(it was a short trip but lotsa stuff packed in...Just a little note... the picture of Mr. Park and his kids on the Jet ski- is before they fell in~ *Good Times* and the boat we are riding (with wind blowing in hair photos) was something called the OC WaterSports- Thriller... the last photo is on the Lewes-Cape May ferry~ and... another little note... that is the replacement car Mr and Mrs. Park are standing in front of~)

Now on to Knitting~

I broke a knitting needle this morning... my love- the Lantern Moon Sox Stix~ I called Lantern Mood because I had read on Ravelry about their great Customer Service- and they are sending me a replacement needle on Monday~ woohoo!


and all plans to keep the Icarus shawl from my Mother were complete FAIL!!! I don't know when she did it... but she sneaked- it into her room~ (I went nuts looking for it in the meantime)and it re-appeared on our ocean city trip~


Nearly completed Lotus Blossom Tank...


and began a BSJ~ in Needful Yarns Cotton Joy~ using size 3 Addi Lace Turbo's (my Knit-Picks Harmony Options didn't come in size 3~ sorry Steve~)

stuff~

Last sunday... err ok maybe not last sunday~ the sunday before (wow time flies!)...I cooked dinner for my family... we had steak with mushrooms and onions (Steamed on the grill), salad, corn... etc~ I really like condimens... can you tell?


Then I headed down to Virginia to help Geana look after the kids... so to keep them occupied, we baked a bit.. these are sugar cookies, shaped and designed by jonathan and andrew... the frosting was soo thick- it was hard to actually draw things~ but they didn't seem to mind.. and of course they really loved the extra sugar~


This past Sunday was our graduation ceremony, even tho I finished school back in April, the school holds 1 ceremony a year~ Sam and my mom ended up playing with the camera during the ceremony, and killed the camera battery~ which I think accounts for why these pictures look so funky~


and here is a picture of my latest work in progress... it is the Icarus Shawl, which I'm knitting as part of the Ravelympics~ (to answer Geana's question, I take pictures of my yarn and work in progress and stuff on my keyboard because its convenient! I take the photo, and then just attach my camera... move the photo..etc, etc~ get it?
