My Adventures in Crocheting

I've been doing a lot of crocheting lately. I've looked into selling it on Etsy, but there's like a hundred other people selling the same thing. Maybe I'll try and sell through a blog or something, someday. Here's some of what I made so far.












What happened in January ...

Two birthdays! Daddy and Sophia.



Sophia is four! And her favorite color is still purple! :)



We repotted our lime trees, and picked our only lime that's grown so far.

Before





After
Allergy Testing: Samuel is not allergic to peanuts, but Sophia DEFINITELY is!



Samuel wanted to try on Sophia's new snow pants.


Playing with Sophia's new vet toys.




Such a fun month!

December

Snow day! With Daddy!




Christmas lights!






Random fun stuff.




Playing the "trombone."

Now we're excited for 2015!

Christmas

I'm a little behind ... obviously. Plus our internet has been sketchy lately. Christmas was wonderful! The kids were thrilled by everything! It's so sweet to see the season through their eyes. We saw Santa at the church Christmas party. Samuel was not a fan, but Sophia was happy.

 


We decorated the tree.





On Christmas Eve, we used Samuel's nap to make Christmas Tree cones.





That night we put out Reindeer Dust to guide Santa to our house. Oats for the reindeer to smell, and glitter to shine in the moonlight.


Christmas itself was the perfect flurry of family, gift-giving (and opening), and fun.








We went to my parents' house for a bit.




And a few days after Christmas we went to Tim's parents' house for their Christmas party and pageant.










It was a great Christmas!
