Christmas Preparations

Well, apparently I lied about the blogging drought that was supposedly going to start a few days ago--because here I am, procrastinating by blogging :). We have a few pre-Christmas photos to share...

We cut our own tree for the first time this year, along with our friends Alex & Erica:







We also drove down last Friday to wish Karlie a happy birthday, and to visit our favorite bell-ringers...they even recruited us to help for a while:




And I know you're all clamoring to hear about my most recent knitting adventures! I was working on a little sweater...but then the Cambodia trip came along and I decided I didn't want to attempt multi-colored knitting on super-tiny needles on the plane. So, I decided to make us Christmas stockings! I finished Andy's while we were there:


Mine, sadly, is quite un-finished, as I had to surrender my knitting needles at the Bangkok airport just before our long 12-hour flight. I am working on it though...or was, until I discovered yesterday that my knitting bag has disappeared! Help! Has anyone seen my knitting bag--a while shoulder bag, with a green & white stocking-in-progress and knitting supplies inside???

  • Jess, that's a gorgeous stocking. Did you use a pattern or make it up?

  • They took your knitting needles? YOUR knitting needles - most likely the most harmless person to have every traversed the Bangkok airport? Well, I hope they get coal in their artificial, polyester, last-year's-sale Christmas stockings ;-)
