. Put big piece of paper under the darling girl's hands so she can fingerpaint with whaterver she got into and display for all of us to see!
I got my package today... thanks for the gorgeous yarn and goodies!
That sounds like a perfectly lovely list. Great pictures too, although.... the finger painting one scares me just a little bit...
great photos...I'd say you want to get some knitting done! Have a great time - this list looks like fun!!!
Well, it is still a knitting blog... :-)
That could be my list. My oldest only has 2 pair of shorts that fit...all the rest need to be boxed up for the younger brother. Just keeping the right size clothes in the drawers could be a full time job here with their growing. =0)
And I'd like to get some knitting done.
oh we just survived doing that with Love's clothes...barely. just keep telling yourself it's worth it, and call me if you need a hand!
great list, very similar to mine. hopefully if gas prices don't do us in we'll do some of those list ideas together. here's hoping!
:)
Oh I love family bird watching, too!!
Looks like a great list. I love all the references to knit something - a list after my own heart. :)
Hmmm the list seems so familiar. Have a great time outside now that Mother Nature has finally decided that we can have spring.
tee-hee :) There is going to be a lot of knitting going on.
oh, i love your list, ali!
and the photos are just too cute.
good luck conquering some of those things!!! :)
