Castle in the Country Mugs

Last week was Spring Break so my husband and I took a little vacation back to the lovely bed and breakfast that we went to for our honeymoon.  Even though it was just a short couple days, it was SO relaxing!  The food was just as amazing as we remembered!  We stayed in a different room this time, and it was so beautiful and spacious!  I think Tarcil missed us, but we brought back these wonderful mugs as souvenirs, which he enjoyed checking out.  :)

Cup Cozy

I love Saturdays!  It's nice to sleep in and have a relaxing day with my husband and furry family!  I made this cup cozy which is prefect for a nice, hot cup of coffee to start a lazy day.  :)

Big Boy!

When I look back at pictures of Tarcil from shortly after I first got him, I realized what a big boy he is now!  He used to be so tiny!  I mean, look at him!  His body and face have lengthened and of course he got fatter.  Haha.  :)

Here is what he used to look like if you don't remember.  Look at that squished little face!!  :)

I Don't Want to Look!

Tarcil's hair is always a sight to see when he first gets out of bed!  I think he was too embarrassed to look.  Hahahaha!  I don't think he needs to worry because we all think he is still super cute no matter what his hair looks like!  :)

Simple Crochet Flowers

I am really loving how easy it is to crochet!  I made these simple flowers that are so versatile!  I am sticking with simple, fast projects that are all one color and flat for now.  Eventually after more practice, I will try more colors and doing the cute stuffed animals.  I like that I can be productive while still relaxing in the evenings with my husband with these little projects!  I am sure you will see lots more of these yarn projects!  Tarcil really seemed to like these little flowers.  :)

Making a Headband

I made this headband!  It went really quickly!  I did kinda mess it up (accidentally reduced the number of stitches per row at some point while making it), but you can't tell unless you are looking for it.  I made a matching one for my sister.  I think Tarcil wants me to make one for him, but I don't think I could make one small enough for his tiny head.  :)

Learning to Crochet

I taught myself how to knit over Thanksgiving break last year, and ever since then, I have been wanting to learn how to crochet.  So I went back to YouTube and learned how to crochet.  To be honest, I love crocheting better than knitting!  It is so much faster and more intuitive to me.  This square is the first piece I did!  So easy!  Tarcil liked seeing my work.  :)
