Barbs gems and her scarfs!

Barb has been at it again! This is Josh and his beautiful girlfriend Zahra wearing the scarfs that Barb made for them. Notice Zharas scarf perfectly co-ordinates with her stunning hair colors. Speaking of hair? Something looks different with Josh's hair?

So we have been getting all these beautiful gifts from our contractors in my office. Some nuts and fresh fruit and flowers and stuff. Each thing that has come in we have ripped apart and indulged. Well today we got a beautiful BASKET full of goodies. I came back and said ohhh I want the basket. Everyone said well its stuff for the whole office. I said not I don't want the stuff in it I WANT THE BASKET!!!! Yeah dork! But look at it...its a nice hinged handle bakset. For all that wonderful wool Santa is going to bring me!


MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!

First Knit Wits Holiday Party!

SO...we have had our 1st holiday Knit Wits party. Barb was nice enough to once again open her home to use for a little holiday knitting fun. Surrounded by friends and family we came from near and far with our yummy dishes and knitting in tow. We did a goofy gift exchange where everyone went home with some kind of crafty knitty gift. Overall it was a big success. Thank you everyone for coming and thank you Barb for you hospitality once again!
Deb was the first to arrive with her festive party hat!
Kate and Craig brought Craig's mom, Betty
Sean and Mia made the trek from the Eastern Shore!
And so did Betty and Jerry!
It wasn't long before the knitting commenced!
Mark and Linda slightly out of focus...or was that the photographer???
Lyn looks happy, but I'm not to sure about Sean!
Deb always maintains her sunny nature - and without alcohol!
Another busy knitter
Such Concentration!
Oh, hi y'all!
