Back on-line!!

WOW!!! I haven't been on-line in forever. I have been so busy with skating and school and knitting that i have had no time for anything else. But notice that I did say that I was still knitting. Actually no matter where I am nowadays, I have a ball of yarn and some needles in my hands. My ice-dance coach's wife recently had a baby girl and i made about nine or ten sweaters for her. Here is one of them:

I will continue to post the rest of the sweaters, but nine pictures is a lot for one post.

Also, remember the poncho I made last year for a little girl named Molly??? Well, this year I made her this:


Molly's Coat Posted by Picasa

It was made out of berrocco hip hop and some other scraps of fluffy, eye-lash yarn (I forget what it was called). The pattern is in one of the new berrocco baby books.

By the way, I almost forgot, Merry Christmas & Happy Hanukkah!!!

Happy Mother's Day!!!


Mother's Day Basket Posted by Hello

Hope everyone has a wonderful and relaxing Mother's Day!!! I made this basket for my mom, and two others for my aunt and grandma. With a honey-oatmeal and chamomile-almond face mask, who wouldn't be relaxed. Keep knitting everyone!!!

Off to Connecticut

Well, everyone, I'm off to Connecticut to work on my choreography for my dances. But don't worry, I'm taking my knitting and R.P is coming with me. It should be interesting trying to knit with him in my lap. He kinda likes to chew on balls of yarn. I should be back on Friday and will post pics of how far I got on all my projects. I just started a scarf out of some luscious brown sparkling yarn, (I forget what it is called), and I have fallen in love. I'm also working on another sweater for myself from a Gedifra book, (once again I forget which one, and I'm too tired to run upstairs to find it, since R.P. woke me up at 6am.) I'll post pics when I get back.

T-R-O-U-B-L-E, Yep That's My Name

Well, here I am, Mr. R.P.


Here comes TROUBLE Posted by Hello

And guess what I learned how to do:


Yep, I'm in basket Posted by Hello

Yep that's right, I figured out how to get in the laundry basket. It is actually very simple, just JUMP in. But be careful on the way out. I've already landed on my head three times. And I SCREAM which makes Rachel and Mommy go NUTS.

And then there are the times when Rachel lays on the floor to play with me, but I take over.


Aaaaahhhhh, sooooo comfy! Posted by Hello

I never thought a human's back could be soooooooo comfortable.

And then when she was cooking her yummy Easter treats,


Look at all these pretty treats Posted by Hello

Guess what I did all day long?????


Chillin' Out & Gettin' Tan Posted by Hello

Yep, Yep, Yep, sleep under the nice and toasty sun, in the blanket Grandma gave Rachel (But I really know it was made for me). Aren't Grandma's the best???

Skate, Skate, Skate, Skate, Skate

I feel like all I have done the past few weeks is skate. I barely have time to even go to the bathroom. Oh well, I guess that is life. What can you do??? Now I have tendonitis in my ankle from my 4 inch high ballroom shoes, so I'm hobbling around. And my skating boots really hurt, but DUH!!! That's what happens when you have tendonitis.
Anyways, I hope to have a new addition to our family soon. I'm looking for a dark brown, toy poodle. I think they are so cute and the brown ones are really rare. If anyone knows a good poodle breeder, please let me know. It is getting really lonely in the house with out a dog. My parents and I have picked out the name TWIZZLE. See in ice-dancing there is a turn called a twizzle and my parents think I can do them really well, so they wanted to name the next dog Twizzle. Now my dad tells me he also wants a giant schnauzer named Schnitzel. And my mom wants a water dog, named Paelle. Interesting family I have, right??
Well, I'm off to catch a little sleep.

Farewell


Kishka Posted by Hello

Kishka Leigh Siegel (April 13, 1995 - February 11, 2005)

We sadly had to say good-bye to our wonderful dog, Kishka. He had a wonderful life of ten years, and we will miss him very very much.
