366 days of photos week 36

ok, i'm earlier in posting this than i thought i would be...
this week we have lots of cuteness, hookin', dnc, & centipedes, OH MY!!!  :o)

day 243: sun 9/2

took hopp to the splash pad on sunday morning with a friend's kiddos & she had a blast.  usually it's a nightmare getting her hair & face wet in the shower but she had no problems with it that morning.  :o)

day 244: mon 9/3

here is the pic of the coaster sets that i'm giving away, go like my fb page to get entered if you haven't already.  :o)  it was the hubby's bday.  he is a true labor day baby.  :)  he is finally as old as i am so he can quit saying i'm old for about 3 mths.  ;o)

day 245: tues 9/4

look how sweet she is!  i can't remember why she was in the front seat but she thought she was going to get to ride up there.  um, i think not little miss.  the back seat it is for you!  :)

q in her bunny foo foo outfit.  it's so cute, it has a little layered tutu skirt with it.

day 246: wed 9/5

took hopp to the dr.  she had a bad cough & it was a stupid sinus infection!  while waiting for her rx at sam's we came across this giganto hedgehog.  omg he is so cute & as big as her!  if they still have it i may go get it for her for her bday coming up.

day 247: thurs 9/6

i had taco casa for lunch & i love it!!!  it tastes like the original taco bell stuff.  tb has really gotten nasty lately, we call it astronaut food.  :)  i love the sauce at casa, it's so good!  i had some sweet tea, they have THE BEST SWEEEEET TEA!!!  now when i say sweet tea, i mean it!  it's so sweet, just like me, oh i mean like i like it.  :o)

was working on some hookin' & watching the dnc.  i know there are lots of you that don't like him but i stand my ground & say I LOVE ME SOME OBAMAS!  he has been so awesome with all the bad criticism!  it's got to be the worst job & he has been a complete gentleman!

day 248: fri 9/7

yep, here it is.  the centipede that was outside our office building.  we are out in b-f-e & we get all kinds of critters.  a scorpion was in the sink one morning & just this last week there was a rattlesnake in master control in the station! 
this was the best pic i could get of him.  i really wanted to put him in perspective of how big these suckers are.  that card is as big as a credit card!  the head is the red part.  they are very poisonous & luckily he was cleaning his antenna & i got a still pic of him.  he was really fast!  scary, gross but oh so interesting & yes he really is shiny.  it looks like one of those plastic shiny bugs but they really do look like they have shiny plastic bodies.

my fo for last week.  it's halfway done, just 44 more to go!

q was reading the diggingest dog to me & hopp before bed. :o)

me & hopp listening to q read to us, we got some crazy hair going on!

my friend maria sent this to me.  jess taking pics on the field at the high school football game.  it's a religion here in west texas & she is on the yearbook so she gets to stand on the sidelines & take pics.  this was before the game while the band was warming up, i think.  she loves it!

day 249: sat 9/8

the first parade for the girls.  i may have taken q when she was really little but this is their first parade to remember.  they loved it!  it's a really big parade for our area.  it was almost 2hrs long!  it kicked off the west texas fair & rodeo & there were lots of great cars, horses, bands & rodeo queens.  i will definitely be taking them to the parades more often, we have several throughout the year.  :o)

one of jess's friends asked me to make her a slouchy & matching scarf.  this is the yarn i picked out.  i really like it.  it's a pinkish red & worked great for my projects.  you should see them tomorrow.  it's first love by yarn bee in passion berry.  it's a nice chunky/bulky yarn.  :o)

tgifof!!!

thanks to someone (annette, don't know why i'm calling her out, she doesn't even read this) on facebook i have that stupid friday song by a young teen, not the kp one.  but anywho, it's friday so i get to show off my finished stuff!  :)  so if you would like to see other creative stuff head on over to tami's amis & check them out, it's mostly knit but there is a few crochet heads like me. 



first off is a bit of a cheat but i was testing it out & did a starburst granny for my crochet along i'm doing starting today i believe so if you crochet & want to join us head on over to inner hooker on fb to get more details.  :)  i can't get a correct color example but the two pics are terrible with the true colors.  i don't even care for them as a blanket so this will end up on the potholder wall.  :)  the real colors from inside out are navy blue, deep red, burnt orange (not bright orange), deep purple, mustard green & grey.  jason said it reminded him of thanksgiving, i was thinking fall.  the colors are really nice together but just not something i would want to look at on my bed.  so now i just need to figure out what colors i want to use.  any suggestions anyone?

starburst granny

 so i have some leftover yarn from that hat i did for a friend & wanted to do something with it because i didn't think i would ever use it so i got the cream & black from her other projects & did a simple granny in different color variations.  the cream is peaches & cream (i think, didn't look like lily stuff) & the black is lily sugar n' cream yarn.  the rainbow yarn is redheart i believe, not for sure of colorway.  each set of 2 is the exact opposite with the white/black.  i really like them & might actually make me some.  :)


my coasters :)  sorry poor picture quality again. 


hope everyone has a great friday & can't wait to see everyone's stuff.

i plan on a hair post later today.  i did hair super cute today & most of the week.  :)
