SCAVENGER HUNT SUNDAY

Vintage - my mother's rolling pin. She owned this rolling pin and used it my whole childhood. When she passed away I got it. I use it to roll out dumplings for Chicken and Dumplings.

Word or Quote - a sign advertising breakfast.

Nature's Own - some moss growing in our yard. Isn't it pretty!

People - my hubby and son enjoying the spring weather.

Photographer's Choice - beautiful blue sky, fluffy white clouds and a jet trail.

What we are hunting next week...

1. Whimsy

THEME-A-LICIOUS MARCH MADNESS CHECK IN

Heather over at It's Geek to Me is the host for Theme-a-licious. Want to join in? Head over to Heather's place and check it out.

For the month of March we are to......
Stitch or knit on something different every day...it's madness...of the funnest possible kind.

I've decided to make Christmas Ornaments. I picked out my patterns (10 of them) and if I did my math right, I make 3 of each and that way I'll have 30 at the end of March. I've been busy. I have a tin that I'm keeping my ornaments in, so the twins won't find them.

The tin is getting full, I'll have to find something else to stash them in. Here's a peck at them out of the box.

Aren't they pretty! They will of course look better on the Christmas Tree. Here's a close up so you can see them better.

Don't forget to hop over to Heather's place to check out what everyone else is working on.

PROJECT 366 REWIND - WK. #10

Sarah over at Nap Time Mom and Gina over at Gigi Marie Photography are the hosts for Project 366 Rewind. What is this? A picture a day, that's what this is. Once a week we show off our pictures. This is my week:

64/366
The spice Lazy Susan, it's full of spices for healthy cooking.

65/366
My favorite drink, a fountain coke from our local convenience store.

66/366
Luke playing ball with grandpa.

67/366
Me crocheting and watching t.v on my computer. This is my relaxation time.

68/366
The shadow of the trash can, which is sitting on my file cabinet. Why you might ask is the trash can there? Because the twins like to dump the whole thing out.

69/366
Found this little flower blooming. The first sign of spring around here.

70/366
Bella's M i c k e y M o u s e smile. The twins love to watch The Mickey Mouse Clubhouse on Disney. She gets this silly smile on her face.

SCAVENGER HUNT SUNDAY

Ashley over at Ramblings and Photos is the host for Scavenger Hunt Sunday. Head over and check out all the pictures everyone is sharing.

Water - I was trying to catch a drip, but it didn't work, so all I got was water running.

Light - I get great light through my kitchen window.

Chocolate - nothing like hot chocolate in the winter, homemade kind.

Animal - this is Tigger, he plays music and the twins can bounce all they want.

Crowded - the crib isn't used for the twins anymore, but the toys have accumulated in there. It's getting crowded.

What to look for next week:

1. Vintage
2. Word or Quote
3. Nature's Own
4. People
5. Photographer's Choice

PROJECT 52 - WEEK #10

Amarie over at Tickle My Whimsy is the host for Project 52. One picture a week is all you need. Head over and check it out.

We are having signs of spring around here, but mother nature fools you sometimes. Last year we had snow in April. So I'm not getting too excited. But I do have a very pretty flower blooming, it's a miniature Iris. It's the first spring flower to bloom. Plus the Daffodils are starting to bud.

PROJECT 366 REWIND - WK. #9

Everyone in our house is sick. The twins are feeling better, they went to the doctor and have antibiotics, but the adults are fighting it off on their own. It's a nasty little bug that makes you feel like crap. I did manage to get my picture taken this week.

56/366
Bella loves Ranch Dressing, can you tell.

57/366
This is a rock in my garden. It was so pretty out, I had to go see for myself.

58/366
Before the twins went to the doctor, we had to re-adjust their car seat straps.

59/366
My bee quilt is sorely neglected. I need to start working on it again.

60/366
This is Luke and Grandpa playing. Luke is getting ready to throw the ball. He has quite a swing on him.

61/366
Another pretty day. The lantern in the garden has some frost on it.

62/366
My favorite measuring cups. They are Tubberware and I've had them 30+ years.

63/366
My favorite mixing bowls. They are aluminum.

Want to play along? Head over to Sarah's place, Nap Time Mom or Gina's place, Gigi Marie Photography to check out all the details and see what everyone is sharing.

SCAVENGER HUNT SUNDAY

Ashly over at Ramblings and Photos is the host for Scavenger Hunt Sunday. Want to join in? Here are the rules:

1. Anyone can participate.
2. You're encouraged to take five new photos this week for the challenge. Creativity is also encouraged!
3. If you get stumped, you may use one photo from your archive (although I'm not too strict about it - I do my best to take fresh shots).
4. Link up here on Sunday (or Tuesday at the latest) - you can use the button above.
5. Leave comments for at least five entries around yours (we have so many new participants each week, this is the only way I know to be inclusive).

Here's My Interpretation:

Routine - this is a before and after shot. Getting the kitchen back in order is a regular routine for me.

Music - is Tigger singing while you hop away.

Technology - is all the "stuff" that makes my computer run and I can't tell you how it works, my son keeps it up and running.

Show Me Your Style - is me wearing flip flops in the middle of winter. I pretty much wear them all year.

Mismatch - I'm sure everyone has one of these. A pile of mismatched socks. I keep them just in case I run across the other one. And it occasionally happens.

What to look for next week.

1. Water
2. Light
3. Chocolate
4. Animal
5. Crowded

THEME-A-LICIOUS UPDATE

Thought I'd update my Theme-a-licious thoughts. I'm going to be working on Christmas ornaments for the month of March. I have 10 patterns picked out and I figure if I make 3 of each (one a day) I will have 30 for the month. I got all my patterns over at Crochet Pattern Central, you can go and check them out. Once at Crochet Pattern Central, click on the Directory of free patterns, then scroll down and click on Christmas, then click on Ornaments. There are lots of patterns to choose from. These are the ten I'm working on.
