Emily thought I should tell you about the yarn all over the place.

It is amazing what 5 little ones can do with a skein of yarn. This started in our home in Riverdale and we would let the little ones take some yarn, and they would string it over and around any thing they could hook it to. Then they would take a blanket and throw over the top to make a tent.

One skein of yarn makes hours of fun. Clean up isn't bad, but in this case it took me weeks, not because it was a big mess, but it was a great memory.

Hello to All!
Now don't faint or pass out our anything, it is really me writing on my blog again. We have had a busy couple of months just like everyone else, but sometimes when you do the same thing over and over you wonder if you want anyone else to know just how boring you really are. Ron went in for a little knee scope surgery on the 4th of December. It went very well and after a couple of weeks on crutches, and a few more days he did go back to work. He had so much fun doing his left knee that on January 15th he went back and had them do a little knee scope surgery on his right knee. It has been two weeks and Ron is back to work. What a trouper!
We had our sleep under the tree party on December 13th and 14th, and it was fun.
I do miss the jammie pants I used to make, and some of the kids are requesting them again. We will have to see, but I do know we haven't taken a family photo for a couple of years, so we need to get back to the jammies. Christmas came and went and we did get to see most of the kids. The weather didn't always cooperate with travel!

January came and went so fast, and the groundhog has all ready seen his shadow, so we know we have 6 more weeks of winter. Hopefully February will be filled with much Joy!
