Random photos from the past few days and Michigan blanket Ta-dah.

Hello my lovely followers and readers. How are you today? I am feeling better and better each day. Oh and first off I want to thank you all for the well wishes. I am healing well and will be back to my old self in no time.

Don't you just love the above picture? I ordered these hooks a week ago and they came in the mail yesterday. I ordered them from the Herrshners website. They were on sale for $19.99. I couldn't pass up that kind of deal. I love these new hooks. I just open up the case and look at them and feel them and...well you get the hint. And you know, I never knew they made such small crochet hooks as some of the steel ones are. It amazes me.

The above picture is of on of the most perfect leaves I have seen so far this fall. I haven't been outside much lately but I happened to be walking around outside and saw this leaf..Had to take a picture.

Oh and this grasshopper was sitting right beside the leaf. I hovered over, zoomed in close, sat beside it and it didn't move. I took several pictures of it and liked this one the best..

This picture makes me smile every time I see it. This cat was once our neighbors cat. The neighbor had thrown it and broken its leg and then decided the cat should live outside. Well it adopted us. Here it is on our couch (it is supposed to stay outside but the hubby and kids let it in). This silly kitty lays up against the arm rest, on its back, with its feet up in the air...Cracks me up.

Today my hubby and the kids decided to play a little football in the vacant lot beside our house. My husband is in the white shirt and shorts, my oldest daughter in the pink shirt, my 2nd daughter in the blue shirt, my 3rd child and oldest son in the greenish shirt, and my younges son is in the white long sleeved shirt. In this picture my husband and youngest son is plotting against the others.

Here my oldest son is throwing the football to my dear hubby. Perty good arm for a 7 year old.

Can you see his head and body through the railing on my porch..My youngest son was taking a break. I don't think the game was going HIS way..

And here..my oldest daughter is giving her daddy a stiff arm block. She actually made it past him and her sister who is standing there appearing not to pay attention tagged her as she ran by..

Now are you ready for the Ta-dah?

Are you really ready?

Well here you go.....

The Michigan blanket is finished. All done in single crochet. It was made using Caron 1 pound yarn. It took a skein and a little of another in Midnight blue and less than half a skein of sunflower. It is 136 single crochets across and 160 rows. I did 3 rows of single crochet in sunflower for the border.
I am very happy it is finished and can be sent to its new home. Now I can finish up some of the other WIPS.

That is all for today my friends. I hope you all have a great day/night and until next time...Be Blessed.
