12/365 2011 Of Course It’s a Cat Toy

I’m sure that’s what Elvis said to himself when he found my yarn. Darn cat!

11/365 Jacob and Facebook

Jacob is doing what he does best….spending time on Facebook. I am still amazed that he’s half-way through his 17th year. I don’t think I’m old enough to have an adult for a child.

10/365 2011 Finished the Olivia Afghan

It’s finally done! One more blanket crossed off the to-do list. I love the colors in this afghan. So girly, and it’s a nice light weight yarn.

9/365 2011 Sleepy Elvis

He woke up when he heard me getting the camera ready. He must sleep at least 20 hours a day lately. Sometimes I think it would be nice to be a cat.

8/365 2011 Somebody STOP Me!

Is this a blog about crochet? Apparently it is when that’s what occupies my time. One project at a time isn’t enough. I just had to try a new hat pattern I found on Lion Brand Yarn website.

7/365 2011 Yes, Another Hat

I loved the hats I made for Suzee, so I just had to make myself one, too. I’m using sock yarn this time. I really like the way the colors are working up. (The book is Crocheted Gifts by Kim Werker)

6/365 2011 Olivia’s Blanket

Yet another crochet project that failed to be delivered in time for Christmas. I’m SO close to being done with Olivia’s afghan. Just a couple more rows to go.

5/365 2011 The Hat Is Finished

Here’s me modeling the hat. Actually, this is the second hat. After I finished the first one, I didn’t like how thick it was (the pattern called for a thinner yarn) so I made another one….in ONE day!

4/365 2011 Crochet Hat

This is the hat I am crocheting for my sister Suzee. It was supposed to be done in time for Christmas, but I had to wait until the book with the pattern in it was back at the library.

3/365 2011 Elvis Under the Tree

Elvis will be sad when this tree comes down tomorrow. He has thoroughly enjoyed knocking the ornaments off and laying under it.

2/365 2011 I Teach Primary

I have a new calling at church. I teach Valiant 8 (all the kids that turn 9 years old this year). I LOVE it. The kids are wonderful and I am excited for this opportunity.

1/365 2011 Wide Screen + Flat Panel = Happy

Jason and I went out and bought a new television set. We have been planning this purchase for a while, and with the great sales over New Year’s holiday, we finally went and got it.

2011 and the next Project 365

I realized that I missed doing my Project 365 during 2010, and so I decided as that year was coming to an end that I would try very hard to take a photo a day during 2011. Well so far I have managed to find something to photograph almost every day. I have missed a day here and there, but since there aren’t any Project 365 Police, I believe a make-up photo is fine. This is, after all, just a way to document our lives for this year.

After my first go round, I learned that I prefer having only one photo per post. This means that I may publish several posts per day if I am behind.

I hope that you enjoy this glimpse into our lives as captured by my camera (including my Blackberry’s camera when needed).

365/365 Final Photo

Today is the last day of my 2009 Project 365. I’ve been debating whether or not to do this again in 2010. I love being able to look back and see the photos and read the journaling of what we were doing throughout the year.
