The Best Thank Yous

By -
 I personally think the best thank you is a photo with the baby wearing your hand knits.  This is my co worker Holly's newborn son with the hat I knit for him.  He'll grow into it.  The way this winter/spring is going he'll need it until July….
I don't wear much makeup.  Getting ready for the wedding last weekend, Dayna who was staying with us, offered to do my makeup.
She was genius.  She told me about the above product, Final Seal.
Apparently the Disney Princesses use it on their faces in the heat of the Florida Summers.  
Disney Princesses do not perspire. Their faces do not melt in the heat.  
That's my makeup tip of the day. 

Any tips to share today?

Awwwww...what an adorable baby in an adorable hat.

Yes, you are right. Before long his hat will be just the right size. Babies grow SO fast.

He is so sweet. The hat is a manly color for a boy and he wears it well. What a sweetheart!

White Hot Shooshing Cream is my cosmetics tip. It is great for adding definition and texture to white or blond hair.

Love all the photos as I am catching up on blogs. The family wedding looked like so much fun, the chocolate bunnies look yummy. I love Al's hair, she is a gorgeous girl and of course I am excited about the giveaway.
Hugs,
Meredith

I'm not a baby person, though I do knit for them - and you're right, there's nothing better than seeing them all cozy in your knits.

So THAT'S how they do it!!! It always amazes me how they don't pass out with all the makeup and clothing they wear when it's a thousand degrees outside!!!

And that baby is adorable!!! He'll still be able to wear it this winter. Which starts in Oct. After it ends in June. Enjoy your two weeks of summer!!!

I don't wear makeup anymore, so no fear of melting in the heat (that is, if it EVER decides to warm up).

Photos are definitely the perfect way to say Thank You!

I agree! Seeing a handknit in action is the best thank you.

I don't wear enough makeup for melting to happen... except with eyeliner. Any tips there?

And wait 'til you see my new hair color. I may text you.

Every Once in a While I Might Post

 Is that vague enough for you?  It has been a too busy complicated Spring.  I had no energy to blog.  All is well now, so I can share some things with you:   1. When I shoot photos of the moon I think of Dear Teresa.  Gone too soon. She took fabulous moon pictures.  2. I did not see one shooting star last night.  I only got up for a few moments around 3 a.m.  The local weather guy said he saw a few quick faint ones.   3. How can I can have one grown child in Oklahoma under flood watch, and One Child in Mexico under hurricane watch?  On the same day.  Tis true.  4. What have I knitted lately?  I am pretty sure I've ripped more than I've knit.  I ripped out a shawl that I was making up.  It was cotton and pretty.  I need to follow a pattern.  5. I was trying to make socks and decided to make mittens instead.  I haven't worked a thumb in a long time.  I may have to frog it too.  So I ha...

Dear buddy nurse and spay neuter pal Linda, came to visit yesterday.  We knitted. We laughed.  We shared books we are reading. She Showed me her scarf.  It looks like a shawl but it is a scarf. Here is her yarn choice. And the( OUCH) price.   It makes her happy to knit.  If Linda's happy I'm happy.  I dont' know the pattern and neither does she.  Her dog literally shredded her pattern.  She was at a point where she had memorized the easy part and she's nearly finished.  So there you go, anyone know the pattern? You are all so sweet about the move and the house. This morning I got my cuppa joe and headed to the porch to write you.  In the distance, my nearest neighbor, whom I can see through some trees.... well one of their teens came out, stretched, peed on their lawn casually, and then laid in his hammock for 5 minutes.  I'm sure he's not the first boy to do this.  I'm not even sure he's the...
