Can you say Baaaa!



I must apoligize for taking so long to get things up and running! Things have been a bit crazy in life but I swear I'm working on that! I'm sure you can see I've changed a few things in the blog layout/look. This will be on going until I get my actual site up then no worries!

This is the kids playing with Playdough!


Lets see, lets see... OH! I've finally taken some pretty crappy pics of the the ol' stitchmarkers that I've made....


I also got Dad Rudd's Birthday gift (mom's too) off in the mail on Sunday. I love the 24/7 post office thingy! It's very much a handy thing! I started my Nirvana Smiles socks, and some that I wasn't so sure about my sister Jodi has claimed! Needless to say she gets the peacock socks!


I did start the Shoalwater Shawl, I'm like 57 rows into it and I'm loving it, HOWEVER, I started it in the wrong colorway and now I can't find any that match so I think I may have to mix some SM Gold and Novembre together, it's for me so what ever... Oh! I'm using my yummy yummy maligbrigo! By far my favorite so far! I dont have pics of it yet, which I have brought the camera home 3 times to do it and never do.... could be a good sign, could be a bad one, we shall see!

I'm still workin on the ol' list of things to do, it seems to get bigger and bigger every day! but what can I say!

So anyhow, I'm sure your all guessing about the Baaa! So here is the story.... My mom n dad Rudd are moving to a pretty secluded island off of northern Washington. They live on an island now called San Juan - but the other one - Stewart Island(?) - only has like 800 people that live on it. NEWAY they are going to be care taking on this island and will not only have pigs, chickens, but SHEEP! yeap you heard right! SHEEP! I nearly died when they told me! I want to live there, I'll live in a tent! I want to sit in the yarn with a spining wheel and watch the whales feed (killer whales that is). What a dream life! We are hoping to go out there this summer even with moving but we will see. I may never come home! Adam and I want to retire in that area, at least on one of the islands. Our dream home is on Orcas and is 1.3 Million.... I so need to win that lottery!

Anyhow, They are moving in May and have informed me that I am more than welcome to all the fleece I can handle (they have a barn full now and the sheep need to be sheared badly). I even told my mother in law that we'll sell it together and come up with a cool name! (they are known as the "Pirates" so I'm sure it'll have a priatey theme! I am VERY excited for them, and to be a tad bit selfish, I'm excited for me too! Hopefully it will all work out well!
