Striped shorty socks

Now for something yarny and handknit. My last pair of socks for 2011...I'm always in the process of knitting socks but I don't think I'll finish another pair this year.

I made them shorties mostly because I'm lazy, was in danger of running out of this leftover yarns so I stopped. Still they're really cute although I'm gifting these to a dear friend. Lots of yarn in my bins so much more to follow...

And here is the big brother of B (from previous post). He is quite a character and has some great expressions.

Big Bite

What's a family gathering without some adorable pics of the youngest members of the family? This is B, our nephew's little girl. She was really enjoying this sweet treat with powdered sugar and I happened to be nearby.

Actually, the kids made it pretty easy for me to photograph them. I sat in a spot near their momma and they'd come by. I had lots of fun and hopefully soon, I can set up another time to take more pictures of them and practice.

Still here, recovering from that nasty cold but much better. I'm trying to keep the kids entertained and sequestered from us sick parents and in a week, we will see how our efforts paid off.

I'm still behind in posting and hopefully I can get caught up soon.
Our hostess

We celebrate Christmas Eve at my SIL, Lupe's house and here she is, relaxing with a glass of wine. She does a great job letting us come to gather and be loud.

It's 12-28-11 and I'm battling a nasty cold that knocked me on my butt. Hector now has the same thing but it seems worse and we're trying to keep it away from the boys. Our holidays were very good considering we are sick.

I'll post some pics now but hoping by January I will be back to normal.

Tamales, rice and beans

Just some of the food that we had Christmas Eve....

Shadow across wooden foot bridge
We were at Polliwog Park yesterday and while walking back from the big duck pond, I noticed this shadow a large chain on the wooden footbridge was casting. I remember one of my original themes for this 365 project was shadows so I pulled out the camera to try my hand at it.

I like it and it goes to show you the best camera to have is the one you're carrying. Or something like that!
