Left to right, top to bottom, row 1-3<br />
<br />
Row 1<br />
Snow and more snow and doggy play time<br />
<br />
Row 2<br />
Day trip to Burlington Vermont and some artistic work, love notes from family<br />
<br />
Row 3<br />
More love notes in ombre buttons (so much talent), one day of some blue sky, and a BooBoo foot for my husband (already better) and snow, of course...<br />
<br />
Not to exciting but sometimes that's a good thing.<br />
<br />
Ready for April and NO SNOW! please.....<br />
<br />
<br />
Thanks for popping in my friends, new and old. Hope your March was enjoyable and April is even better 💖<br />

<br />
We had such a great time and really enjoyed every moment with these two, ages 10 and 8.<br />

As you can see on Sunday we visited an alpaca shop and the alpacas were a must to visit!<br />
We also sampled Cabot cheese and chocolates all from Vermont.<br />
<br />
On Monday we had a trip to Michael's to get all sorts of crafts for the week ahead, I didn't say no to anything, our cart was full. Wait to you see all our creations!!<br />

I really haven't had a computer since April 2016, I was just using my iPad for emails, Instagram etc. That may be another reason my Blog was not active. Very difficult to post photos on an iPad if not impossible, at least I never could figure it out. Now I have this gorgeous new MacBook Pro and I feel like I have a new toy. Yes, I suspect I am a nerd to be saying that. haha<br />
<br />
Importing photos has still been slow, I may have to contact my geek squad at Best Buy! Maybe I need to not have over 10,000 photos, but where do I put them....anyone???? Help!<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
We had a nor'easter yesterday and we are buried in beautiful white snow, cold temperatures and more snow for the weekend. As you can see I am looking on the brighter side of things and seeing beauty in this winter.<br />
<br />
Of course some tulips help! These are artificial from our new Michael's Craft store, I prefer fresh, of course, but not always possible, so these are making me smile for now!<br />

<br />
We have about a foot of snow and more to come. Jack loves to photo bomb most of my photos. as you can see.<br />
<br />
The bottom right photo is Jack's hair growing back. The top square is where he had the spinal and will take a long time to grow in. There must be 10 layers of thick fur!<br />

The blanket is called Peek-a-boo from the talented <a href="http://www.cherryheart.co.uk/">Cherryheart</a> It is crocheted and is so much fun to make. The knitted hat pattern is from my own but the design pattern is from the talented <a href="http://kiwiyarns.wordpress.com/">Kiwi</a> from one of her sock patterns.<br />

Jack did well in surgery . He looks like he has been through an ordeal, and he has. 24 staples, plate and screws and IV sights. Poor baby Jack, but he is 90 lbs strong and has a great doctor-nurse team to help him heal and surround him with love. (aka my husband and myself)<br />
<br />
Stil can't post photos here on my iPad, if anyone knows what I am doing wrong, please let me know! Quick update on Jack, thank you all for your love and well wishes for Jack😘❤🐶❤<br />

Holy Mackerel where have I been you may ask. Well, my husband's retirement lead to getting Vermont home ready for the market, which involved 3 months of thinning out materialistic things and simplifing our "stuff" which was really hard. It was on the market for 6 months and we are still here, but loving our home as always. The size is wonderful for all our family, but we still want to down size, so come Spring it will be on the market again.<br />
<br />
We had a wonderful stay in Martha's Vineyard for 5 months and enjoyed the beach, ocean, walks, gardening ad golfing. I'm enjoying my new outdoor sport but still not improving, maybe in another 3 years!<br />
<br />
October we were back in our Vermont home and enjoying the gorgeous foliage and cool weather. Lots of catching up with friends, family and home. We hosted Thanksgiving, went to a beautiful family wedding and experienced another snow fall.<br />
<br />
December is always exciting and my favorite time of year. Lots of decorating and festive times, fires in the fireplace, cozy nights and dinners. Christmas was celebrated for the first time at one of our daughter's homes. It was so fun and wonderful to be all together. My birthday was also celebrated due to being so close to Christmas. Just wonderful, "family is the best"!<br />
<br />
Now here we are in the New Year 2017 and I have missed my blog so much, I couldn't let another year go by. I have missed all my blog friends, I hope you are still with me!<br />
<br />
My Etsy shop is full now with crochet hooks, baby Button hats and fancy Pincushions. Please check me out at <a href="http://www.etsy.com/shop/Robinmurray">Etsy Shop</a>. If you visit my shop, I thank you in advance❤<br />
<br />
So here it is January 10th and JACK our beloved yellow lab is having ACL surgery tomorrow. He has been having issues for awhile with his right hind leg and it is time to do something. I'm a wreck but pray he will be fine. We have to travel to Burlington, Vermont (1.5 hours away) talk to doctor and then pick him up the next day. We are going to stay overnight in Burlington, a lovely city, and pick him up first thing in the morning. ( way to much information) hahahaha<br />
I will keep you posted😊<br />
<br />
<br />
Many thanks for popping over to my blog, I have a lot of catching up to go, so bear with me! Sending love, hugs and smiles to all of you!<br />
<br />
xoRobin<br />
<br />
Sorry but my computer will not allow me to get my photos, so I'm publishing this now and will try to figure it out🙁</div>

