Finished object

I finished the fingerless gloves on Monday. I like them - even if they don't match my coat.

Introducing...

Mr. Simon , the white belt
Mr. Ian, the Gold belt


Both boys got promoted to a new belt this week. Simon got his belt on Wednesday and Ian received his on Thursday after he demonstrated his skills. Ian was so excited and did a really good job of focusing on the movements. Simon was a little bit jealous though because he wanted a colored belt AND to be able to demonstrate infront of the group.

pssst....

It's quilted...
I would like to be able to say it is the first finished object of 2010, but it doesn't have the binding on yet. It will be though by the end of the week.

Ooh baby, it's cold outside

But not too cold for the boys.

The two words that are striking fear in their hearts:
JANUARY THAW


They spent over an hour outside on Friday afternoon working on a fort and it is not done. They are not happy about the weather report of thawing snow. It would be terrible for construction.

(and he wonders why he has chapped lips)
