...after a year long hiatus!

My oh my, how time does fly. It’s been a year my blog since we last conversed. I thought of you frequently in that time, but each time I started a post life got in the way. How should we catch up? Some pictures perhaps..?

I finally finished my friend’s knit bear hoodie set. Took forever but it looks so adorable on! The picture is so out-dated now though, Brilynn has grown so much!!

We also made two more small sized additions to the house... This is Jack (left) and Yoda (right), my two little ferrets. They can be quite the handful, but I wouldn’t have it any other way!

Christmas has also come and gone. We decorated the outside of the house this year. The lights were such a nice treat to come home to, but the electric bill was brutal. We really spoiled the pets this year too! Sadie needed a new bed and some squeaky toys (her favorites are the Martha Stewart ones I got on clearance). The boys Jack and Yoda got a tube play-set and some star toys with bells and crinkle paper in them.

Let's see... More recent events that I'm still uploading pictures for include, but aren't limited to the following:

• A trip to the Denver Zoo with our friends Aaron, Yvonne and their son Noah.
• Getting our basement work started! In a little over a month we'll have a game room and ferret play space.
• I got a new car! 2005 Volkswagon GTI
• My sister joined the Peace Corps! You can follow her journey over at Another Sense of Place
• Our friends Sarah and Nathan got married in Boulder, Co.

I think that is pretty much the gist of whats happened this year. I'm sure there's more, but those are the highlights that I have for now. I'm working on another Punchout cross-stitch, Little Mac and Doc Louis this time. I'll post some progress of it soon!

...and again sorry for the neglect but sometimes life calls. ;-)
