Gettin’ It Pegged…Loom Knitter’s Clique

If you had 5 years, and a giant stash of pink yarn the size of a house…what would you do with it?

Well, a GIANT pink rabbit on an Italian hillside that is, as you can see, definitely bigger than a house, probably wouldn’t be my first idea…but this is exactly what these people did!  Click on the pic to discover what motivated this interesting creation. 

We loom knitters would need an awfully big loom to create this baby…then just consider the waiting time on that order!  Yikes!

Another thing we did over the weekend, was to go see the new movie out…

*The Spiderwick Chronicles*

This was a great movie!  All four of us enjoyed it thoroughly, which makes it an excellent “good for most ages” kind of fun. 

*Warning:  There are some pretty tense moments, and somewhat scary beasts…so for really young ones, or scaredy-cats  ;)  , it might not be the best viewing.

Our Family Rating:  Top Notch!  We give it 5 Stars!!!

My kids and I created these pumpkins at my work for displays…I had to take pictures to share with you before they were all sold (I did create an absolutely perfect skeleton pumpkin that was all spiral cut down the middle with a sculpted skull head wearing a top hat, lapel and bow tie, but he was bought before he could model for me, to display in an antique shop…don’t you think that’s perfect for a skeleton? The lady said she would send me a picture by email…I’m crossing my fingers-I loved that guy!

Here’s hoping you’ll enjoy a Very Happy Spooky Halloween!!!

Don’t be SHY…Click on the Ladybug…you’ll like it, I promise! 

I was going through my family’s photos with an idea buzzing around in my head for a new post, when I came across these really spooky look-alike photos.  Perfect for the Halloween season!

The first I will show you is of my husband.  The top picture was taken in 1988, by myself, while we were dating.  He’s posing proudly in front of his first car…yes, it is a Pinto …in front of my parent’s house.  Notice how he’s standing with his left leg in front of his right, his hands in his pockets, even the expression on his face and where on the car he is leaning. 

 The bottom picture was taken in 2003, by my father,  in front of another new car, also taken in front of my parents house.  Notice how exactly alike the two pictures are!  Even the gap of 15 years doesn’t make any difference to the essence of the photos.  CREEPY!!

The next 2 pictures are of myself and my oldest daughter Emily.  The first one is me, in 1986, 10th grade.  The second one is Emily, in 1999, her 2nd grade picture.  How weird is that?! (insert Twilight Zone theme song…)

Do you have any eerie photos like these…dopplegangers that appear  13-15 years later, or more?  Tell me about it in the comments…I’m ready for a good creep out!  After all, it’s almost Halloween.
