Something for my GrandDaughter

My DIL gave me this really great bag one year .....and I happened to make a copy to carry with me to WHIBSIB......while there a few of the ladies 'mentioned' that it might be nice if I made a few of them up to sell....hmmm???

We are heading to Minnesota to Lake Blackduck and meeting up with the family....and since Journey 'may' want to knit with GramMa I decided to use her as the guinea pig for future knitting bags.

We always find a little time to knit together so I thought it was time for her to have an Always Alice bag.........and this is what came of it.......

The bag measures 12X6in at the base and is about 10in deep
there are pockets on one side....

..and I found the BEST buttons ever that work perfectly.........
I have filled the bag with some yarn, new needles, a pattern to try, and other little notions that you NEED when knitting.......Think she will like it??

Someone turned 3

Yesterday was a hallmark day for our Jasen Paul
He began the wonderful age of 3
We were invited over for Birthday Hot Dogs and Cupcakes
Then the fun began.
 

next was presents....
..then we moved outside for a little Dirt Dancing..
....and....
Just the day before Jase and Lilly had been to our house for an afternoon.  When they were leaving Jase went over to PopPa D and says "I really wish I had leaves at my house to play with too".
Now I ask you.....what was PopPa D to do?
Next thing I heard was "I am going to go bag him some leaves"....then after a bit I heard..."One isn't enough".....so two bags were delivered for Birthday fun!
....
....this wore out PopPa D...
..so what else is a GramMa to do?
...why take his place of course...
You might have noticed that it was getting dark in the pictures...so we finally had to say it was time to go.......besides I had leaves in places that I am not really sure how they got there.
Happy Birthday Jasen Paul!
We had so much fun celebrating with you

Where has my head been?

 
I have yet to introduce the newest member of the Sharp Clan........and she is 4 months old!!!
So let me begin from the beginning...........

This is Addyson Ann Sharp........who joined us August 22
as you can tell.....both GramMa Alice and PopPa D instantly fell in love.......
 
 She had a Fan Club even before leaving the hospital.....

 
and now she is 4 moths old and really intersted in her Cousins Jasen and Lilly.....It won't be long before she is up and following them around!
 
....expect to see many more pictures of her and the other pieces of my heart...
 
...sometimes you wonder if a heart can grow...
...just just add another Grand to the mix and you will see it expand more than enough...
 
Our heart now holds
 13 Grandchildren
and
4 Great Grands
