January

The new year is here and so are adventures.
Starting with Quentin. The boys decided to try out new hill across our river. Down the hill went Quentin, crashed his sled in a branch. The sled stayed, while Quentin flew to the bottom of the hill, unharmed and laughing away.
And then the attack of his sled. It came lose, followed him down and CRASHED into his lower lip. Which lead a run to the hospital to get 4 stitches.
Quentin was very brave. He tries to laugh about his jokes that he tells about getting into a fight and getting his share of it.
The next subject is our Ranch. For some silly reason we used to fill little salad dressing bottles for easy handling. Why not try a syrup bottle? This way the ranch only has 220 calories per 1/4th cup!

Hi Joy!

We weren't sure of your email address, so we figured out we could leave a message here!

Could you give us the pattern for mittens? You told me (Kelsey) a while ago, but I forgot. Knitting is a good wintertime project I think :) Oh, thanks so much for the yarn!

It was fun looking at your site!

Hello Kelsey and Lauren!
Here is a good pattern online,

http://www.knittingonthenet.com/patterns/kidsmittens.htm

Even though the pattern calls for double pointed needles, it can easily be done with normal needles. For a nice appearance, make the thumb in the middle of your work. If you have any questions, feel free to ask!!
