Old Money

One of our prize possessions was this old ten dollar bill from 1934. It was a much brighter green than bills are now, but sadly the color didn't come out well in any pictures I took. We kept it for over a year figuring it was too much of a treasure to spend, but then we decided it was time for it to move on. I spent it last month at a pizza place and the guy there thought it was so cool he said he was going to keep it. So at least I know it is still being loved!

White Elephant

We found this inflatable white elephant in a castle. We wanted to take it home but it wouldn't fit on our bikes. Actually it was on display for Boston's First Night celebrations, which also included fireworks, a parade, and tango lessons.
Happy 2007!

Cloudlet


This little guy was a present for my mom. Hopefully it will be the first in a series of little felt creatures. Only if I stop procrastinating and get my papers done, though.

Bear Clothes


Doesn't this bear have an amazing fashion sense? So stylish. Thanks to Sarah for the picture, I knitted the clothes for her for the secret santa and she brought them home to Lauren the Bear, just in time for the blizzard. Good thing she got those warm clothes, otherwise she'd be freezing her paws off.

Penguin Present!





This is my new penguin! Sadly, I did not make her, but Sarah did! I know, one eye is bigger than the other, but it's not her fault, she was just born that way. The big question is, what is in that present??

Leaf Cards


A few cards I made a while back. They should have been "happy autumn" cards but they didn't get sent to anyone and here it is almost winter. Sad.

Happy Hannukah!
