Central Park Hoodie

So I found the most amazing, beautiful, perfect, awesome,did I say amazing hoodie to knit ever!! You can find it here. I've decided to knit it in a nice Rich Ruby Red Color. Totally not normally for me, I normally stick with blacks and browns, but I decided to go out on a limb with this one. Here's a photo of my color: 

Pretty isn't it? I need around 3,000 yards of yarn to make the sweater, yes, I said THREE THOUSAND yards, that's 9,000 feet; that's a whooping 108,00 inches of yarn!!! Ahh that's alot when you break it down so far. I'm hoping to order my yarn in the first week of July, and the get started as soon as it arrives. I'll keep everyone updated on the sweater process with tons of pics. :D

My inlaws are leaving for LA Sunday, they're going to be gone from Sunday to around the first of September, and my SIL and her family will be here around the middle of July. We're having lots of people coming and going right now. We're still looking for houses, nothing yet.

The house hunt is on!

Adam and I have decided that we're going to skip the "renting rat race" and just purchase a home. I can't tell you how excited I am! We're looking close to his work and we have quite a few we're hoping to look at next week. I have so many ideas floating around in my head like do we want a 2 bedroom or a 3 bedroom? Or do we want a brick house or trailor? Yard or no yard? Big house or small house?
Let me tell you this house hunting isn't for the faint of heart, you fall in love with a house on the web,and then you go see it, and it's horrible! I found the perfect house for us yesterday, and we went to see it, it was soooo bad! The house had settled hard, and there were doors leading outside on all the bedrooms, the roof was bad. Ugh! Adam found a trailer with 22 acres yesterday, WAY out in the Country which is awesome! We can grow our own food, raise cattle, and pretty much homestead, but we have questions about it, and no one to answer them. Next thing on our agenda is get a Realtor so we can get in and look around these houses, instead of going around the outside.

In other news, Adam loves his job, really truely loves it. And I'm glad. Benjamin can now roll over both ways and is starting to move around and looks like he's ready to start crawling. We still haven't cut a tooth yet, but I wish they would hurry up!
