Happy Birthday, Stephen

First, please accept my apologies for the tardiness of this update. Life happens, and I have been busy doing other things, so the blog just kept getting put on the back burner until today. Then, to add injury to insult, I am having major issues putting photos up, so there are several pictures of people that just aren't showing. I'll try to make it up to you by taking more pictures of you in the future.

We celebrated Stephen's birthday, when he turned 39 (again). And we also had a bit of a Christmas party at the same time. The weather was a bit dicey, so not everyone that we expected made it. But a good time was had by all those who did. We were happy to see Dan D. who had not been around for quite a while. Unfortunately the photo that he is in (to actually prove that he was here) is one of those that I could not upload.

Elizabeth won MPK this month and wore her February Lady sweater. I am not sure what she was knitting on now, but the cat was having a great nap and keeping parts of Elizabeth warm and toasty.Char, Steve, and Sharon in the dining room. They all look so serious...Pat, Elizabeth and Maggie in the living room.
Pat brought this crocheted Nativity. It was very adorable. She gets the award for MPC (Most Prolific Crocheter).
Pat also made the cutest ever Santa and Reindeer.
I tried to stick them in my pocket to bring them home with me, but she caught me. Better luck next year.
Linda brought this adorable snowman all decked out in hat, scarf and mittens.
Char, Steve, and Sharon are still at the table. Is it because the food was there???
And Troy made a nice place for the cat to sit. I can't tell the difference - this is either Callie or Bumpy.Next spin and grin is January 17 at Steve's. Then mark your calendar's - the February spin and grin will be on Saturday, February 13, at Char's. That is also shearing day. More details will follow. Then on Sunday, February 28, we will be shearing at Steve's. Hope to see you all there!
