I've been Busy!

Well I finally finished the table runner it turned out really nice...I need to iron it out....I wish my camera was working so I could post a picture. I'll try to borrow my daughters and post a picture of it soon....I also just made a crocheted handbag out of some gorgeous wool that my secret pal had given me.....it turned out really nice...now I want to felt it but I'm not sure how to go about it ..I've never done it before....I bought more wool to make more of them ( to give to friends)....although I couldn't find anything at my LYS as pretty as the yarn my Pal gave me.

and last but not least I just finished my first pair of crocheted socks..and I LOVE them!!...Want to make TONS more....

Looks like I'm back "in the mood" for crochet!

Freezing our butts of in NY ....LOL

OH MY!

Oh My!!! It sure has been awhile hasn't it??? Well last I posted we were about to take our Puerto Rico Vacation( which we did...and it was FANTASTIC)...unfortunately on the day we were driving home( from NY where we flew out and in)we got a phone call letting us know my nephew had been killed in a car accident. It was quite tragic..he was only 19 ..same age as my son Nate. We got home Saturday and I flew out Monday to attend his funeral.....needless to say I wasn't in much of a crocheting or blogging mood for a while....then a few weeks later a dear neighbor of our lost her battle with Lukemia....I still can't believe she's gone.....

Now we did have some good times during all this...as I said our PR vaca was GREAT...in April I turned 40!! and DH and my best Friend planned a SUPER Surprise Party for me...it was MORE than I could have hoped for and I was totally shocked...I knew they'd be cooking something up for me but never expected anything of this magnatude( will post pics)...In May my youngest did her Confirmation in the Catholic Church..and in June my other Daughter graduated from HS...she is going to VA Tech...she'll be a HOKIE..LOL.we had Orientation this week.....she is VERY excited!

Like I said earlier though I pretty much lost interest in Crocheting for a while...then this summer I picked up my hook and started on a really pretty table runner.....I am getting close to the finish...unfortunately my camera's not working these days so I can't take a pic of it yet....I do have pics of stuff that's been going on.. though and I'll post those in a minute.
