Valentines Day

Wow, this has been an incredible Valentines Day. My hubby surprised me today by calling me at working and asking me to meet him out by the front door. When I get there, he has a basket full of chocolate dipped strawberries from Sherri's Berries. Then I get home and what is waiting for me in a nice UPS pkg. My llama roving. I attempted to try to learn how to spin on one of my new drop spindles. Boy, it is a lot harder than it looks on video. I went to www.icanspin.com and www.joyofhandspinning.com to learn how to spin. These sites have wonderful videos and information.

Here is a picture of my llama roving and attempt at spinning.


Now for the grand finale of the day. My mom sent my kids each a handmade Valentine's Card. She has once again out done herself on the "Oh My God, this is so awesomely cute" meter. Just look for yourself. They are multi-dimesional and beautifully done. What talent. Since she is my mom, I can only hope I inherited at least a smidgen of her talent. These cards are amazing.
