Ball Hockey Sprin 2009


Mac played a bit of ball hockey this spring, he didn't really enjoy it and we found that he was more interested in playing hockey with the neighbourhoood kids then going to his games.


Next year he will not be registered. He had fun at the games he went to.


Roxanne 1997 - 2009 RIP




It has been sometime now since we had to put our loving girl to rest. She is missed by all of us.

More of my Postcard collection






























I love getting postcards from all over. I have many friends that send them to me when they travel and I also joined Postcrossing, a great sight for exchanging postcards.


I'm just teaching myself to crochet. I haven't done much yet. I have a few things on the go and find that my biggest problem seems to be tension. I think that practice and time will help with this.

This is the back and front of my first crochet dishcloth that I made for an exchange in the group At My House . The perfectionist in me would have liked to rip it out and redo it but I also know that I would never be completely pleased. I'm going to keep practicing until I get it better. I'm going to try some more of them when my other projects are finished.



I also made this potholder for the same exchange. A bit simpler but still needs work. Jamie was impressed.






Hearts Exchange

Tato, a great friend and the owner of one of my favorite yahoo groups "coffeecake" organized a gfelt heart exchange this winter. I really enjoyed it. Here are the hearts that I sent out












I received some really nice hearts. From some of my great friends
