New Year

Well the new year has arrived and I have been busy with my puppies. I still have one puppy left looking for a new home. He is 3 months old now. The puppies were ready yo go at 6 weeks but because it was Dec. 23 too close to Christmas I didn't advertise, only because I don't want them to go to someone buying for a gift and the person getting the gift doesn't want it. It is a really big job taking care of a puppy. Sure they are cute but they need work too.

Update the puppies are all gone to new homes. I was a little ticked off with the one lady that told me her sad story, so I reduced my asking price to make her and her (everyone laughs at her) daughter be able to get a puppy. Some how it wasn't supposed to be she didn't come to get the dog and I did get my asking price from another lady.

Enough of the puppies I have been busy with birthday gifts for my childrens friends. My son has yet another B.D. party to go to for this weekend and I need to get a couple pair of socks done. My daugther has a B.D. party for March 1st and I would like to make Sheldon for her. I have already done one and now working on a second one.

Chritmas Knitting


Some plain old slippers because the winter is cold and we can always have something warm on our feet.


Here are some hiking socks everyone can use them so I made up a few to give as gifts.


Here is a pair of fancy cable socks. it took me a few months to make this pair only because I was busy working on the other christmas gifts that really needed to be done.



Here is a update on the puppies these photos are of the girls one is sleeping. They are ready to go. I called the man who said that he wanted another one, well as usual they change they mind. So I have no buyers yet .

No Photos to show

Just dropping in to let you all know that I haven't been knitting much. I did get the back and the front done in the Bamboo sweater that I am working on and a pair of plain socks for my hubby and son. I also did a hat for my daugther, but she is so fussy that I don't think that she will wear it. It has been made for a week now and it's cold out and she is still wearing her store bought hat. Her friend wants a hat and socks for christmas, so if I make the same just a different colour then she might wear it (I am Hopping). Kids are so fussy, but I guess I was that way too when I was younger.

All the seven puppies have found a new home. Now I am just waiting for the next litter, Missy is due on the 14th of Nov. Just a couple of weeks away and we will have new puppies, I love watching them grow.

Nothing Happening


Not much happening just doning the regular daily things. My puppies are just about ready to go they will be 6 weeks on the 20th. I have sure learned alot since having my first litter. I use to soften their food everyday and twice a day when they get bigger, but this time I did just a bit at 3 weeks and now I don't at all and they have their teeth coming in and eating the hard food. Makes it much easier for the people who buy them. Well here is a picture of them just a few days before they are ready to go.

Here is a picture of a doll that I wanted to make a dress for. So I made up a little knit in the round dress and not too bad of a fit. I just used some left over sock yarn.


Here is a little bear that I made up last night only took a couple of hours, now I need to put a face on him.

I am still working on the bamboo sweater. I did get the back finished and I cast on the front, it's half way done shouldn't be too long now. Then I can post pictures for you to see.
Have you self a great weekend and I hope to post sooner and not take so long in letting you know what I have been knitting. God Bless

Student Awards


Yes my children got an award for not missing any school, 0 days absent. They both got a check for $100. Here is my daugther going up to recieve her award.


This is my son getting his award and yes he is wearing glasses, something new we just got them last week. He was the top of his class last year and now he looks like a nerd to go with it. He's ok with it, at least now he can see the board at school.


One more thing, there was a draw among the student that didn't miss any days for $50. and well the list wasn't very big there was only two, yes just the two of them so one was bound to win and it was my daugther but they both agreed that who ever won they would share. They had it planned before they even knew that they were the only two in the draw. Great for them.


On to the puppies they are well and doing fine. Here is a picture of the first litter. They are 15 days old here in the picture.


Here is a picture of my daugther holding them with the mother. I will post more pictures as they get bigger. Enjoy your day and God Bless.
