Love my weekends.

I had a good weekend. It was peaceful and relaxing. I started knitting a vest for LJ which I hope will be his Easter vest. I think it may end up being a little big but I figure its better too big than too small. It's a soft gray yarn I picked up on sale at Michael's. I also cast on for a pair of fingerless gloves. I've always wanted to try them but was scared of the thumb opening. I came across a pattern for a pair with a cable running down the top and fell in love.  I started on the first glove around 3:00 this afternoon and just finished up (7:00). Not too shabby for trying something totally new. The second glove should go quicker because I don't have to stop to read the pattern 100 times and scratch my head trying to figure out what I'm doing.  (I did alter the pattern a little by starting my ribbing at the top on the 5th row instead of the 7th.)

I got to keep Colton last night while Rick and Chrissy went to visit Ben in Athens. He was such a sweetheart. He enjoyed hanging out with LJ so much. 




We all camped out in the living room and had a good time. The girls came home in time to hang out before Colton left. Then the girls and I watched Percy Jackson Sea of Monsters. I love spending time with my kids.
