The little joys of life

 1)I can finally wear this jacket I got on sale last year.
Hudson Bay coat
2)I spun my first yarn! Totally wonky, but it's a start:)
(In case you're interested, I got my supplies from Cheri at Acme Fibres. I always order from her. Highly recommend this online store.)

2-ply and single ply (from New Zealand Natural roving)

3)I can drink gallons of this, y'all!

4)Discovering old pics in the computer like these


5) Seeing your kid's smile 
 

Hope you're all having a wonderful weekend.

That's a pretty coat; I love the color. Nice to see pics of everyone. Did you change out your hair color again? God's blessings in the new week.

I did notice a guy a few days ago that has what your son had. Losing a condition like that is something to smile about.

I love nr. 4 and 5! How's your boy doing? Hope all went smoothly! I can see I've neglected my blog for a few days, let's see what I can do about it today. 4 more days to go until baby comes, I would very much hope he'll come out when planned.. if he decides to be in the oven a bit longer, what can I do..

What an awesome looking coat! I am looking for a new one too. Problem is, that I need one that will keep me warm on my bike, but I want one that is a bit ladylike too, which is a bit of a challenge. How's your boy doing?

Congrats on the yarn. I wonder if you're getting this diet Ginger Ale because you're in Canada. I can never find diet Canada Dry down here!

That's a really pretty jacket! I want a red coat. It's just a striking confident color. Hand over that Paris tshirt Emmy! I love it! That pink, yellow and white looks so good. Whenever, I think of spindle I think Sleeping Beauty. HaHaHa You look great doll.

 If you've been reading my blog for the past few months, then you know my love for Alabama Chanin. Here's the newest addition to my wardrobe. :) Alabama Chanin Flora Waffle Sweatshirt, worn with North Face jacket, UNIQLO pants, and Vans sneakers The organic waffle knit fabric is naturally dyed using Sappanwood sawdust, and the foliage design is hand-painted! What I love about Alabama Chanin is that many of their pieces are one-of-a-kind. PS It was my eldest's birthday when these pics were taken:) How was your weekend? Any new purchases lately?

Here are some recent shots taken with my Pentax K1000 film camera. I decided to mail my films and have them developed at Downtown Camera , and oh my gosh, you guys! Such a big difference with how they turned out. So so happy, and will be sending all my 35mm films to them from now on. (All these shots were how they were sent to me...no editing. Used Fujifilm ISO200 films.)
