Jumping in Mirror Lake at OSU 2008

Gus had his game day collar on. He is very camera shy, so I got this picture when he was sleeping.
This is Lindsay's freshman year at The Ohio State University. The BIG football game between OSU and Michigan is today. It is a tradition that everyone jumps in Mirror Lake the Thursday night before the game. Of course my girl jumped in and went under~twice!! It was in the 20's and snowing in Columbus, Ohio. Lindsay and her friends weren't arrested. LOL!! She's the one on the left in the pictures. Go Bucks!!

~*The Snowman Ball*~

I did a collage of snowman rugs from our Ebay group~PRHG that sold or is selling on Ebay. We are having a Snowman Ball November 1~30 on Ebay. There are more to come so check out PRHG on Ebay.

~*The Edited Version*~

I had posted a picture of this rug a couple posts back. It was on Ebay. I had a question from someone asking if I could change the year from 1841 to 1849. She said that she was from Loudonville and bought the Nelson Beem cabin on Pine Run Road. I asked her who she was and I knew who she is. My son is very good friends with her daughter. In fact my son is going to be in her daughter's wedding in April. What a small world.
Anyways, the next day she asked me if I could change the house into a cabin. First I said no then I thought why not. LOL! So here is the edited version.

~*Mr. Snowman Winter Tyme Hooked Rug*~

This afternoon I listed this rug on Ebay. It was hooked by me and is a Maria Barton~Star Rug Company design. Thanks Maria!!

~*Celebrate Veterans Day*~

~*Simple Goods Show*~

Yesterday I went to the Simple goods Show in Mt. Vernon, Ohio. There were so many people there. I bought this, it lights up. I'm going to put pine around it, haven't decided where to put it yet. I ran into Bobbie from Michigan. I saw her there last year, she's in BlestB and PRHG. I saw Kaye from PRHG. Kaye's famous now LOL!! Her house was featured in the Rug Hooking Celebrations Magazine. It was nice seeing them.



I also bought some dried oranges, gourds, pomegranates and a couple candles. I'm going to make garlands. Still need to go outside and collect Black Walnuts to put in the garlands.

~*1841 Home Rug*~

I just listed this rug on Ebay tonight. It is hooked by me and the design is out of the book With These Hands~Maggie Bonanomi. I love the book, if you don't have it I recommend it.

~*A Beautiful Fall Day*~

There are alot of oaks on our land. All the pine trees were planted by my husband's grandparents. It is so nice to look out and see green in the winter. Most of the other leaves have fallen. I've always wanted to build a house here. But we will leave it just like it is.


This is the last cutting of hay.
