Opinions please...

So I'm working on a new addition to my shop, an Afro hat.  I've asked a few people what they think and have received positive feedback.  I would offer it in a variety of colors.  The yarn is the same as my lion hat so try to picture that.  I want more opinions and I will post a picture in a few days.... so what do you think?

First Give Away!

Know anyone that's having a newborn? Great baby shower gift.  Cute fuzzy brown bear hat.  Have your friends follow my blog and they'll be entered to win! Oh and you will too since you already follow, in fact I might enter you first three twice!

I suck at Father's Day

So this morning my hubby wakes me up and it is almost 11:00 (that's when our church starts) oops.  My alarm didn't go off.  I go downstairs and wake up the kids, who were faking asleep and had been up for hours.  We were going to make Dad pancakes and that didn't work so well, we were out of eggs.  so that also meant no french toast, no muffins, no scrambled eggs.... hmmm what's left.  Oh look! We have some chocolate snak paks.  So yes that's what he got for Father's Day breakfast..... lame.  Oh and the kids are already fighting. joy.... well now we'll get ready and go to the inlaws and cross our fingers that the day improves, for the hubby's sake

here we go....

So here I am trying my hand at blogging, who would have thunk?  I'm not sure how great this is going to be, I'm not a great writer like some of the bloggers I'm friends with.  I decided to do this to help get my etsy shop "out there" and I thought it might be fun just to get my thoughts on other things out here as well.  So anyway, I'm Jamie. Hi. I have three kids, a hubby (sometimes referred to as my 4th kid), a big rottweiler (Karma), three lizards and a tarantula.  I teach science to "at risk" or "troubled" teenage boys and love it.  I also crochet, mostly baby hats, and love it too.  I started my etsy shop to raise money for the Avon Walk for Breast Cancer.  My older sister was diagnosed last fall and is now finished with the main portion of chemo.  My younger sister and I are participating in the walk in Santa Barbara in September.  Anyway, I'm not sure how to do this whole blogging thing, how to add links and pictures and stuff, so it will probably be a mess while I'm trying to figure all that out....
