    I love the silvery blue colour if the pine needles. The golden light in the background is lovely too. I hope you have a fantastic weekend planned. Jacinta x

    I love big fir/pine/evergreen trees but sadly, we have none in our yard or our neighborhood except for the bristly kind that hurts to touch.

    I have a giant Blue Spruce in the front yard. It's the only thing that really looks alive during the winter... Praise God for evergreens!!

    Blessings, Debbie

    I love the light in that picture-- something about it makes me think about summer waning.

    It looks sort of like a Blue Spruce? But the needles look a little long for that. I'm curious as to what exactly it is. Do share :)

    I know this visit is way overdue but I still wanted to pop in! This makes me miss NY so very much...

    Last week, I was playing around on my new phone and got this shot of my nephew. I always enjoy him, but particularly when I see my sister's essence in him. Does that make sense? This was one of those moments...

Weekends

My weekend happily contained: -wearing the above woolens all at the same time without being hot -so many walks and taking in the changing leaves. -a leaf shower on Saturday-the wind swirled the leaves off the trees up in the air to float down -changing screen savers to autumn themes! -a craft fair where my husband and I say "we could make that", but we don't. -french fries at the craft fair -scrambled eggs and toast for dinner because we were lazy. -football season has descended in my house. he was in the front room watching whatever is on today -I sat in the family room and watched A Tree Grows in Brooklyn .   Now I want to read it again. -Oh!

  Good morning to you! How are you? I'm excited about my hat that I've been knitting enjoying the sea of stockinette stitches. When I first started the hat I thought it would be too small, now I wonder if it will be too big. Gah. I will find out soon I guess. I wish the photo about showed how beautiful the colors are in real life, you'll have to trust me on this! Below is my next knitting project, the habitation throw . I will definitely use the pink and gray, I'm still not sure about that purple, I might have a look-see in my stash and do another ponder about that color. I chose this pattern because I can use up some of my stash and I adore Helen Stewart's patterns. What are you working on this week? Also: I will probably not be posting this Friday and the following Monday because of my family visiting. I hope to be back next Wednesday (unless I change my mind).
