New Years 2010

Catherine and I made ice cream cones at the new years party we went to. The random guy who was taking care of the ice cream machine took a picture of us with our cones because he thought we did such an awesome job. We talked to him a little bit later, found out his name is Matt, and then he added me as a friend on facebook. I was facebooking today and saw this picture of me. Happy 2010! Oh, and later he asked my friend, Stessie, if I'm dating anyone. He has yet to call... I'll take a quick poll: Should I comment on the photo on facebook?

My head is lookin alot better, i'll probably have a scar- yes in the shape of a "?", and my nose- its looking a lot better.!!! (Mar you can still call me Ava)

So the next few pics were after we took off the band-aid. As you can see i am just as happy and smilin' as I was the day it happened! =)

1 project done, 1 billion to go

I finished a project! and there is a bag of levi's on my floor waiting to be made into a quilt, one slipper done that is lonely for its match, an embroidered table runner waiting to be finished, and a tablecloth that has been accumulating dust for I don't know, 5 years? etc, etc, etc. I got my new laptop back in October, but I didn't get a case to go with it because I thought maybe Santa might get one for me, but alas, I forgot to write Santa a letter and tell him what size. When I got back to Salt Lake I almost got out my little Sony Catalog, but then I realized that I could make myself a case. Here is my best attempt at a crocheted laptop cover. I somehow managed to make it just the right size and I am really happy with how the top flap turned out. The corners rounded much better than I was anticipating and I tuck the little flaps under the chain to keep them down. Not quite as sleek as the sony covers, but I saved myself $25, and I got to watch a few movies while I made it! I think I'm going to line it with some fabric so that things don't poke through the yarn and scratch it. And maybe I'll do that tonight while I watch another movie by myself instead of going on a date. I'm like a cat lady, without any cats......

Welcome to 2010!

Only in Monticello can you go skiing across the street, behind the temple, and make it to your little sister's best friend's house all the way across town and draw a heart in the field behind her house with your skis. I had a wonderful Christmas! I love you all!
