Yarn Along {Giddy Up Eunice}

{affiliate links included}

Linking up with Ginny and Frontier Dreams.

This picture gets to go first today, because I am all kinds of excited about this book and the fact that it hit my mailbox Monday.

All kinds of excited! Oh, yes I am!

Sophie Hudson AKA BooMama is one of my favorite authors. Her books make me Laugh Out Loud, girls. And that is nothing to sneeze at or take lightly or put the cat out, about! Life NEEDS Laughter. And lots of it.

The description of Sophie on the back of her book says she likes to laugh everyday. Sign me up!! I like people who know how to get their laugh on. And though, I’ve never met Sophie Hudson, I’m very positive she knows HOW!!!

You can not read BooMama and then not use CAPITAL letters in your own blog post. You just CAN’T.

A few weeks ago, I signed up to be part of the launch team for Giddy Up, Eunice and when the email announcing I was part of the team bounced into my inbox, I beamed!

BECAUSE, that meant I got to read it early. I was already planning to read it. I was already planning to pre-order it. Shoot, I think I already had it in my Amazon cart.

Sophie’s books are THAT much fun!!

And really??? A book named Giddy Up, Eunice?!!!! Just the title alone!!!!

I had this mug out earlier in the week and was struck with the idea to snap a couple of pictures and stick them in this post.

This was my mug when I was young. It is chipped and cracked, but it still works!

I loved it so much!

I grew up in the CABBAGE PATCH KIDS era.

I remember getting my very first Cabbage Patch doll and I still have him.

He was named Sigmund Shane and I thought he was the best thing ever!

My cousin and I spent hours playing with our Cabbage Patch dolls. Hours.

We’d have our arms full of dolls and diaper bags and blankets as we’d jump in one of our moms’ cars to make the trek to her house or mine.

Kid Pick.

The Alley by Eleanor Estes.

I loved The Moffats series when I was young and they were part of my book collection. I found this book last summer when I visited a little bookstore.

It’s characters are quite as engaging as The Moffats are!

I worked on paper flowers some last week. Fun, fun! It’d been a bit since I’d turned some out.

Dishcloths done and done!

I was glad to finish the dark green. And I have no plans to do another dark one right now! Ha! 🙂 I have a lot of the turquoise yarn, so I’m keeping on keeping on with it. It is all springy and summery and light feeling!

One turquoise dishcloth packaged up for a friend. I forgot to give it to her, so it’s just waiting for the next chance to deliver it!

I use this Sugar ‘N Cream Yarn for dishcloths. All the variety of colors and variegation of yarn makes it fun.

A little more work on my tiny sock project. I didn’t pick it up much last week. I feel rather dense as I try to figure out each step for sure. But it is interesting!!

Are you reading anything new or have you found a book recently that makes you ten kinds of happy?!
