Old Mister Hobbes. Such a wise, deep thinking fellow.
So wise, in fact that he understands every….single….word that I say.
Not so wise, however, that he realizes that I don’t understand ANYthing he is EVER saying…or doing, for that matter.
Case in point.
Haha. Hobbes–you are a funny little duck.
We love you.
Oh, my gosh….you guys!
I haven’t had this much fun putting a puzzle together in a long, long time!
All the lines made it much easier than you’d think. In fact, it came together in less than a week!
And my favorite part?
That shiny, pink nose.
Heh, heh.
Miss Chomp needed more road hours in order to past her driving class…
so, what better way than to take a 2-1/2 hour road trip to a couple of favorite spots in Beaver, Utah?!!
Being the “foodie” girl that Lyndi is, she knew exactly where we needed to go!
Even out in the middle of nowhere, it’s still beautiful country.
Ahhhhh–our destination is in sight!!
Ok, well, the billboard for our destination is in sight. It’s something at least!
Yummy food–here we come!!
Luckily, there was no one in front of us because we were hungry!
Sweet Lyndi…
got cheese curds and sauce. Ooooh.
Magoo and Lyndi both got Tetris Fries…
which even fit together. It was such a challenge. haha.
I ordered a lovely little cheeseburger with extra pickles and they really humored me. Look at that pile of pickles!!
Yeah, we totally waddled out of that place full to the brim and happy as a pile of clams. Oh, but don’t you worry Crazy Cow–we’ll be back soon.
YUM!
Just because I don’t exactly have a Valentine of my very own…Â 
doesn’t mean that I’m going to skip out on a day…
that is pretty much dedicated to the…
color PINK!!
Yeah, yeah. Red is ok too…for today.
It has it’s place.
Kinda like chocolate.
Heh, heh.
For Daney-boy’s birthday this year, I made him this Valentine’s garland for his mantle.
I know what you’re thinking…
“Why would a big burly dude like Dane want a froofy Valentine heart garland?”
Well, I’ll tell you.
See, this particular big, burly dude happens to lovvvve decorating for the holidays…
any holidays.
In fact, I’m sure, right this minute, he’s trying to figure out what I can crochet for Groundhog’s day or Harry Potter’s birthday or…or…or…
You get the point.
And you know what?
I’d probably do it too.
Because I have a special place in my heart for my sweet kids who all seem to adore making life a little more fun and having something magical to look forward to.
What I really hope is that they come by it…
naturally.
Note: The pattern I used is the Frilly Heart Coaster by Hygge Crochet Co.
