Buckethead

Zoe doesn’t care for bows or hats, but loves to wear buckets!

No time for love Dr. Jones
Well it seems life and the season has caught up with me be able to write. Most of the past evenings if I have had time to write on here, I’ve either spent it horsing around with Zoe on the floor listening to that sweet giggle or resting from the overtime two Saturdays ago and then again during last week. The OT couldn’t have come at a better time. I’m so lucky to be able to provide for my family. Lots of families struggle this time of year to make it and give a little something to their kids. There have been lots going on around here. We finally put decorations on the tree last Friday. I was beginning to wonder if anything was ever going to get put on. I haven’t started any new crochet project. I’m thinking some booties for Zoe. We’ll see.
I’ll try and write more tomorrow.

Brrr
Here is a photo of Zoe’s hat that I made her a few weeks back. I was really impressed with it. It was the first thing I’ve really crocheted. I mean I did make a hat back in 2004 or 2005 but I really didn’t know what I was doing. This time I read up on exactly what it was I should be doing and voila.

I also made a black hat that Zoe has hidden somewhere in the house and I cannot find it now. It was supposed to be for me but it doesn’t fit. So now its collecting dust.
I’m also in the progress of finishing a hat for Stephanie.

It was supposed to be a surprise but she saw the yarn and I really couldn’t tell her I was using the purple multicolored yarn for myself.

Two great things on a cold wet night. Homemade chili complete with tomato juice from last seasons crop of ‘maters, and a frosty. The chili was excellent. Stephanie whipped it up while I went to pick up Zoe from her Mimi and Papa’s house. The frosty is 2 Below. A seasonal winter ale from my favorite brewery, New Belgium. A small brewery located in Fort Collins, Colorado. They don’t ship anything east of the Mississippi River. My all time favorite from their selection is the famous Fat Tire. And for those looking for a sustainable brew, try Mothership Wit, the organic wheat beer. It’s not my favorite list though, as it’s a bit on the citrus side.
Below are a couple of photos from last weeks epic Blizzard of 2009. It was gone 10am. Zoe had never seen snow before and she was opening her mouth trying to eat it. Silly girl.
