Well normal for us anyway, ha. All the decorations are down and packed away (except for one string of lights that look so lovely I'm keeping them up for now). Crochet projects underway with notepads getting full with lots of lovely new and exciting ideas.
We've been playing our new board game too. We all love it
Ticket to Ride
We all like board games and it's lovely that Imogen is able to play some 'older' age group games now.
Little Alfie must have been dreaming about crochet...
I haven't neglected my hooky and finished sewing up this cute owl this afternoon.
He is so lovely, from 'Crocheted Wild Animals' by Vanessa Mooncie
I changed a couple of things and used some yummy, bright yarn
I'm thrilled with him.
The dogs seem happy to see everything back to normal again... chilling out...
Do you see Penny has had a hair cut, hard to tell in these pictures, but she does look a cutie.
Take care

Cheryl little Mr Owl is beautiful! I love the colours you have chosen to use, Now then your little munchkins look totally chilled out there you could do with a few Shiddies to fill in the gap lol.
