I made it!

I hope everyone's had a wonderful christmas! It's been a pretty good one here, spent with great friends. And lots of pie. You won't believe the amount of pie I've eaten in the last 2 days. I should have taken pictures!

Couple of pics to share tonight. Almost every spinner here will recognize this gift...

I got a new golding spindle to add to my collection! This came from my friend Jon.. who I made that Flying Spaghetti Monster for. I'd say he did good!

Tonight we went out to look at Christmas lights. thanks to the internet (isn't it a wonderful thing?) we found out about Decon Daves and had to go see it. Oh my word!

That's just the trees visible from the front of the property. There was a walking tour to see the rest of the lights so we passed on that. But from what we could see it was pretty amazing!

As for the title of this post... yes, I made it posting every single day from Nov 1st to Christmas! I still can't believe I did that since prior to that I think my record was about 3 consecutive days! I won't lie and say it was easy because it wasn't. but at the same time it wasn't a hard as I thought it would be! Will I continue posting every day from now on? Highly unlikely.. but I think I've gotten into the habit of posting at night before bed, and will probably continue to do so regularly!

So.. today's the last day for comments to enter my yarn give away. Tomorrow I'll pick a couple of winners and post who they are! I've had so much fun reading all your comments, so I hope you all will stick around even after the giveaway is over. Besides, you never know when I might decide to give away some more!

Congrats to you on the spindle and completing your goal, and good luck to all in the drawing. Those lights are spectacular.

I think I made it too commenting every single day as well. It's not easy either :p

And for Christmas lights, we have the neighbours of the blinky overboard. Of course it's not as bad as the video on youtube where it's all music coordinated :p
