Puppies!

Last week my little Pippen gave birth the four tiny little puppies. She only had one girl who is named Molly. Her brothers are named Jasper, Charlie, and Fritz. They are growing so fast! Their eyes aren't open yet and they aren't able to walk, but they are so funny to watch. Their little heads are to heavy for them to hold up for long periods of time, so they end up bobbling all over the place. They look like they are drunk :D Silly puppies don't they know they aren't old enough for that yet.

MY NEW ETSY SHOP!!!!

So I have finally made my etsy shop! I was starting to get all piled up with all the things that I have made. Plus Myles told my I wasn't allowed to get more yarn until I got rid of some of the stuff that I have already. ;) Here are a few of the things that I have added so far. I will add some more soon.

Back From Scotland

I've been back from Scotland for a few weeks now and I have to say that I was really sad to leave. I'm afraid that Brevard just doesn't ct it compared to the UK. It was so much fun. I have never had so much fun in my whole life. I have always wanted to go to the UK and new I would some day I just figured that I would end up going myself. It was so much better to be going with someone that actually lives there. Doing it that way I got to see so much more stuff, besides the things that all the tourist see. I got to meed loads local people and made bunches of new friends. I'm really thinking about going over there to get my master's. I think it would be amazing, especially since I'm studying history and the is just so much more history for me to learn over there. And what better place could I go to learn something than where it happened.

Almost Christmas Time

It is the final week of the semester for me and it has been absolutely the longest week in history!!! I have exactly one more exam and I will be finished. I haven't even attempted to study for it and can't really bring myself to. I'm just to excited! I'm flying out for Scotland on Saturday morning with my boyfriend to visit his family for Christmas and New Years. He hasn't been home in whole year and he is so excited. Its all we have been talking about for the last month. I've secretly been keeping a count down (secret because he laughs at me every time I tell him how many more days it is until we leave). I've never been outside the continental U.S. so this is a really big step for me. I think I might just get lost and not come back. :D He promised to take me to The Elephant House Coffee Shop in Edinburgh (its where J.K. Rowling started writing Harry Potter, yes I'm a total geek but I have to go!!). Its so exciting though to go to a place with so much history when I'm coming from a place that is so young, especially when History is half my major. I'll probably take pictures of absolutely everything and look like a complete and total tourist but I don't care I'm too excited to care. Its going to be so much fun I can't wait!

Newest Creation

Hello all! I just wanted to share my latest project. I just finished a lovely slouchy beanie. Its really warm and cozy and will be perfect for keeping me warm when its chilly out. I've been working on scarves, wrist woolies, leg warmers and all sorts of other warm and cozies. Its been really cold where I am and I was in desperate need of stuff to keep me warm so this was just a good excuse to crochet, not that I really need one. But its nice to have a reason. I'll post my next project when I'm finished. Feel free to tell me what you think!

This is chalk?!?!

I was absolutely amazed when I saw this photograph. It is incredible to me that someone can create something with so much perspective with chalk! The artist is Julian Beever. Here is a link to some of his other work. http://www.cravingtech.com/julian-beever-3d-chalk-drawings.html

Eyes

The eyes tell so much about a person. I they tell more than any other part of the body. I read once that the eyes are the gateway to the soul. To look into another's eyes is like opeing a book full of knowlege and wisdom. And there are so many different types of eyes. There are happy eyes, sad eyes, scared eyes, brave eyes, funny eyes, somber eyes, wise eyes, and unfortunately there are many of the times ignorant eyes. Everyone posses each of these types of eyes at least once in the course of their lives. My only wish is that one day my eyes show a deep and concentrated wisdom that this man's possesses. Though he is old and worn with the effects of time, he is beautiful. His eyes give him this great sence of wisdom and power that only a person who is well experienced with tribulations as well as ecstasy that is life.
