One Frame to Rule Them All...

the frame on the far right with the rainbow, that's our wedding photo... this is about half of the frames we've collected over the years.
It all started 12 years ago.
In Waikiki Hawaii.
Dale and I got married on 10/6/2003
We accumulated a massive amount of ABC store points.

If you've traveled to Hawaii and shopped at the ABC Convenience stores you know what I'm referring too...

So at the end of the trip I had to use all those point.

So many receipts stacked up.
I quick gathered them all and ran down to the ABC store in our hotel.
I bought a necklace, a coffee mug, some more post cards and then I bought out wedding frame.

The cheesiest looking frame I could find.

So it began.

After that we would take a picture on our travels and buy a cheesy frame to put it in. 

The rules of the frame are simply.

1. Under 20.00, the cheaper the better really.
2. Has to be amazingly cheesy.

Our newest edition to the Cheesy Frame Collection. I love it.


Phoebe Marie Update:
It's been one month since we adopted her.
She's so sweet. So funny. Just wants a soft bed, delicious kibble with a dabble of canned food on top, toys to play with and someone to love her to bits.

Which we do.

She's done well in the few training classes we've made it too.
She met my father last weekend. First introduction since she's been with us and after the initial growling and barking, she warmed up to him and he really liked her.

How can you not fall in love with her. Even relaxed she has a little mischief in her eyes.

Sweet Phoebe.

Happy Friday!

The 'To-Do' list...

and by 'to-do' list I mean 'to-knit' list. I'm really really trying to get on track with this list and stay deeply focused. It has helped that I have successfully removed all yarn from the living room and into Mr. Brown's Yarn shop on the second floor. Except for the fact that I went in there the other day with a shopping bag and loaded up. Currently in the sidelines to be finished 1. Ledge Trail Vest 2. Twiggy for me 3. 70 Yard Mitt for my other hand Finished those bad boys last night! this is what happens when you use the 10s burst hands free option on your iphone and you're holding said phone with your chinny chin chin. On the List: 1. Twiggy for a Christmas gift 2. Iris the Gourmet Monster but since it's for a boy I'm calling it Orvil. 3. Great White Shart Shark 4. Bosco - for me 5. Stillhouse Vest - for me 6. Woodsy - for me 7. Three Seahawk themed hats as gifts. 8. Gifts for friends... and on and on and on If you...

Finished Object

I'm not good at keeping surprises a secret...I get so excited that I usually blow it. Well not this time... I knit this sweater for Bump and had the buttons custom madefor it by Buttons by Robin, a wonderful shop on Etsy... She used a photo of Rupert that I emailed her...Rupert is their (Bump, C & M's) family dog... I couldn't post a photo until they had received the sweater which arrived on their doorstep last night... Oh how I wish I could have been there when they got it! It turned out amazing! Pattern: Baby Sophisticate Yarn: Big tweedy Cashmere (lucky boy) Please check out Robin's shop on Etsy I know you'll find buttons you love and she does amazing work!

W.I.P

Bears Barn Owl. We had a hockey game last night and while I'm normally so wrapped up in the game that I don't have time to knit, that was not the case last night. Silvertips have had a rough go and the Red Deer Rebels really wolloped them last night. So I knit. I ate some dingleberries. Delicious. and I knit some more. I have a feeling I'll be finishing this bad boy up by tomorrow and he'll be the star of the retreat. Isn't his color wonderful?
