Newest stocking



I needed to make a stocking for grandson, Grant, who used the Santa last year. I finished his stocking a few weeks ago. I still need to make one for his new little brother, Cory. Then there will be another new baby next Christmas!! This is Grant's stocking.

Christmas Stockings



I started making Christmas stockings for the family about 35 years ago. Since then I have made one for myself, Keith (husband), our 2 children, their spouses, and our 5 grandchildren. Last Christmas the family came to Michigan. Here is a picture of all of our stockings. There are also stockings for our 2 dogs, but I didn't make those.

Pumpkin hat


This is Elise wearing her pumpkin hat that I made for her. She wears it every day.

I am working on a Christmas stocking for Grant, knitted. I will post pictures as I make progress.

Sebastian's 6th birthday is Friday and his party is Sat. He also has soccer practice/game on Sat. so it will be a busy day.

I am also still training for my walking marathon which is in 4 weeks. They have some wonderful places to walk here in Boise, but it is much warmer than Michigan.

Idaho




I have been in Boise for a week now. The grandkids are great. They do wear out this grandma though! Here are some pictures of the kids and things I have made for them. This is Cory's announcement we created . We had help from Craig's friend Todd who was visiting from L.A. (thanks!) The other picture shows Cory in his candy corn hat. Isn't he cute?
The top picture shows Cory in his bear hat that was made for him by my internet friend Sandy "Froglegs"! He loves his hat--thanks Sandy.
