Lazy Saturday

  Father's Day came and went and unfortunately I was unable to finish my dads present, a purple and black corner to corner, in time. Ran out of yarn! I think it's coming along beautifully though, don't you?
       Until I can make it to Hobby Lobby to get a refill, ha ha ha get it? Refill? (I make myself laugh lol) I started making granny squares for the pixelated Pikachu blanket...I started a couple days so and I have 41...which is not to bad...except I have 1726 to go :/
   Don't let these colors fool you, they aren't that bright. I went through a bunch of patterns to get this granny square, although they were all well written I wasn't very fond of how they looked, I ended up adapting one :)
   The no poo is going really well! I can go a week without washing my hair, and the only time it gets greasy is when I put products in it and even then, it's very little and it actually has waves :)

This was a lazy day, don't judge ;)
I leave y'all with the amazing cup of coffee that I'm drinking while I work on these squares!
Doesn't it look delicious? That's cause it is :)

One ta-dah & two w.i.p. :)



I’ve been a bad blogger the past couple weeks, but can you blame me? Between my school, the littles’ school and other mommy duties I really haven’t had the chance to sit down nor have I had the motivation. 

With the start of the school year comes one of my favorite seasons, fall. I know it’s coming too because a few days ago when I was giving our pooch a walk I noticed some leaves had turned red!


  I love fall! The crisp air, to be able to drink hot drinks and not feel like you are sitting inside an oven and being able to bake without worrying about heating the entire house up. But most of all because of the coming Sabbats and holidays, love them all and very much excited about all the cooking and decorating I will be able to do these upcoming months!






  I finished the littlest of littles 1st birthday blanket and she loves it! I’m still contemplating putting fabric on the underside but that will be a while from now being that I still have 3 blankets to finish. I thought it came out rather cute with the scalloped edging.






 Her older brother A likes it too, I think because of the holes in it, he gets completely under it and just sits there looking up. Maybe I’ll make him a summer blanket for his birthday next year. I got so close to finishing S’s Christmas blanket but unfortunately I ran out of yarn on the very last square (knew it was gonna happen too but I was in denial), all that’s left on hers (besides finishing the last square) is to join all the squares and to think of an edging….haven’t decided on one yet. I really like how it's turning out so far!

I started working on A’s Christmas blanket 2 days ago I believe and I’ve actually gotten pretty far with it, have 32 little squares made and I have 6 more to finish then I get to make 13 octagons of each of light brown, dark brown and blue. 

I think he’s gonna like it, I know I do!
It is lunch time here, so I must get off and feed the littles.
xxoo
P.S. This is what I'm up to today :)
