Been 2 Years!!

WOW can not believe it has been over 2 years since I posted here!!! Life gets in the way at times I guess. think=g are all different now. I no longer live in WV, am back in Florida near my family again:) Have not done any more Charity delivery's have been doing a few squares here and there to help others with their Charity's. If you are doing a charity please let me know and I will see if maybe I can help you a little.
Just got Finished with making 2 Robots for 2 of my Grandsons for christmas & a Blue Monkey for my 3 year old Grandson. he wanted it blue like Boots of of Dora:)
Then last night i made a set of coasters.

WE HAVE FINISHED & DELIVERED 106 BLANKETS!!

Well everyone we did it!! we meant our goal of 100 blankets to deliver to the Victory Junction Gang Camp!!!! I want to thank everyone that help me again this year!! for without all you ladies out here that give so much of yourselves this could not have happened. you all do so much more than I and oh my lord at all the talented crocheters we have out her!! way to many great blankets here to even think about choosing a favorite.
and I think we have all managed to find a couple of new patterns that we will be wanting to try out LOL

I was only able to take a couple pictures at the camp. as I had NO Idea that they have hours to which you can take a tour:( and they had no where for me to display on these great blankets for you all to see. but none the less I took a couple.

now we will all rest and get ready for our next years challenge LOL

I pray that God will lay many,many blessing on each and everyone of you. for i feel bless just knowing you all.




This is the big Balloon that stand over the camp
This is the Travel center, which is right outside the gates. this is as far as you can go without a tour guilde
Meet my hubby of 31 years. we are standing with the camps mascot. John was happy to go with me and help can't you tell! LOL
This is inside the Travel center which is way small! but you can see there are 7 bags of blankets standing here and a couple more that we were unable to get as my sister-in-law could not back up any more! the gentleman standing with me was in charge of the center this day

Married to a Crocheter -- A Husband Speaks Out

From Robert: "I'd like to take a stand for all of us husbands who live with a crocheter. From years of experience gained from being married to one, there are several bits of advice I feel qualified to give:

Learn not to attempt to communicate with her when a new crochet magazine has arrived until she has scanned it at least twice.

Adjust to all the leftover yarn from all those projects, as it will be stored anywhere available. No place is sacred.

Learn how to buy yarn on your trips to the store, as you do not buy by color alone -- you buy by lot numbers.

Be prepared to be totally amazed at the results of your wife's handiwork with hook and yarn, especially with all the money she saves in gifts.

Learn to show the appropriate sympathy and compassion as she unravels hours of labor after finding out that a mistake has been made either by herself or the pattern publisher.


A lady from my Crochet Group shared this with us and I thought it was cute and wanted to share also:)
