Sliding at the Houston Livestock Show
As the weather turns warm in Texas, our thoughts turn to animals... Well, at least the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo.

It was fun and way more Mommy friendly than those rides that spin in circles!
You wonder about knitting? Well, Bless is knitted and sitting in a pile. Once I can clear out the wash machine I will soak and block her. I have to find a nice long zipper somewhere... but then I might have another FO!
