Antonio party, Halloween, random musings!

SO......I think I told you last week that it was gonna be Antonio's birthday on Wednesday.....well, he had his birthday and his party.......a great time was had (all the picture/video overload at the end of the post)




It is almost Halloween, so Paige and friends carved pumpkins


Antonio had soccer.....it was a cool 51 degrees.....


One day this week I came home to Jax having made a muddy mess on my bed......and this past Sunday I had a new puppy in the house for a bit (ignore all the wood chips on my rug.....Jax loves to chew wood and I cannot always keep up with all the vaccuuming)!




and I have a picture of Kody's costume....he is a Party Pooper......so funny!



I crocheted on 2 baby blankets.....this one:

I wore my Torbellino to work

Happy Birthday vs Happy Jury Summons

Hey everyone......so this coming Wednesday (2 days) is Antonio's Birthday!  and for his birthday, I got a Jury Summons......so Happy Birthday Antonio and Happy Jury Summons to Me!


In other news.......
A friend of mine and Darlene's started work with us this week!  Welcome Jennifer!


I got 2 new purses because I could not decide which one I liked best:


Jaime and I had date night at Chachos (my favorite because they have amazing pina coladas and margaritas!)


I am still going to the gym....and by the gym is a rome's pizza (like 2 doors down) so last night after my workout, I got a greek salad with chicken breast.....it was so yummy....but I really wanted to eat an entire pizza!


I got yarn for a couple of girl baby blankets.....I think I am gonna put these colors together


and I got the yarn for the baby blanket for Nathan and his wife (The gym guy)



The only other thing I worked on that I can show you is Paige's wallaby.....I am still working on my test knit, but I am almost done with it....I just cannot show pictures till the end of the year.


That is all I have got.....Have a great week!!!!

I'm Late......so sorry!

I'm so late posting...so sorry.  But that means I had a great long weekend.  I took off Friday and Tuesday...for a 5 day weekend!  What did I do?

Well, Jaime and I went to Bandera with the RV




I decided to start a new blanket for Grace..these are her school colors, but I think I am going to frog it.  The pattern is Cactus Garden and I am afraid the patterning will make this blanket look, like a spiderman blanket because it will looks like webs or something...so I will hunt down a different pattern.



Since Jaime towed the Jeep, he took me to the two yarn stores in town.....both were very nice and pleasant....I bought some stitch markers from Lavendar and Sage...she was so sweet, and in the bag she bagged my stitch markers in, was a card with a stitch marker and two buttons.....soooo nice of her!



While I was in Bandera, my DIL was in the 2019 Alamo Showdown classic.  She was in the amateur division for bikini, figure, athletic, physique & Bodybuilding (I think).  She won 2nd place in Novice and 4th place in Open (I honestly have no clue what that means).....I am so proud of her!





When I got home.....I had a new dog in my house.  I told you how Kayta comes to visit...well, now I had a new puppy in my house.  I was on the phone with my mom and she heard the little puppy bark and she said "who is that" and I said, "oh, there was a puppy in my house when I got home." and she laughed so hard.....OMG...only I can come home to a new dog in my house.  It left a few hours later....probably a neighbors dog that came thru a hole in the fence.





Antonio and I went to Darlene's house to hang out on Monday....Here is Antonio playing with Betty (he made a face right before I snapped the pic).


While I am talking about dogs....Here is a pic of Bizz's two great danes...they are super cute!


Antonio is back in Soccer...I took him to practice last night....dang this boy has some flashy gear


Now for the knitting......I worked mostly on a secret test knit I cannot show....but I did block my torbellino and try it on....it is a little wide at the neck...


I ordered some yarn to make a Good Vibes Throw......




I also ordered some yarn to crochet a blanket for my new personal trainer's to be born in December baby.  I went to Paige's gym yesterday and signed up....Yes, I know I have access to a free gym at work, but I do not know what I am doing....so I need his help.  His name is Nathan and he owns Move.Fit.Live and he and his wife are expecting their first child (a girl to be named Sophia) in December.

I am going to use the Red Heart Amore yarn in light pink, white and hot pink.  I do not have the yarn yet....but here are the colors.


So as you can see I am continuing with my exercising and working out....I hope I see some results soon.....that is all I have for the week....and again, sorry I was late!

Have a great week!





Happy Happy Happy Knitting!
