Love Belated!

Well I never even thought that with this post, I would get to see these up close and personal.
I received a belated Birthday package!


We got home in time to see Rob walking up with the mail and as he brought it in, I was going back out with Coco. She needed her last set of puppy shots and just seeing the pretty package made me smile and brightened up a really long day at work, let alone a HOT ride home in the truck with no A/C, but I had to wait as we were running little behind. Nick took me in his truck to the vet, his A/C works! Anyways we got back home, I put Coco down and I ran for the package, it was from Chan ! I wasn't sure what I'd find inside, I really wasn't expecting anything, but this is what I found inside..

Thank you Chan, so very much! I have a new book now and it talks about all kinds of felting, (I kinda thumbed through it real quick). The note pad is pretty (& purple)and goes well on my desk. Well curiosity got me for the smaller package, it was soft so I guessed it was something she made, never in a million years did I expect these

OMG do you know how much I loved these socks when I first saw her post about them? I fell in love with the colors, it was love at first sight. I love that they are different and their a combo of knit and crochet and their beautiful and they fit really great!! See

(yeah, big feet, but you have to remember I'm really tall ) :) These are now my birthday socks and I can't wait to show them off.


Thank you so much Chan !! You really made my day and surprised the hec out of me, too and I'm so proud of you with your crocheting. Your doing better then I with knitting..lol Though I'm ready to move onto more than a cloth now...lol

I"m so lucky to have all my blog friends, I love you all! Happy 4th to everyone!! Be safe and stay cool!

Hooray! They fit! I knew you loved the colors and the motif... Now, you have your own bit of the Blue Ridge Mountains with you whenever you miss VA and the east coast.

Sorry they were so late, but if I'd been on time, the socks wouldn't have been yours!
