Wow, I haven't written on this blog in a while! Sorry about that everyone! We've been finishing up school, so there hasn't been much time to keep the blog going steady... I've still been finding time to crochet stuff in the evening during family movie time though! =D I've made an adjustment on the penguins ;) The penguins have babies! And not only are the babies super adorable, they double as finger puppets! ;) I had to sneak the original baby penguin away from my little sister (who stole it within minutes of finishing it)
Here they are! Now to figure out how much I'm going to be selling these for ;) They're actually quite fun to make, and I love making them in all the different colors! And my siblings are good testers, and according to them, I should make a whole legion of penguins! And then give them to my siblings.... hmmmmm haha =D
Saphira has been been up to a whole lot too! Unfortunately I haven't gotten pictures of them yet... But she made a whole bunch of button necklaces, around 6 or 7, a pair of cat slippers (adorable!), a little hand bag, and a few more ponchos! I'm hoping to get the pictures taken later today, and then I'll try to post them, either tonight, or sometime tomorrow... =)
We've been getting the garden ready too! I don't know about all of you, but I can't wait for the fresh veggies! =) And this year I'll be planting some flowers too! We have a fence on the side of our yard, and it's just crying out to have some flowers underneath it! ;) I'm thinking Tuberous Begonias, because I love how rose-ish they are! =) (Roses are my favorite flowers)
Hi everyone!
Over the weekend I decided I was in desperate need for companions for my little penguin I made ages ago...So, I broke out the scraps of yarn, grabbed my crochet hooks, and starting going! Personally, I think they're cute, but I'll let you be the judge, and tell me what you think... =)
Here's a picture:
The second penguin from the left (the blue one without the hat) is my original penguin, and personally, I like the other kind of eyes, that his friends have better....Ah well, I guess when they say a painter's worst critic is himself, the same can be said about crafters! =)
I'm thinking my next penguin will be orange....And then a bright green one, with some form of beret ;)
I'm off to think penguin-y thought! ;)

Hello Everyone!
I've decided to start a blog to tell the tale of what Mom (Saphira) and I (Annabeth) have been up too! I'll tell you all the things we bake (be prepared, you're probably going to want, no, BEG to come live with us hehe), all the things we're crafting, and some of the daily going ons in our house! =) I can't promise I'll be on everyday, but I'll see if I can write at least once or twice a week! =D
A little about us:
Well, let's see.... We're a family of 7, I have 5 pet guinea pigs, both Mom and I cook, bake, garden, knit (though I am a little less skilled in that area), sew, cross stitch, and crochet. Not to mention Mom teaches us five kids! =D
OH! And I'll probably also mention the occasional book or movie (did I mention we're avid readers/family time movie watchers?), that we've read/watched recently! =)
I'll write again soon, but for now, I need to go satisfy my sweet tooth ;)
Till Next Time!
