We celebrated our final Christmas with our family and BioGirl’s future inlaws Sunday. I think everyone had a good time.We had Street Tacos and a Baked Potato Bar. It sure was yummy!
The end of 2019 saw me knitting to finish hats. I had one hat going to NC and one I snuck in for Hubster. For the Great-Nephew in NC, who loves red, I knit a Cable loves pom poms. His little sister gets the Penguin Hat.
Last year was the year of the Foxy hats, and I made a few. Hubster has badgered me for a Foxy ever since. I refused, because it really is a child’s hat! I doubted he would actually wear it. Here’s the ones I made last year.
Last week he kept complaining about not having a Fox hat. Friday, I cast on. He’s been off work since the 20th, so I had to keep hiding the knitting from him when he came in my sewing room. He came in there 6 times on Friday!! LOL. Hard to believe he did not notice, I was covering it up with my other knitting. Sunday morning he opened his hat and promptly put it on his head. The goof!
CarGuy had a few of Diva’s snacks in his stocking because hers was too small, so she kept taking them as he pulled them out. Diva opening up the necklace we got her. BioGirl, who did all the shopping for her and ElectricGuy, opening her hiking rain gear, and EG opening his. All I had to do was put the stuff in gift bags! My kind of Christmas shopping.
This was BG’s gift to her sister and CG. A canvas print of one of the their engagement photos. Awww!
She really was happy with it, tho her expression doesn’t seem it. LOL
I gifted this to my sister. A last minute cross-stitch finish.
The cording was made with the purple floss used for the flower.
Hope your Sunday was full of love and laughter, I know ours was!
We are back in our hometown today, hair cut for me and New Year’s Eve party with our friends. The best kind of reasons to return home!

That sounds a lovely celebration. Hope you enjoy the New Year’s Eve party and all the best for 2020
Thanks, it was a lovely time. And what better way to celebrate NYE than with friends who are really family! > >
Sounds like you had a great Christmas! I love that fox hat, but I would be too shy to wear it in public.
LOL! Me too! But then, I look horrible in hats! > >
Fox hats are for everyone. 🦊
LOL! They are extra cute on littles, but even 52 year olds can wear them! > >
🙂 love that fox hat – is he going to wear it out and about? shows he has a fun spirit
Yes, he is. LOL! Thanks > >
nice to see such a happy family celebration. Love the cable hat in red. I’m trying knit headbands over the next few weeks.
Thanks! We had a lot of fun. I keep forgetting to knit my sister a headband!

Looks like a wonderful day!
It was! Now onto NYE celebrations!

Your husband looks great in his hat:) Everyone in your family should have one!

Do it!!
Hi Chris! YAY to going home. LOVE the hubster in his hat. He wears it well! And the canvas gift – how fabulous and sweet and perfect. What fun times you had and I foresee even more in the immediate future. {{Hugs}} Happy New Year to you, my friend. ~smile~ Roseanne
Yes, it was a great day! Thanks for the well wishes and right back at ya chickadee! > >
Looks like a really fun day! Do you have two weddings to plan in 2020? 🙂
An August wedding for sure, and then a July 2021 possible. I am making table toppers for the August one, not sure what the decor for the July one will be. > >
What fun was had by all! The fox hat is too much fun!
That hat is too much! LOL > >
I knit that cute fox hat for my 4 year old grandson and it is the cutest!
It IS the cutest, on 4 year olds. Not too sure about 52 year olds. Hahahahaha!!! > >
I would be so thrilled if my husband asked me to make him a foxy hat!
As it is, he’s put in an order for a sweater, but in size XXL I’m not feeling very motivated to start as it could take me forever!
And I would be thrilled if Hubster asked for a sweater, but he runs too hot for them! LOL
Awesome fox hat! It looks like he is really loving it 🙂 Looks like the rest of the holiday was lovely as well!
It was! We had lots of fun and NO drama!!
>
Yay for no drama! That is basically my entire goal in life!
🤣🤣🤣

Looks like a very merry Christmas for everyone. Love the fox hat on your guy. Too fun.
He’s a goof for sure.

Awesome projects! I love that your husband wanted a fox hat and that you were able to hide it from him. Sounds like you all had a great holiday. Happy New Year!
I must say, he has been wearing it! LOL
