I spent the bulk of today finishing up some knitting

I had started. This outfit is using a pattern I found on Ravelry for soakers. She also includes
a skirt pattern, but I kind of went off on my own after I got started on it.
I really do not think I would do the picot hem again. I have a hard time keeping the stitches even when I am turning the hem up. I finished this skirt and sold it today. If you are on Ravelry, the pattern I used was Li'l Aries Soaker

by Amy O'Holleran. It was a free download. I will probably use it again, but I also found a pattern that I liked and bought. I bought Sheepy Pants and Sheepy Skirt

by Mandie Harrington, who is also on Ravelry. I decided to buy her pattern because I liked the look of her gusset better than the one by Amy. Believe me, though when I tell you I do appreciate the generosity of the designers who spend their time creating and then share their patterns with those of us who have absolutely no idea how to do it ourselves, or maybe we are just to lazy to put out the effort.

I also finished up this pair of tights. It is also a pattern I found on Ravelry. It is by Machelle Salmeen who has a blog called Chopped Tomatoes These are the second pair I have made. I went up a size in my needles this time, but they are still very small. They would fit a newborn baby. They are made from 100% wool. I am contemplating adding a skirt to them too.These longies are made from Amy O'Holleran's pattern also. I found it on Ravelry too. Again, I had some trouble with the gusset. I still think they turned out pretty cute. I do see one thing I need to fix, nah......I will just make the adjustment next time. Like I said, sometimes I can be a bit lazy.

I have a very pressing question.

Who is going to clean this when I die?

In fact who is going to clean all three of them?

Another week in the life of Gramma2Many

Caleb (#6212)

doesn't even need

a skateboard to ride the rails!

Landing on both feet successfully.

Miss Elizabeth (#6314)

learning to knit with Gramma.

She actually caught on very quickly and took her project with her when she went home to work on it further. She is the first to get the concept of knit one row and purl one row. I usually teach them to knit every row until they are comfortable with the knit portion of it.

Because we are in the middle of big changes in the basement, tiling the floor and putting in new windows, that area is closed off to Grands. This is the aftermath of a day at Gramma's and being unable to play downstairs.

I wish I could have taken pictures of a few bolts of the lightening that accompanied this hail storm. Had I still been living in Georgia, I would have been looking for a safe place to hide from the tornado.

I have not experienced a thunder storm with the power this one had for many years.

Still waiting for my beautiful Wisteria to come into full bloom. It usually blooms before it leaves. I do, however, see a few leaves showing.

The favorite corner of my yard. My cherry tree and my swing. I love to sit here and knit in the summer.

John 20:11-18

Verse 15: Jesus saith unto her, Woman, why weepest thou? whom seekest thou?

She, supposing him to be the gardener, saith unto him, Sir if thou have borne him hence, tell me where thou hast laid him and I will take him away.

I pray all of my blog friends know and understand the truth of this most holy of days. I pray your trust is in the only Savior, the Risen Lord.

March Birthdays.

I almost let March slip by without acknowledging my Birthday Hero's for the month.

March 18 Cannyn Ray George (#2208) turned 15. Shown above in his ROTC uniform. He is spending this week of Spring Break at ROTC camp. He hopes to follow in his Uncle Wes's footsteps and serve in the Navy.
My number 1 and only son turned 44 on the 25th of March. I am still wondering how it is that I have a son that age:) He is the daddy of Darius(#1419). We had taken his sisters to catch the train to go to Bellingham to visit their "other" gramma the day this picture was taken.

I almost forgot to post my birthday post because yesterday I was rear ended on my way home from my mothers. I was not seriously hurt and my car is only wearing the impression of the other cars license plate on its bumper. I feel very fortunate to have a Chiropractor husband. I went directly to his office and he did have to adjust my neck.

So any way, Happy Birthday to two very important Men in my life!!!
