Good News! And a Bit of Nature

Hurrah! The baby hat fits!! His dad took him for a walk, and stopped by on his way home to show us. No photo, but he's sure a cutie.

Yesterday on my walk I saw this deer in someone's yard. I think it was enjoying lunch.

This photo is way better than the one I took this afternoon.  I think it's a Golden-crowned Kinglet, but it may be a different version of the Ruby-crowned one I saw earlier.

Dick caught this Varied Thrush in our backyard this afternoon. They only visit at this time of year, and we are happy to see them.

Happy Valentine's Day a bit early!

 

A Finish and a Beautiful Moon

This is what we saw early this morning, isn't it pretty? It's called the Snow moon and supposed to be visible for another night.  I wonder if you can see it where you live?

We just learned that the little girl we watched grow up has moved back in our neighborhood with her husband and a sweet baby boy!  I sure hope this fits since it's chilly and snowy here. Now back to work on another sock!

Have a great day!

Another Snowy Day!

 Here's what we woke up to today! The schools opened two hours later than usual, and our street which goes way uphill is still covered. It's supposed to get colder and snow some more tonight. We'll see! Have a nice day.

A Finish and Some Snow!

I just finished this pair of shorties with this pattern. I guess warmer socks are called for today!

A few minutes ago, this is what it looked like at our house, and now it's stopped and starting to melt!

Have a nice weekend!

Finished at Last!

I won't tell you when I started these socks, but they are done now! The pattern is called Mercury Socks, and I decided to make them shorties.

 

The other fun thing that happened today is that I saw this cute little bird for the second day in a row on my walk. It took a while, but I believe it's a Red-crowned Kinglet. It's very little and not terribly shy.

Hope you had a nice day, too, as well as a fun evening!

Happy 2025!

 Happy 2025!  I have way too many unfinished projects, but in spite of that, I started a new one and even finished it, too!  It's a dishcloth that will soon have a new home.

Yep, it's just a dishcloth, but it's a fun pattern! (And it's finished!)

We've had some fun visitors in our backyard lately. The upper one is a nuthatch, and we don't see them very often. The lower one is a chickadee, and they are around all the time. The birds seem to be extra hungry lately because they emptied our bird feeder in one day recently!

Have a great weekend, and a blessed New Year!

Happy Holidays!

Whether it's singing, or

Christmas lights,

this little guy wishes you the best holiday season yet!