Sorry to be tooting my own horn, BUT I actually finished my first pair of socks that only took 3 years!!!! Of course not 3 years of knitting, but 3 years are sitting in a knitting bag waiting patiently for me to JUST DO IT<br />
<br />
And they actually fit and are cosy and warm and perfect for this wintery weather and my first sniffles of the year. So sitting and knitting this weekend and having fires and lots of tea was what made me so happy, I just had to toot my horn......I guess it is like a "ta da" moment.<br />
<br />

Happy New Year Dear Friends! Lots to talk about in the new year, just wanted to pop in to wish blessings and love to all of you who take the time to visit me here!<br />
<br />
2015 was quite the year for my family, two daughter's weddings, one niece's wedding, renovation on our vacation home, a few minor health issues, and now my Hb's retirement!<br />
<br />
Let's bring on 2016 with love, kindness, laughter, good health and new adventures!<br />
<br />
I hope to be more active on my blog in 2016.....I will be in a new chapter in my book, actually I think a NEW book is more like it with my Hb home and new adjustments!<br />
<br />
I'm excited to see what's ahead for us......I will always have yarn and crafts in my future....I have threatened my Hb on knitting and crocheting lessons hahahaha<br />
<br />
No, but really I am looking forward to sharing my new adventures and experiences both good and challenging in my new "life's" book!<br />
<br />
I leave you with much gratitude for your friendship, kindness, and motivating you all give to me to continue being creative and trying new crafts.<br />
<br />
Jack and I send hugs to all of you and blessings for 2016<br />
<br />
xoxoRobin and Jack<br />

Hello my lovely bloggers,<br />
<br />
I've been on a mission of making and finishing all yarn projects and having so much fun! I have actually been making time each day just for me and it feels so good!<br />
<br />
Thanksgiving is almost here in the U.S., so I have been baking and prepping for the big day on Thursday! Lots of turkey, stuffing, mashed potatoes, peas and all the naughty pies and cakes will be consumed! Can't wait. We will have TEN this year which is almost everyone minus three who can't be with us this year. I will share photos after our Thanksgiving.<br />
<br />
I purchased a wonderful pattern from <a href="http://www.cherryheart.co.uk/">Cherryheart</a> called "Peek-a-boo" Blanket.<br />
It was so much fun to crochet and I made it to match a baby hat I had knit, here's a "peek"<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
As you can see, I used Sirdar yarn, nice to work with, love the color!!<br />

Visit to see little girls is always a fun week! No school on Tuesday, meant Monday drive to sleep over kids house and play all day Tuesday!<br />
<br />
Monday night mom and dad could go on a date and Nannie could be with girls. We had chinese food and cosy TV time.<br />
Up early the next day to a gorgeous sunny warm day, so we planned a picnic, hike and ice cream! Sounds great, right?!<br />
Kids love to explore and eat, so it was a successful hike. We saw acorns, fairy homes, beaver tree damage, baby princess pine trees, and we had so many interesting nature chats.<br />
<br />
Love to show you some photos of my little/BIG girls❤️<br />

