A Crochet Adventure

It seems now that I have made 2 one year commitments for Afghans...... well one 13 month and one 18 month...... then another for 6 inch blocks I should be kept very busy for a while.......

On another note I can't wait to see Jessi this year...... I wonder what special something I can make her...

Tye Dye - Batch One

Done with Jessi age 10 inspired by her Aunt, aliastriona. We used the one step dye kit we bought at Wal-Mart for 19.97. It says it dyes 20 projects we got close to 25 done, yes there are more to come.

We got Guitar Hero

Jessi asked and the settlement from the accident allowed us to get Guitar Hero. As well as her really cool new clothes. Tennis shoes are thanks to her stepdad's monetary gift to her school wardrobe.

Jessi's Fish Minion

The other day we were joking about little bunny minions and Suddenly Jessi pipes up she wants fish as minions. Now here I am picturing a troop of goldfish trying to take over the world, while she is picturing fish wielding tiny weapons, wearing diving helmets filled with water and walking using their tail as feet. So this conversation was forgotten until later when I was browsing dishcloth patterns and Jessi spots the

and of course she just has to have it. So what's a mom to do other than whip out the hook an whip up Jessi a minion of her very own.

For Jessi

It seems I am now being reprimanded by my 10 year daughter about my lack of posting to the old blog which frankly I hated the interface I was required to navigate in order to post. So for her I start this news blog so that while she is away living with dad she can still follow what is happening here at home with Mom, Naga, and her siblings.

Dear Jessi,
This post is the beginning of the series of posts that will keep you updated on the news here at home. Never have you been forgotten though contact with you much of the times has been difficult to achieve. So here you should find at least once a week a letter from Mom and the family under the label Jessi. I love you. -Mom
