New Mama Bunny and Baby Doll

Good Evening my blogger friends! The weekend is here!! Just letting you all know that I have another Bunny Doll for sale and just listed her in my Etsy Shop a little bit ago!

Will start working on a pattern for her tomorrow!!! This doll is a little larger then the one I have listed on my ebay right now.

This morning woke up to the most beautiful sight! We got around 3 inches of beautiful fluffy snow that stuck to everything! I was up at 7 a.m. and out the door at 8:00 to take some pics. I wanted to get some great shots before the wind blew all the snow off the branches. So now that we got some beautiful snow.... Spring can move in now! LOL

Birdhouse that the squirrels live in.

Sun coming out and peaking through the trees!

Made a trip to Black Hawk State Park

Good Morning my blogger friends! We have a cloudy in the 40's kind of day today. I've been busy making rabbit dolls and just have to share with you!

I will be working on a pattern for this sweetie this week. I'll let everyone know when the pattern is ready on here.

Hiking in North Carolina

I recently was in North Carolina visiting my daughter and her family. We were there to celebrate my grandson's first birthday which I didn't want to miss. We all had such a good time! On Sunday (Super Bowl Sunday) we decide to take a hike as the weather was beautiful, close to 60º. We drove to the Blue Ridge Parkway to see, one of the many falls called Skinny Dip Falls. And to also see Looking Glass Rock which was amazing!! I got my exercise that day!! And what a beautiful place to do it at!!

Daughter and grandson in tow. Just about the whole trail look like this with rocks and tree roots. It was about a 1/2 mile hike.

This was a very interesting the way this tree was growing. I guess they call it the reindeer tree.

I loved the moss growing on everything!

Made it to Skinny Dip Falls. And...no... there were no people skinny dipping! LOL

I just love this photo of my daughter and grandson!!!

A little stream I found walking back to our car.

Dead mossy fungi tree

A lot of the trail was like this!

Loved the moss!!

So that was our hiking trip and I'm ready to go back and find another falls in the mountains of North Carolina. I guess there are many to be seen!

Birthday Party Time!

We had a celebration for my grandson who turned 1 and his great grandfather who just turned 93. They have the same birthday, February 1st !!!! My daughter always makes a fruit tower for her kids. A more healthy way to celebrate birthdays. We did have gluten free brownies for great grandfather and it was yummy! The best brownies I've ever had!

And another fun thing we did was go roller skating!!! It was my granddaughters first time on roller skates. She wasn't to sure about the whole thing first. But she finally got the hang of it later. It was so fun! Been like 20 years since I had put on some skates! I loved roller skating as a kid!

Cora with Robin who is a Roller Derby Mama!!! She is a friend of my daughters.

My daughter, Robin and granddaughter.

Fun times....I'm ready to go back to North Carolina, but I don't think it will be for awhile.

A few of my vintage feed sack birdies that I have for sale on etsy and ebay right now!!!

You are probably wondering where I have been again. If I'm not sewing....I'm a traveling...a traveling to North Carolina! We went back again to be there for my grandson's first birthday. Can't miss that! Was there for four days and had the best time. I will be posting pics from the trip in a couple of days.

So for now I just want to let you know that I've been listing things today on my ebay and my etsy shop!!! <------Just click on the highlighted links.

Here are a couple other pics I captured on our snowy Tuesday.

Well...I must get busy and get something done today. Have a wonderful day! Stay Warm!

Thinking of Spring while the Snow is Flying!

I started thinking a couple of days ago about Spring, with this warmer then usual Winter. So I listed this sweet goose doll last night.

She is made with a pattern by Doreen Frost who is a most talented artist!

This morning woke up to a blanket of ice and snow. Now it's all snow as the temp has been dropping since this morning.

Captured some more shots of the snowflakes!!

These two pics were from this morning when it was more ice then snow that was falling.

And.....then a few hours later when the temperature begin to drop

I took these shots! You can see that they are a more formed snowflake now!

I'm having so much fun with my camera! OK...time to get back to my sewing!
