Today we had a Big Storm which made for a Beautiful Sunset this evening...


Yesterday there was a plane doing all crazy stunts over the Beach...I tried to catch some photos but he was moving soooooooo fast!!!

A Beautiful Day sitting and knitting on The Beach while Bob went for a Swim...



I know.. I know... Look at His Tan... I guess I don't tan so well.....

You Remember back some posts I was telling you about the Afghan we were making for the Manager at Paneras where we knit every Wednesday...... Well.. There were five of us..... Mary, Myself, Sharon, Sally and Marilyn who each knitted 4 squares of our choice and I just finished joining them and doing a Border around...
It is now Complete and we will give it to Yvonne this week.. I think we did an excellent job Girls!!!! :)

Another Hat for a Friend...

I took this photo in the Bright Sun to show off all its sparkles BUT they don't show up in the picture :(

The Odessa Hat.... There are beads knit into the spaces between the Spirals...
This was a Fun Knit!!!

It was a Beautiful Day at Jetty Park.....



Mr. Turtle came up for a Photoshoot!!!!


Bob is looking Out To Sea.... and The Pelicans are sitting on the end of The Jetty.. That tint dot in the sky over the ocean is a someone flying in a parachute being pulled by a boat.....

I made This Cozy Shawl for a Friend who needs some Comfort....

Made This Cute Sweater for Sami.... I used Cottonease so it is very soft and light weight for the Summer... Its all rib so it has alot of "give".... The Pattern can be ordered via Ravelry...

Love This Little Sweater... I added the Flowers and leaves and I made the buttons with the same yarn and a purl in the center... Then I went out and bought a Dress to go with it.. I found this Little Cutie at Macys and it looks Perfect with the Sweater.... So Clairs Easter Outfit is Complete!!!
I used Knitpicks Sockyarn to knit the Sweater and The Pattern is Sirdar Snuggly 1676

Hey Dad... Can We Have Some ?? :)

Sami is at her Friends Birthday Party wearing The TuTu That I knitted for her last year...

LOL.... Isn't she just TuTu Cute !!!! :)

Touring Around Town we stopped at The River and Bob caught His Dinner!!!! I fried the Little Guy up when we got home... Catch of The Day!!!


While Bob was Fishing I was wandering around looking for other "sea life"....
Here is The Big Guy I found.... No..Its not The Lockness Monster.... Its a Manatee... I waded in the water trying to get as close as I could for his "Kodak Moment" ... You can hear them when they come up an make a blowing sound for air...

Started yesterday stopping for Coffee and going to The Local Farmers Market.....
Yummy Yummy.............. Fruits and Veggies !!!

Here is A Manatee that I saw today in The River.. I'll post more later.... Blogger keeps giving me a hard time trying to post tonight... :(

A Vest I just finished for Felix....
I used Bernats Camouflage Yarn.... Look at the crazy designs it made on the Front and Back.. The "pooling" made it very interesting I think. The Vest is in Ravelrys Patterns.. It was a Fun knit and I love the style of the vest.. Don't know if you can see the Cable from there but they are on the front and back.

So it seems that I have become a Fan of Jodi Picoult... I have one of her books and liked it but right now I forget which one it was.. Here are six more that I have picked up in second hand stores... I also have My Sisters Keeper which I have been wanting to start. Right now I am reading Ken Follets .. World Without End .. Its such a BIG book so its going to take me a while to read it.. I wish I could speed read so that I could get into more books... Last Summer I was listening to books on tape so that I could knit at the same time... Multi Tasker.. Thats me... :)


I sent Felix a little Celtics Hat just like the one I made his Daddy....

This is a Shawl I made this week... Its more like a "shawlette".. I have been wanting to use this crazy wool ribbon yarn that I bought in a yarn shop up north a few years ago.. I just could not figure out WHAT to make with it... So this is from the skeins of the same color which were a nice light brownish tan.. Now I have 4 skeins of this in a light tan and 3 skeins in a nice light oliveish green... So now I am thinking... Maybe a drop stitch scarf or a bulky hat ???? Gotta get more of this STASH yarn used up...
