I can hardly wait to put them on my own little girl someday!! They are a brighter/darker pink than they look in the picture. Mama got them because they reminded her of some times when I was a little girl =D.
I have been doing spelling lessons with my brothers. It has been a joy and a challenge. But I am enjoying every moment of it! I some some work sheets and spelling games that I found online. Today I told Nathanael I'd give him a jelly bean for every word he spelled correctly. He did well and got 20 beans in all.
Here are some pictures of the yarn I am making. I plied most of it today. I did not put on the jumbo flyer and so I had do break the yarn and I'll finnish the rest of it on another spool and then try to splice them together-- Mama told me it's easy. . . errrr. . . I've never done it before. . . it's one of those things where you don't really have a choice (unless I want to have two separate skeins, which I don't).
Oh yes, and of coarse I have been skiing ALOT! We went out today and Enoch brought out a sled he made out of two small skis and some scraps of wood. It was fun to sled down but tricky to steer and I never did make it all the way down without crashing a couple times. Understandably since I was laughing so hard =D!
Sorry I did not get a mystery picture posted up today. I am not really doing regular daily posts anymore, sort of a bit of a blog break =D.
But, my friend Jenn is having a mystery picture over at her blog "Walking. . ."
Good Night,

Hey Hannah!
What a fun post!
So kind (and creative) of you to share your jellybeans ;) I hope you know how blessed you are to have so many brothers and sisters! I'm sure you do know - you always speak of them with such love and appreciation! Bless you!
Oh that yarn-making looks so fun!! I want to learn how to do that so bad! You've posted before about making and dying yarn, and I find that so interesting - I do alot of knitting and crocheting, (and other things as well - I love to make things! ;) ), but I'd have no idea where to even start in making my own yarn... I usually get mine from Wal*Mart :/ Is there any way you could let me know how to find out more about doing this? I love learning more about old-time traditions, homesteading, and that sort of thing!
I love all the skiing pictures you've been posting too! Looks like y'all are having a great time getting excersize and taking advantage of the SNOW! ;D
SOLI DEO GLORIA!

Hi Hannah!
It is so kind of you to help give your brother spelling lessons... and share your jelly beans! I do some school work with my siblings sometimes... mostly math. The yarn you are spinning looks really nice! You are so talented!
Love you my friend,
Rachel Grace
Hello Hannah~
I saw your little note at the bottom of your blog saying how you would like anyone who visits, to please leave a comment for you...so that's what I'm doing. :)
What a great idea - about giving jelly beans to your brother if he spells the words correctly. :) I shall have to try that with my sisters.
The yarn that you are making looks very nice! I, too, have a spinning wheel, but haven't had much time to sit down with it and work on making some yarn. I shall have to soon, though. I have a bunch of red-dyed wool that a friend of mine gave me and I know it would make some deliciously cozy yarn! :)
Wonderful job on your blog! Keep it up!
Blessings,
~Miss Raquel
