG fan of Wheel of Fortune. I love the show. I've watched it since the beginning. Last year when I went out to California with my Grandma I made sure we attended a taping of WOF! It was GREAT! Grandma really enjoyed it too. So this week is Pet Lovers Week on WOF and I decided that I need to get a picture of my girlz watching the Wheel. So here is their picture. I haven't sent it to WOF yet, but I am happy just to have proof that they love WOF as much as I do :)



My girlz humor me so!

On the knitting front. I am still on my hat trip, although progress has slowed down. I'm afraid that the hat I have made for my brother is probably too small for his head, so I'm making him a different one. I'm sure that the smaller hat will find a home with someone in my family.

I am also working on an Einstein jacket for Alix. And by "working" I mean that I take it to knitting with me on Thursday nights. I haven't gotten much done in a while.

Not for sure what I've been doing with my time, because I am not getting ready for Christmas either. I'm really not in the mood for Christmas. About the only thing that I am even excited for this Christmas is seeing Alix enjoy her 1st real Christmas. Last year she was only 5 days old. I don't think that really counts.

Agility is going really well with Brindi and Cosmo. Both of them are enjoying the cooler weather. Brindi is really doing good. And Cosmo is starting to get some focus too. I really enjoy our weekly classes.
Hope you all have a nice weekend.
I am going to see Santa with Alix tomorrow. That should be entertaining.