First of thank you all for your well wishes for my back. It is so much better and I can even garden for a bit each day, but it's my hip that I suffer most from. It all started with Zumba, I was ignoring it and hoping things would just get better....well it didn't so I'm doing PT and exercises to strength the area.<br />
X-rays showed two osteophytes but they didn't seem to alarmed by them. SO I'm being a good girl and doing my exercises everyday and walking too!! Thank you again my friends for your concerns, they mean so much when you are in pain.<br />
<br />
<br />
So I have done a lot of reading this summer and really all year, 21 books to date. I think reading was a great escape from all the planning this year and really just relaxing!<br />
<br />
Here's a list from June on and a 5 star rating, 5 being the best! I was lucky because most of the books I chose were great.<br />
<br />
1. Maya's Notebook by Isabel Allende *****<br />
2. One Plus One by JoJo Moyes *****<br />
3. At the Water's Edge by Sara Gruen *****<br />
4. The Nightingale by Kristin Hannah *****<br />
5.The Language of Flowers by Vanessa Diffenbaugh *****<br />
6. The Vacationers by Emma Straub ****<br />
7. The Secret Life of Violet Grant by Beatriz Williams *****<br />
8. A Hundred Summers by Beatriz Williams *****<br />
9.The Ship of Brides by JoJo Moyes *****<br />
10. The Storied Life of A.J. Fiery by Gabrielle Zevin ****<br />
11. Overseas by Beatriz Williams *****<br />
12. Reading "My Brilliant Friend" by Elena Ferrante now, it is a 4 book series and good so far, this is the first book.<br />
<br />
It looks like I gave all but two of the books 5 *'s. Great books! I record the books I read because I forget the plots, so I write a very short summary and it helps refresh my memory. I know I may be a bit nerdy! hahaha<br />

I'm back to knitting a bit lately. I'm going to a baby shower in November and it's a boy so BLUE it is!<br />
I have never worked this pattern, knit all in one piece and then just sew up side/sleeves. I will let you know how it goes and if I recommend it.<br />

Hello dear friends and followers, it's been awhile, but I am alive and well. Although I did hurt my back this past weekend with fall cleanup. I think that is why I am finally getting to blog and sit with an ice pack on my lower back. Yesterday it was heat that felt good but today it is cold that is helping. I have all this energy but my body is not cooperating, so frustrating and sad......but I will heal and mend and be raring to go soon, I HOPE.<br />
<br />
So this summer the two weddings were amazing, both daughters married, happy and blessed. Can you believe we are still waiting for some of the professional photos. I'm sure there will be some beautiful wedding photos for Christmas presents : ) <br />
<br />
Our renovation in Martha's Vineyard is complete. It truly turned out so beautifully and the new space and kitchen is wonderful. We didn't get any real time to enjoy it yet but we will next year. We'll be closing it up for the winter and reopening early spring!!! (the weddings took all our vacation time...so worth it needless to say)<br />
<br />
Autumn is here and the colors are finally coming, really slow this year due to the dryness we have had. But the past rain and sun this past week did it's magic! The weather is chilly in the morning, warm in day and then back to chilly in the evening....three change of outfits!<br />
<br />
Now that all the activities and planning for the two weddings are over and the renovation is done, I'm a little in limbo and finding myself again. I truly loved the whole wedding planning and actually miss all the family hustle and bustle. The holidays will be here before long, so I will be fine.<br />
<br />
Let show some photos<br />

I know it has been so long since my last post.......it has been a wild ride of weddings, summer days and plans for next August 22nd daughter's wedding. (not to mention reno on MV house)<br />
<br />
<br />
Amy and Andrew's wedding was absolutely beautiful and lovely in every way. We all had the best time and the weather was picture perfect. The best way to tell you about it is with a few pictures. <br />
<br />
ENJOY!<br />

After making 150 jars, I really never wanted to see another succulent~but they were a hit~and still alive!!<br />

<br />
Well, my friends this has taken a while to write, I must get going but I have missed blogging and have so much more to share. Next Time, more on summer, Leslie's upcoming wedding and so much more.<br />
<br />
<br />
Few questions:<br />
<br />
Does everyone have to enter one photo at a time when writing a post or am I doing something wrong?!<br />
<br />
Can someone follow me who isn't yet, I have been stuck on 140 forever, I don't even know if it works!<br />
Thank you for any responses xoxo<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Thank you all for visiting and I hope you all have "DAISY DAYS"<br />
<br />
xoRobin<br />

