Snow

Action shot!
Always being funny.

The next Vanna White, showing off our littlest snowman.

"Take my picture, Mom."

We ended up with about 3 inches of snow, and two days off from school! We made it down to Olympia for Thanksgiving with no problems and had a wonderful holiday-we are still eating leftovers. Our hill in the backyard makes the perfect toddler sized sledding hill and while staying in I've managed to make new hats for both kids and a lace shawl for myself. Next up, mittens.

Social Commentary Via A Hat








His video game was never interrupted. She still loves her brother, even if he doesn't pay attention some times. Usually, he gives her too much attention!

I knitted the hat, entirely out of scrap yarn, I've got every color of the rainbow! Guess who wants one now! I did a 2x2 rib, casted on 72 stitches on size 10 needles.

A Rare Sight



Not just that it was 65 and sunny in November but that they shared a space without fighting for about 15 minutes! After this little photo shoot, it was all over. The paint became finger paint, they fought and E fell to the ground at the suggestion that I wash her hands. Punctuated equilibrium.

Zoinks!


Harry Potter. I hand knitted the scarf, "It itches." He didn't wear it for long.
A Princess in a witches costume! She didn't want to be a Supreme Court Justice.

DH was shaggy. We went to a family friendly party, tick or treated in the nicer neighborhood with the sidewalks and got to bed by 8:30! It was a fun night. E was dragging her bag of candy but kept going and Butters had a great time with his friends and glow sticks.
