It didn’t really turn out like the sample, but hey, I’m new… 

07 OctBallet Sweater 

I finished an object!  Now to do the leg warmers so I can be a proper ballerina…

I’ll admit, Carol wears it better, but hey, it’s nearly 10 pm and I’ve been up since 4:30 am this and I’m not at my best.

   
   

02 SepThe beginning of the end…

Time goes by in the blink of the eye as they say. I’ve been told I missed the last couple of years. Have a great first day of junior year Grae!  And Andrew and Jacob, you’ve finally made it … Freshman year for the twins.

  
I can’t believe it.
