Random.

So!  It's been a week since Thanksgiving!  How did that happen?  All of a sudden we are in the thick of the holiday crazy.  And I don't even know where to start.  You know when you have so much to do that you are overwhelmed and end up getting nothing accomplished?  That's basically where I"m at with this blog right now.  So! Many! Things! So how about a random list of fun  I found when downloading photos off my phone?

Sled Dogs

Oh but before I get to that sign ups for the Road Trip Yarn Club are still open!  And I'm even offering a monthly payment option!  It's the perfect gift for that special knitter in your life.

1.)  The dude and his partner in crime at their preschool Thanksgiving party:

2.)  Tiny straight up refusing to be put into a highchair.

 He is convinced that he's a big kid and who am I to argue with that?

You do not argue with the Tiny.
 3.)  My girl.

I love everything about this picture.

4.)  So I rarely am ever able to volunteer at my daughter's school (no child care option.  Toddlers?  Not very helpful unless you want lots of messes and/or screaming) But!  Any time they've put out the call for random craft supplies?  I am ALL OVER IT.  Recently they were hoping for fiberfill.  I don't know what they were going to do with it I just knew I had a giant bag kicking around my attic that I inherited from my great-grandmother's house.  While digging it out I found this:

Digging in my attic for some yarn to donate to my kid's school and I found this. It's from my 2005 just into knitting and I have disposable income and oooh shiny! Phase.  I probably shouldn't have bought it then but now? It's going to become an awesome El
Remember when yarns like that were a thing?  Back in like 2005?  Yeah... right at the time when I was just getting into knitting and had disposable income.  I purchased many nonsense skeins like this one.  I also have a ribbon yarn poncho somewhere that I shouldn't even admit exists.  Ugh.  Anyways I threw it with some Patons and boom:

Elsa scarf. Perfect Christmas gift for my girl.

5.)  The Book Advent Calendar is back:

Getting the Book Advent calendar together and wrapped. Nothing like waiting until the last minute!  #xmas2014
I added a few new things and reused a bunch from last year.  This year's interesting twist?  Watching my 3yo try to have the self control to not open the next one until that night.  It's tough.

Yay random!  Hopefully this gets me back in the mode of posting again....
