Wet Sunset

If there's one thing I love 

(besides the obvious of course: my husband my children and pizza)

It's a good rainy day.

I never really liked the rain until we lived in Jacksonville, NC for a few years

It rained super often since we were so close to the coast and 

It got to where i really looked forward to just cozying up inside and listening to the rain...

Another favorite thing of mine about rainy days is when it just pours all day long and starts to clear up just in time for the sunset 

Hoofbeat Plantation

So, on Tuesday we went to the park for a relaxing afternoon and a picnic

(See Things I Learned Yesterday)

On the way home from that park there is a really cool WMA

(wildlife management area)

in Warthen

called Hoofbeat Plantation

it's a deer farm consisting of red and fallow deer

it is VERY cool!

we got to see a bunch from the road 

and as many of you hunting savvy folks might know the rut is on!!

we got to see the bucks chasing does around and calling to one another, it was so cool!

Here are some pics I took from the truck:

This guy was staring straight at us.  

Croc Blanket Progress & a Small Project on the Side

Hello Lovelies!

For anyone Interested in my progress on my Croc Stitch Blanket

Here is a slightly up-to-date photo of where I am on it.

(nevermind the poor lighting and weird coloring in this photo, I took it from my phone inside @ night.  

So obviously, the worst possible conditions)

It's to the point now where it makes me hot to work on it

(get your mind out of the gutter!)

This thing is getting so big and heavy!  

When i lay it on my lap to work on it i'm completely covered and I get to sweating!

Finished Skull Motif Scarf

Well, I have been working on some Skull Motifs the last couple of days.

I love these and posted some progress photos on the 3rd 

But now, I have officially finished my scarf!

I love this!  

Skull Motif

I love this motif!

A few weeks ago I bought this pattern on Etsy 

From Wicked Crochet

The pattern is for a skull motif scarf, so I'm gonna do that first

But I was thinking I could probably piece some together to make a throw or something!  

Like for Halloween 

(or just whenever really)

This is how I am spending my morning/day

Coffee & Crochet

 How cool are these?

 Bunny "helping"....

I love this color, it's called "Ocean"

The pattern is super easy too

 So fun

I look forward to getting further along on this project today!  

Them Bones

I have an odd obsession with all things dead and bones.

Here is a "photog" of some dead things I have found and received while living in the country...
