Bark in the Park

This year's event was even better than last year! More dogs...more money raised for the RVSPCA and lots of smiles...just check out the smile on these faces!



Mugsy even stopped by to have a doggie biscuit & woof with the boys! (for those outside of the area--the Salem Red Sox mascot is a dog...so appropriate)



Rudy was NOT to pleased with Mugsy...he would take a treat from him then bark like mad!

Of course they are both winners in my book not matter what but they won "Best Costume" for the event!



Just SO much fun had by ALL!!!

Keep on Knittin' & Spinnin'!!

Dogs on Thursday





Best Friends BROTHERS!!



My house is always a mess of dog toys and bones...during this rainy spring my kitchen floor is autographed with paw prints but at the end of the day I wouldn't want it any other way when I see a how much they love each other!




This Sunday is "Bark in the Park" at the Salem Red Sox -- yes, we are all going. Milo & Rudy both have their jerseys...one of the exciting changes this year are a few contests and a Pooch Parade on the field prior to the game.
Check out the webpage...yes, he's on the front of the brochure that's being distributed too! Ummm--and for some reason he thinks he's getting his breakfast in bed...served on a silver platter!!

Keep on Knittin' & Spinnin'!!

FO Friday



Another FO Friday is upon us! ....oh, and it's PAYDAY....sorry to get so excited....

Well, I've had lots of baby knitting here lately--and still yet more to come, great for stash knitting!

Rudy's groomer is due this weekend and having a little girl. I made her a BSJ with some very special buttons.




Doggie buttons!!



Then there's the most difficult socks in the world...




Late last year you know about my uncle and his fight for life. Well, I started a pair of "prayer socks" for him...I had one complete when he suddenly passed away at the first of the year. So, I frogged them and began a pair of socks to give to my aunt. They were difficult not because of the pattern but because of the fact that I had a hard time wrapping myself around finishing them...all the while knowing they were intended for him.

Next on the needles? Another baby girl gift, pair of socks and I want to make Effortless Cardigan in linen for summer.
What do you think? Have any other suggestions for me?
