I am so happy to be home. Vacation is exhausting… especially with a 5yo in tow. I am wiped out! But we had a great time visiting snow while we were there.
One very happy 5yo:
I took this picture of BC several hours after the snow started falling. The day before rain had melted all the snow. By the time the storm was over, the courtyard here was about 6 inches deep in snow with more falling. That may not be much for you all that live in snowy areas but it was plenty for one very happy little boy from Florida.
I had plenty of time for a vacation sock:
One sock… I finished the toe at home. As you can see, the second sock is on the way… can I avoid second sock syndrome? If I do, I’ll show it to you a modeled picture.
There was one very major mishap on the road. Fortunately, I had my medical supplies handy.
Lamb suffered a rear leg blow out. BC handed him to me and told me I could fix it. Such confidence! I had no sewing supplies with me and yarn was not going to do the job. Lamb got a bandaid. I was completely surprised that the bandaid worked! It is still working.
Lamb is a trooper.
I’m glad your hiatus was for a fun reason; I was thinking you had computer problems. BC must have been thrilled to play in the snow! Lamb sports his bandaid well.
So glad y’all found snow — BC looks so happy! What a great memory.
I like the colors in the sock(s).
Aww what fun! I do believe that second sock syndrome is best avoided by starting the second sock as soon as possible- so kudos to you on that!
Welcome back! I’m expected to fix everything, too. I like the challenge, but sometimes I wish the kids would stop breaking things! The bandaid was a good solution. :o)
