Hey!

Remember those houses they were working on a while back - over on the newest section of our development?  They are really making headway on them.....they already look like houses.
We walked near there today, but they had the gates to that area closed so we couldn't get in.  We could see them in the distance as we wandered over to check out the big pool at the clubhouse.

It looks really lovely, but there is a sign on the gate that says "Pool Closed".  The last two years while we were here, there was no water in that big pool, so it is nice to see it up and running.

While I've been working on lace for Auntie Colleen, Taffy wanted to work on more socks - so her and I sat down and went through all our odds and ends of yarn - made all the larger balls into two equal balls - sorted the colours into groups that we thought would work well together - and then chose the group that we thought Mommee would like.  I think tomorrow Taffy is going to start a pair from this group.

There is one sock in each bowl - we'll post pictures as they progress.  Taffy likes to work on socks when there is a good program on TV, since she can make socks without really looking at what she is doing.  Lace requires way more concentration to make sure the holes are in the correct places - but oh what fun it is - maybe when she gets older she'll graduate to lace!

Back home - here is Munchie displaying that amazing ability to get his feet up onto his high chair table - still!  While he is still swimming, he is also considering gymnastics for the next olympics.  Daddee would much prefer hockey though. (Yay - Canada!)
And.... due to Uncle Shaun's propensity to take amazing photos....we can see that there is still lots of snow on the lake and folks are still ice fishing - along with their children.  Isn't this cute?

  1. I'm reading backwards. That's how those funky socks came to be. Love them.

    Will you be able to swim in the pool when it is open? Oh wait! You have your own private pool...

    It's always fun when I can link to your blog for Shaun to see his photos!
