Happy New Years!~2014!!!

Hello Everyone! Happy New Year! 

I can hardly believe that it is already 2014! This year has flown by so quickly!

I also hope that everyone had a very Merry Christmas! I am so sorry that I have not posted in so long! I have been so super busy! 

Christmas gifts, family gatherings, church gatherings... ect. So I have been planning this post for a long while, I just really have not had the chance, or motivation to get to it. 

So here it is! (Warning, it may be very long!)

Okay, so awhile back, (the second week of November) I posted about some dishcloths I had made. Well, I used that pattern some more, (a LOT more) and I made so many dishcloths! here are some pictures of the different color combos!

 

I made this first set for my Grandma, using three different shades of blue. 

 

These pink ones, I made for a friend of ours, my Dad works with her husband, and they have us over every year after Christmas, we order Pizza and play games! (Notice our Christmas tree reflection in the picture :D)

These Purple ones, I made for our pastors wife, since purple is her favorite color!

I made these orange and yellow ones, (The yarn color is carrot, and cornmeal) for a lady at our church, they have us over every year on Christmas day, and we eat Christmas dinner, play games, and exchange gifts. She also asked me to make a set for her future daughter-in-law, but I forgot to take pictures, I made them in the color frosted pine, which was like a mint green, and then an off white, with mint green, orange, and brown flecks.

My Sister bought me a necklace, and it came in this adorable little box! Those were my Christmas nails :) red and Glittery!

Here is the necklace she bought me! I Love it!

The family who's house we go to on Christmas day, each year, their daughter made each of us a no-sew blanket! I LOVE Mine! it has owls, and birds all over it, and it is the warmest thing! It drapes off of my bed, so it can cover my whole body! I Love it!

My Parents bought me the warmest slippers I have ever had! They are called Bobs, and Sketchers makes them!

The Lady who made me that blanket also gave us this! An adorable owl pillow!

Our pastors daughter gave me these! And I LOVE them! they are silver mustache earrings covered in rhinestones!

 

 

 I made this for the Lady who made my Blanket, sorry for the blurry picture.....

Okay, and the last thing, up above, is an ear warmer, that I made, and I am really quite pleased at how it turned out, since I made up the pattern for it!

So that is what I have been working on for the past Month, and I already am getting orders for more things I need to get done! So I am taking this week off, and am going to start working on more projects!

So I have been thinking about what my new years resolution should be, and I decided to share what a few of mine are!

1. Read the Bible through in a year, once, twice, it doesn't matter, as long as I do it.

2. Try to be in a constant state of prayer, everyday.

3. Be a Happier, and nicer and caring person.

4. Write 100,000 words or more for my story, this year, before November.

5. Complete the NaNoWriMo in November, and complete the 50,000 Words

Well that is all for now! Sorry for such a Long post, but I had a lot of catching up to do! :)

 Happy New year!
