Easter Weekend

We had fun time our Easter's Day. We went to our Cache Valley Deaf Branch Activity last Saturday morning. We went to the park. Everyone is there. I was surprise about it. It was very cold morning. I wore a short pants. Lucky, I bought a coat. Wyatt had fun time play the playground. He had been running around. Emma had fun too. She dislike the swing. She is keeping climbing up the stairs of playground. I tried to put her to the grass and walk around on the grass but she is very stubborn and went back to the stairs. I don't want her to get hurt from the kids play around the stairs. So I put her in the stroller that which she was NOT very happy about it. We went to line up with the people and children to hold the boiled eggs on the spoon and walk straight then came back to the line. Wyatt was so good. Then Wyatt and I were tied up our legs together and held the spoon with the eggs and walked straight then came back. It was fun. After the game, We went and hunt the eggs. Daddy was with Wyatt to find some of the eggs. I went with Emma in the stroller and found some of the eggs. Wyatt loves to hunt the eggs. He keeping said "egg" over again all day. Unfortunately, we didn't take some of the pictures. We kept forgetting to bring the camera to any activities. Oh well. After we hunt the eggs. We went to eat with everyone in the park. I made the peach jello. We ate the lunch. During we were eating, we are so cold. We were hurried and ate then went inside of our van to get some warm. We went home. My parents came to our house from Bountiful. Wyatt and Emma got their candy from their grandparents. More candy, eh? I felt like it is a HALLOWEEN! Derek had to go back and sleep more because he had to work that night. On Sunday, We went to Derek's parents' house for Easter. We ate hot dog for lunch. We went and hunt the eggs outside of the house. It was nice weather than our branch activity weather. Derek's parents has a big yard and some junkyard. It is good reason to hide all of the eggs in the junk. Made it hard to find the eggs. We had to find the two big eggs. It was so hard to find them. Our nephew always found the big egg since I married my husband. I told Derek that is not fair. We hope that we will find a big eggs next year Easter. We got MORE candy and coins. We ate dinner with families. Wyatt had a lot of fun to hunt the eggs and hung out with his cousins. Derek went in the hot tub. He die hard loves hot tub. I was reading a book "Just Listen" by Sarah Dessen. Emma was just playing in the playpen with the toys. Wyatt was running around in the house with his two girl cousins. Wyatt need a boy cousin! Ha ha. We went to our church. Emma was cried in the nursery. I had to go and get her. Wyatt was in primary. He was a good boy. When I tried to leave the nursery, Emma won't let me go. I went to the mother room and tried to get Emma to sleep but couldn't. She ended up sleep in the van anyway. We had to leave early after we took the sacraments. That's our Easter weekend.

ZigZag Blanket

I am taking some time to knitting this blanket. It is huge blanket. It will take me forever to knitting. I am not in rush to get this done. I love the color. It is Coffee and Lavender color together. I have been knitting this for 3 days now. (April 25th to 27th)

Convertible Crochet Shawl

It took me a month to finish this project. When I started this project, I was in little stressful and nervousness after I was done with one row of the motifs. Because we were just nervous about the van that we was hoping to get one. We got a van. Then I finally back in motived to get this project done after my disaster of nervous. I love that color. I love the brown leather buttons too. It is fit but little bit loose. This can be a shrug or a shawl. I choice to be a shrug over a shawl. You can see my back, little bit loose but it is still beautiful.

Shrug Is Almost Finish

I want to show you what is block meaning....

On the right side, I pinned the motifs. It is looking beautiful when its after blocked. This will be permanent look after blocked. On the left side, I haven't pins it yet because I don't have enough of the pins to block it. That how it looks like if I don't block it. It looks like winkle and not neatly.

This has two ways to wear it: a shrug or shawl to wrap yourself. I prefer a shrug with leather brown buttons. I have a lot of the shawls in my closet. This will looks so pretty blue shrug on me.

Snowflake Earrings

I made these last Christmas 2009 for my sister-in-law. So why not I make one a pairs for myself. So I made them today. I added the gold beads on them to look more nicely than just plain. I used Aunt Lydia's Classic Crochet Thread Size 10. Natuarlly color. They are looking like a snowflake. This came from designer named Linda Parmann.

Toyota!

Derek gave up his big toy truck for a van. I am really thankful that I have a such awesome husband! Yes, we do still have a blue car. We had this truck for three years. It is REALLY bad shape. We can't afford to repair the truck. So I begged my husband to trade his truck for a van. We were looking for a van for about three months since. I told him that I want this to be over. I saw this Auto shop in Bountiful from my cousin Brandon's van. So why not we go down to Bountiful to look the van there in Affinity Auto. We saw one that I really fell in love with it. We almost get Honda Odyssey but it was too much price. Toyota is my second choice. The blue car is still GREAT shape. I bought a blue car in 2006. With my HUGE pile of cashes and it was paid off when I bought it. It was so nice. Mr. Truck, you served us like a crap!

We bought this from Affinity Auto. I fell in love with this! It is 2008, white, 48,000 miles. A blue car is too small for us to travel to Salt Lake City. A van is best for us to travel to Bountiful often to visit my families down there. The kids are loving it. Wyatt love to see how the doors slide open itself. We finally got this van yesterday afternoon. It has been on hold for a week and a half! My parents love it too. I just can't stop stare at it. :)

Light and Lacy Top

Finally it is finished. I started this in last January. I was not in motive for crochet because I wanted to knitting. Now I am back motivating to crochet this top. I finish last night. I use 100% cotton yarn light blue. This size is M, but it is very loose top. I will make another one when I am losing some weight. Love it. It is now on a long block board and obviously it is wet so I am blocking it. It will be a while to get it dry.

Granny Swatch

I think that is a pretty swatch. I am going to make a shrug. I will use light blue yarn. Not this color. This was came from Robyn Chachula. I used a small white board to block my gauge swatch to find the right size for my gauge into 4 1/2 X 4 1/2 square. This is not right size. It's 5 X 5 square. This shrug can becomes shawl. How to do that? Well, there will be button on side to close up another side to become shrug. If I want just shawl, then unbutton and wrap on me.

Angee socks are done!

Yay! I finished them last night. It took me ten days to knit them. It was pretty quickly project. I like that color. I used merino yarn. It is pretty fit my feet. I will make another in someday. I want to make one for Derek for church socks. It's fun project.

Aw!

Wyatt really wanted to take the picture of himself after I pictured of Emma. He was standing on his chair in the kitchen with his milk bottle. He is just silly little boy.

Aww! Yes, she is hurt. She fell down from the couch in family room. It was not that bad bleeding. After that happened, she was fine, laughing and playing around. This is her first "scar". Wyatt had his first black eye on both eyes when he was about early age 2. He was fell down into Emma's little crib in my bedroom.

Yes, poor my precious children. I don't remember what is my first hurt.
