Happy Trails.....

Well, I have been out of town...to watch my girls play in their Special Olympics Basketball Regionals. I then got to visit one my Aunties, a cousin and one of my Great-Aunties. Had a wonderful visit. Here are the girls with their silver medals.Great Job Girls...Good luck at State. Wish I could be there. Love ya!!!

At my Aunties we were loving the Christmas gift she received from a friend. Here it is in its glory...I did get some knitting done during my travels...I finished my last skein of the Patons Decor-Sweet Country Verg for the Pinwheel baby blanket, need to go pick up the final skein. I am making this for our new Grand baby coming in March. Good thing there seems to be no dye lots with this particular yarn. When I finished the skein for the baby blanket I casted on a baby sweater for the wee-one. :o) Here he is...........

I can't wait to give that little guy a big hug and kiss. :o)

Ripple Me Happy!

Have you ever been so joyful for someone else's accomplishments that it inspires you into action? Well, I have. Keri has made the most beautiful ripple blanket that I sooooo want to make one for myself. When the gal of Knitty Gritty Thoughts first posted the lovely snuggly I knew I had to make one. I used to have a blanket with the same pattern. I bought it at a thrift store, it was light blue and white. It was so well loved it is no longer with us. :o(

I love blues and reds so I think I might make mine with red, white(I might use cream instead of stark white) and blue. Very patriotic, that's me also. :o)

Have a Happy Ripple of Day!
