Hello..... ?

Anybody remember who I am?
I know, I've been horrible at blogging. I'd like to think I can change my ways, but I don't know if there's any hope for me.
Here's what I'm going to try.

We'll see if it will get me going. Stay tuned. :)
*I should add, as long as I remember. I have a terrible, terrible memory lately. 

Little GIRL blue

I just finished these longies for Little Miss Raya Sunshine! Blue is my favorite color, so when I see blue little girl clothes, I have a hard time resisting them so when I got this blue wool, I knew exactly what it would be for!
I haven't done the icord (Tie) (Planning on doing it in the white) and they're a little long.. I'm hoping to wait to have her wear them until she starts walking so they stay a little nicer than the ones she crawls all over in!

Meet Ella

This is Ella, she's our new "puppy". (She's about 3) We just brought her home a few weeks ago.. She's adjusted to life here pretty well and she seems to really like the kids. She loves to play ball and dig holes.

Halloween

We had a very fun halloween. This was our first year to go trick-or-treating in the small little town we live in, even though we've lived here 3+ years. They do small-town style here and it's great. All the businesses do trick-or-treating in the afternoon so we went... and then we went door-to-door in the evening too. Everybody's so friendly and the older folks loved seeing the kids.. it seems like they get just as much or a bigger blast out of it as the kids!
Jessi was a little shy at first and didn't want to say anything, let alone "Trick or treat" but after a few houses she was tearing up to the door, ringing doorbells and shouting "TRICK OR TREAT!" when people opened the door.
A few pictures from that afternoon:
My dragon and ladybug. (minus the wings.. they were pretty big!)

My witch and one of her best friends, the spider.

Such an adorable witch. She was pretty sure she wanted to be a mean witch, but how can this face look mean?

The meanest witch face she could muster up. Here with her other best friend, the cheeta.

The group of kids we were trick-or-treating with.



Time to go home!

Oh, and much to our disappointment, Wade & I didn't dress up. Maybe next year, we both love to... we just didn't have time to find a costume or two.

Raya's Big Red Longies

I finally got Raya's Husker longies done!! They're the first pair of longies (besides one doll pair) that I've made. They took forever because I ran out of yarn and the co-op I ordered more from took forever. So, halfway into football season and they're finally done. ;)

She thinks she's pretty smart for pulling herself up on things now.

Since I don't have facebook...

Here's my two "would be" status updates for today:

~The problem with Jessi and connect the dots is that she always wants to take the long way around to the next number... by the time she's done you can't even tell what the picture was supposed to be.~

and

~Ever find that after having kids, you tend to cross you legs when you have to sneeze?~

The first step.
