Snakey Sunday...

He's sort of hard to see (the Munchkin's camera has a better picture, but I can't find the cord), but that dark shadow right above the bicycle handle was our Sunday visitor! Ella found him slithering across the patio in the backyard Sunday, and then my Hubby found him curled up underneath a table and behind the water guns on the side of the house. The Fire Department came, just a bull snake they said. But still...it was a snake!!! Ewww!!!!


The finished soccer banner -- they won 2-1 on a very, very hot Saturday afternoon!

The LittleOne "won" her game, too. (The won is in quotes, because they "don't" keep score at her age, but they know!) She scored two goals in her first ever game!!!!



And the Hubby's Eesti sock-- I did finish the toe yesterday -- I was having sock remorse, so I finished it. It's a really, really tall sock, I think he's going to wear them as house socks (when I get the other one started and finished)!

I added the darker band of yarn at the bottom of the leaf tee, and I think it will work. I want to do a few inches so that it's not too short on me. I'm going to add a boarder on the neckline of the darker yarn so that it will look like it was intended to have the dark at the bottom (does that make sense?).

And that wraps up my busy weekend in a nutshell. Happy knitting all!!

Yes, you definitely had a busy weekend, but at least you got your craft on!

Oh I would freak with a snake like that on my deck or near the house...
Love your cool banner! Congrats to the kids on playing soccer so well.

That is the greatest soccer banner in the history of the universe.

Oh my gosh, that snake looks so scary! I'm afraid I wouldn't have been able to stop screaming if I saw it! Argh!
