yarn, yarn, and more yarn

I feel like I hit the yarn jackpot this week!! Something I hadn't done in a few years: I bought tons of yarn (or so it seems to me!) The other day I bought enough yarn scraps at a thrift shop to fill a banana box!! Natually some has to be washed, oh but what a great time it will be to play with all that yarn!!! Today, I found fancy, velvety eyelash type yarn for a dollar a skein at Big Lots. I got two for me, two for junior crocheter! Then I found different types of eyelash yarns for about a dollar a skein at Mardens; they also had fluffy Baby yarn and a pretty purple yarn. I'm just not good at knowing the types of yarn, all I know if I hadn't bought them at these prices, I wouldn't have bought them!! Yesterday, I finally got my Happy Hooker book, so naturally needed some camo yarn and a blue/purple variegated yarn. As you can see by my post, I'll be doing alot of crochet for christmas this year!!

Ahhh, life is good, friends are wonderful!

Yesterday, Sunday April 22, 2007, I along with Darlene (DIL's Mom) and about 30+ friends/family showered my DIL and Son with lots and lots of baby gifts! It was the nicest Baby Shower I've ever seen. I am still in awe of everything they received--from baby tees to sleepers, tons of summer outfits to a home made knit sweater/hoodie and home made quilt both made of camo yarn and fabric.
What a variety--from tees with teddy bears on them to a black tee with a skull on it.
They have everything--but the baby. He'll arrive at the end of May. We are all excited for this new member of our large family!

And I am so pleased that Darlene and I were able to do this together, because that's what families are all about.......

And now.....................to get ready for Baby Shower #2 for my Daughter and SIL!

It's nice to have family and friends that are so caring. I appreciate them all.
