I won a contest!

I came home last night (after working for 12 hours every day this week!) to check out just a few of my favorite blogs, then head off to sleep.

I went to Little Cotton Rabbits and I see this:I hover over the 'Dawn' and see www.neknitsandbeads.com pop up and go "I WON, THAT IS ME!!"

I basically got my second wind at that point and didn't get to sleep for a few more hours!

What did I win you ask? Handmade needles from Kerry at Penny Dog. You can find her here on Etsy and her own website.

Kerry has since contacted me and now has my preferences. I can't wait to receive them and show them off to you!!

I know, I owe you completed knitting projects...I'm just waiting for some daylight around here.

As for your bunny photo, how is this:
My MIL purchased this while we was visiting Hawaii. Over the years it has gradually turned darker. Interesting.

Family Photo

We, as shown above in our family photo, are filling in for a little bit while the missus is busy studying.
Apparently her designation exam is coming up real soon and she needs all the time she can get to study.

Although... we have found her knitting when she said she was going to go study...
but her secret is safe between us right?
You won't tell will you?!...I mean we would hate to get her in trouble.

Anyway, as you can see from our photo we have excellent accommodations.

The grass is always green, the missus of the house placed us next to Dottie.
You can see Miss Dottie's bunny slipper in our photo if you look real hard.
You can find out more about Dottie on her page.

We also have a birds nest next to us. It provides a nice place to take a nap.
The missus and mister of the house found the nest in the driveway a couple of years ago.
They told us the birds had grown up and left the nest, so the bird's parents
really didn't need the nest anymore cause they were something called
'empty nesters' now.

Well off to turn in for the evening. Hopefully, the missus will be back shortly.
'Cause all this hopping around the keyboard typing this was back breaking.
