One Of These Things Is Not Like The Others

I just ran across this photo in my archived items and had to share.   April and I took a crocheting class in September of 2011.  (I might have shared this same photo then, but it cracks me up all over again.)  We both had previous crocheting experience, but wanted to take the class as a refresher and specifically to learn how to make granny circles with an outer square.  This photo shows my granny circle on the left and Pril's on the right.  They are supposed to be the same size.  They are not.  Also, you can see the instructor's circle up in the top left of the photo.  Hers looks similar to Pril's.  Mine looks like a monster.  Love it! 

Thanksgiving 2012

We traveled to Kansas City, MO for Thanksgiving.  

The highlights:

• Sam enjoyed his first nights in a hotel.
• We all had a great time in the swimming pool.  
• We enjoyed the kind hospitality of Brian's aunt and cousins.  
• I really appreciated the traditional Thanksgiving slush (with lots of yummy vodka), since I didn't get to partake last year. 
• We stopped at a fabulous scrapbook store on our way home and I got lots of goodies to get me started on next year's Project Life book.
• We ate too much.
• It was great (as usual) to spend so much time with the fam.
