Foto Friday - A bit delayed!

I am a bit delayed with this week's Foto Friday, as it's Saturday! I was enjoying the sunshine too much and took advantage of my Friday off!

Yesterday, my son and I went to a local dairy farm/ice cream stand. I decided to bring my camera along to see if I could snap some pics of the cows. Here are some of the results:

Cows in the field

Grazing Cows

This is a little Ferret that wanted to play with us!

Cute Baby Cow

Of course I had to sneak in one of my son!

Foto Friday - Baby Foxes

I have been playing around with the idea of doing a new Friday feature.

I am a big fan of photography. I love to take photos and I carry my camera around with me 95% of the time. I love to see people's reactions when they find a photo that moves them. I love how a photo can stir up memories that have long since been forgotten.

So on that note, may I introduce Foto Friday.

Every Friday I will feature my favorite photo(s) (taken by me - or by a guest) for the week.

I think that this is going to be a great challenge for me (and perhaps get my creative juices flowing!)

Today, I had the opportunity to get up close and personal to four baby foxes. They live under a porch at my work and they are the cutest things EVER! It seems that the mama fox comes back every year to have her babies. Everyone at work goes crazy for them! Today, I was finally able to snap some pictures of the little darlings!

Why hello there!

I think that this one is my favorite!

I love the little one peaking out in the background!

Aidez Knitting Project

On Saturday evening I started a new knitting project - yup I am SUCH a party animal. But in my defense, my other half had to work the night shift at his job and my son was in bed.

The project is called Aidez - which I got free here via Ravelry.com

Here is my progress as of Monday night:


I am LOVING the twists and turns of this pattern!! It is so fun to knit.

I got the yarn at a local craft store which is going out of business. I used to go to this place as a child with my aunt and/or grandmother. We would spend hours there browsing. This place will surely be missed! :-(

On a side note - I got A TON of yarn for 35% off! I may go back for some more before they close! ;)

Yummy Mummy Wristwarmers

I finished this project several weeks ago, but I have been busy making Patrick costumes and being Super Mom.



I am love with these wrist warmers! They are perfect for those spring nights, when it is quite not warm enough to wear a lighter jacket. I will wear these under my sweatshirts. They are sooooo warm! Since they are fingerless, I can still take pictures at my son's Little League games!

Linda K's Yummy Mummy wristwarmers

Yarn:
Loops & Threads Sophie in Cream. (I bought this yarn SUPER cheap at Michael's - it was on the clearance rack!)

Anyone else have any fun projects going on?
