The Golden Compass!

Went to see The Golden Compass yesterday...it was sooooo good! Hope they make more of the movies! Have no idea what all the hoopla is about...they did this with Harry Potter too...don't people/critics understand what the work FICTION means! Oh well, everyone is welcomed to their own opinion.

Knitting some gifts so can't post or mention what they are....nope, haven't worked on the toe ups either...they're sitting their staring at me though saying finish me, finish me!

Christmas Tea!

Last night I went to our church's Christmas Tea. My mom, grandma and aunt went with me and we had such a great time! The had a huge raffle...my grandma won a family fun gift basket that had a fleece throw, Nativity book, Max Lucado dvd, and a 24 piece puzzle. She gave it to Jimmy and he immediately opened it, wrapped himself in the blanket, read the book, and put the puzzle together. They sang a lot of Christmas carols, the pastors wife told a beautiful, heartwarming story, and lots and lots of yummy goodies. All different kinds of cookies, scones with devon cream or lemon curd (which my mom ate plain), gingerbread cake, and a variety of teas. Our table was just gorgeous...each table is done differently but I think we got the most elegant one! Pink crystal, rose tea set, gold and crystal settings...just beautiful! Nope forgot to take a camera! Had a wonderful time...a time to remember! Can't wait till next years!

I'm Buddy!

This is one of my favorite movies! Just watched it again last night!

So nice...

A lady (Lien) at my husbands work went to Chinatown today and bought me these figurines..they bring good luck. I've been making cookies/bread every Tuesday for the past three weeks and she wanted to show her appreciation....and that I'm part of the family. Aren't they the cutest! My front bathroom is done in bamboo and these go perfect in there! That was just so nice of her...I've never even met her. He's very blessed to be surrounded by a bunch of great people. When I did meet some of his coworkers they couldn't keep from saying such nice, wonderful things about him. I'm the one truly blessed!

Not a happy model!

Miss Fuji does not like to model her fancy sweaters! She has a whole drawer full that I've knit her and thought it'd be cute for her to do a model shoot! She's not going for it at all. Hmmm....here kitty, kitty, kitty...:)

Fuji Decorating!


Fuji is tuckered out from decorating the tree. She has her ever faithful froggy with her that she takes everywhere. Maybe she's making her wish for what she wants Santa to bring her! :)

Jimmy Mitts!

Just finished Jimmy's mitts! Made with Malabrigo....so soft and cuddly! I like Malabrigo way better than the Manos...I'll have to make me some with Malabrigo now. Love the colors too.

Feel rather poopy today. Definitely a sinus infection...burning, burning sinus', throbbing head...laying on the couch in my pj's, drinking Pumpkin Cream Pie tea, and watching Christmas movies. Off to a nap though now with my eucalyptus candle and sound machine making rain noise. La la la, la la la....
