I've been away from the blog for too long, I know. Here's what I've been up to:
The Fray Concert
Lounging around the house with the dogs
Many evenings spent running and playing with the dogs at Montrose Dog Beach
Trying new restaurants and eating out ALOT.
The No Doubt Concert (awesome).
John Legend and India Arie at Ravinia. We made a new friend, Hi Georgia!
Chicago Criterium.
Dad's Birthday. We ate and played bags in the backyard.
Richard got a new hat! I knit him the Koolhaas hat.
The Jason Mraz Concert.
Richard had so much fun at the Chicago Criterium, he decided to enter a race in the Downers Grove Criterium and he did great!
My little sister went away to college. She loves U of I.
I knit her and her roommates matching drink cozies in U of I colors.
Finished two Christmas stockings and cast on a third.
Cast on a Herringbone Neck Warmer and am almost done with Erin's socks.
And sadly, a Goodbye Party for a friend who is following her dream of being a singer and moving to Austin. Look out Texas!
After such a hectic summer, I have begun knitting on a lot of Christmas presents and will keep you posted on my progress. Christmas is only 16 weeks away!
