Hi everyone!

Happy Thursday to all of you!

Boy!

This is a busy time of year!

It is my first holiday season and I can see that everyone is very, very busy trying to get everything done!

I have made us a cup of tea to sip and enjoy for a few minutes today!

I even baked us some cookies!

Let me go and get them...

Whoa...

Oops!

I fell in!

Tee hee!

No worries!

Warm baths can be very soothing too!

Snack Time for Ollie on his New Gladdy Paddy!

Happy Monday everyone!

It is me...

Cousin Ollie!

I am so excited to show you my new Gladdy Paddy Mini that Archie just got for me!

He loves his so much that he ordered one for me too!

Now I get to eat all of my seed snacks on it!

It makes snack time and clean up a breeze for my mom, Melanie!

Now Archie and I both have Gladdy Paddys!

Our friends Gladys and Linda make them in lots of sizes and colors that they sell in their etsy shop, LindyLou4U .

I am so glad I have one because my aunty Melissa thinks I am part pug!

I LOVE to eat!

Last night, I could not wait for my fresh food to come out of the trays so I took matters into my own wings.

I flew right over to taste the new weekly menu that my mom, Melanie, prepared for me!

Yummy!

Taste tested and Ollie approved!

What is on your menu this week?

Please leave me a note and let me know!

Fiber Art Show 2011

Happy Wednesday everyone!

Melanie and I love this time of year because we get to go to all of our favorite craft shows together!

We just went to our most favorite one ~ The FIBER ART SHOW! :)

My favorite teacher and needle felting artist Heide Murray was there!

Melanie was so sweet and bought me the snowman while I bought the lion and then I got a felted egg and a knit monster doll.

I get a doll from this artist every year to add to my Yarn & Sewing Room!

Look how happy they are sitting in my ready to ship sweater vests!

They are all so much FUN!

What fun Holiday Shows do you like to go to in your part of the world?

Please leave me a note and tell me all about them!

I cannot wait to hear!

Tweedles and Georgie just finished a beautiful yarn painting!

Look how amazing it is!

I get goosebumps everytime I look at it!

If you would like to make a yarn painting too, I have created a fun tutorial for you to enjoy!

Thank you so much for always playing with us!

A gorgeous cactus bowl and a coral formation with a crab!

They are just amazing!

She got the patterns on etsy!

Here is the cactus pattern and here is the coral formation if you would like to get them too!

Archie's Gladdy Paddy is Here!

Happy Monday everyone!

How was your holiday weekend?

Ours was so much fun filled with food, football and fiber art!

I had so much fun making custom Sweater Vests and Barkclava Hats while Fred watched football. :)

Archie was super excited too as he got to enjoy his very first Thanksgiving!

After he woke up from his food coma, he was thrilled to see his new Gladdy Paddy was here!

Our friends Gladys and Linda make the most beautiful pet quilts that they sell in their etsy shop, LindyLou4U

Linda and Gladys made one for us in our favorite colors ~ Yellow & Orange!

Archie has been playing on it with his favortie monkey toy all afternoon!

When he finally poops himself out, he can take a nap on it! :)

We love our Gladdy Paddy!

Thank you Linda and Gladys!

What fun things did you do this weekend?

Did you travel or stay home?
