Help! They are taking over the ship!
hehe TRIBBLES!
Casey thought of it, not me… and it is his fabulous photoshopping handiwork above. (Is that a verb now, even if you don’t use that program?)
That is the first thing he thought of when he saw my photo display, below. ![]()

They are, of course, the hats my mom knit for Children’s Hospital- 11 of them!! Not bad for a weeks work- she says she even has a couple more to send me… go frecklemom!
I only have 4 done but our package will look pretty happy going to Mini thanks to mom.
We had a modest V-day celebration today. I know it is like *soooo not* cool to like Valentine’s Day but around here we like it. Mostly because it is an opportunity to eat yummy food (Finale desserts below) and give each other our homemade valentines- a tradition. I think I will try to rustle up some valentines of years past because they are pretty funny.
This year, Casey gave me 5 separate valentines each starting with “Jessica is…” He wrote a little something in each card, with little drawings too.
(I won’t list them but you can see it if you click on the picture, you nosy. hehe)
My valentine was a kinda crappy little knitted heart. I had envisioned it being a bit more impressive. Casey, of course, said he liked it.

ohmygosh, ohmygosh! SPA in 1 day!

I just read this posting and then scrolled down to earlier this week. My dad’s from northern Maine too. The potato picking pic looks sooo familiar. I got goosebumps!!!!!

The tribble episode is the BEST Star Trek episode ever… I wanted one so badly as a kid- I didn’t care that they got inside your electronics!
Such cute cards! I love reading warm and fuzzy Valentine’s stories!

I decided against being a nosy parker…I’m glad you two love birds had a wonderful VD.

Hi! It was sooo great to meet you at SPA! Sorry if I was a little “huh?” when you said hi in the vendor room— I get a little fuzzy in crowds (no hearing aid in) and it’s kinda tough for me. Love, love, love the HATS! tell your mom thanks and a big thanks to you too! Next year, I am going to be a bit more social at SPA… this year was just “figuring it all out”.
Maybe I’ll see you around the Boston groups!