Yes, it's been busy and many balls up in the air but I wish I could have posted more. I don't want my blog to die. Hang in there with me my blogging friends. So this is what has been happening in the past month.<br />
<br />
1. Had "A" and "E" for 5 glorious days. Lots of play and imagination happened.<br />

<br />
We were so blessed with a magnificent weekend for Abby's "9" year old birthday party and Amy's lovely Bridal shower!<br />
Abby's party was with 12 girls (counting Abby and Lizzy) at a "paint your own pottery studio". They do such a wonderful job organizing and preparing for the parties. There is a wall of pottery the girls can pick a fun piece of art work, plaque, initial, animal or hobby. The instructor explains the process of base coat painting, then a tray of 32 paint colors come out and the party begins. Nine year olds are so talented and their imagination is endless. After designing their piece of pottery they get to decide on the spray finish, gloss, pearl or glitter. (or a combo) After cake and ice cream the kids gather their masterpieces, that are mostly dry, and head home with gift bags and smiles. At nine the girls hug each other good bye, it really is so sweet. I told my daughter to enjoy this because it will not be long before there may be some boys involved......oh dear! Please stay little girls❤️<br />
<br />
But we all know that doesn't happen, so now we get to enjoy the lives of our children as they get older and wiser and "in love". Which brings us to Sunday with Amy's Bridal shower. It was a perfect sunny day, really the first mild and delightful day we have had this spring. (note: this was in Massachusetts, not Vermont) We had 52 ladies arriving at noon to the destination "Tuscan Kitchen" restaurant. Amy arrived at 12:15 with Andy in hand and the party started. Andy said his good byes. We had a lovely mingling time, then sit down lunch, trivia game featuring "the couple", prizes and then the opening process of the many many gifts. Amy's bridesmaids have this down pat and half open cards etc so make the time is not so lengthy. Amy and Andy received so many lovely and useful gifts from their registry. I think many people think they enjoy a little wine....hahaha. Just kidding they did not receive any doubles and Amy was so gracious and appreciative.<br />
<br />
Amy's future mother in law made up the most fabulous favors for everyone to take home. Beautiful bottles of Rosemary Olive oil that corresponded with the theme for their honeymoon. They will be spending two weeks in Italy!<br />
<br />
Let me share some photos of both events!<br />

Good morning dear friends and hello to any new visitors, I welcome you and hope you follow me.<br />
<br />
Spring is still not here in Vermont, not even a tease!<br />
<br />
In my world there are so many balls up in the air, I am managing by taking things day by day and at times hour by hour.......that's not to say things are bad, in fact, everything is so happy and exciting just a lot at the same time. If you are in my age bracket you know by now that, that is the way it normally works, "feast or famine"!<br />
We have renovation happening at our vacation home in Martha's Vineyard which is so exciting. We had our first peek this past weekend and I was bubbling with excitement verging on goofiness! I was a real HGTV person in awe of the job that had been done. I normally can't picture the way something will turn out until I see it, I'm a very visual person. I can show you a peek to get the idea.<br />

This is the back of the house with an added sunroom and expanded kitchen area in green. So our 800 square foot house will expand to 1400 sq. ft. Also being added is a bathroom upstairs.<br />

Inside peek, there is a lot of open space and cathedral ceilings. Hard to explain in this state. Have to wait until summer for the unveiling.<br />
<br />
<br />
This was all so thrilling to see, but now I have to purchase so many light fixtures and get them down in time so I don't hold them up!! It's a 4 hour drive and a 45 minute ferry ride, the drive is a bit much but I do love the ferry.<br />
We are doing all this because we hope to spend half the year there when we are completely retired. Island life is so great and Jack loves it!<br />
<br />
<br />
Wedding countdown 80 days away!!! Fittings to take place, invitations out, bridal shower in 2 weeks, gift bags etc.....all good stuff but a lot. I manage with my lists and lists and checking them off : )<br />
<br />
Look what happened when we were at the vineyard<br />

How cute is this?<br />
<br />
<br />
The bridal shower is on April 20th and I'm almost ready for it with the help of all the girls in the bridal party and of course the two flower girls! (did I say there are 9 bridesmaids) Yup that's right!<br />
The shower is at a restaurant and will be very nice and festive.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Now about Jack, I took him up to the surgeon vet. in Burlington, Vermont an hour and half away. It was an early appointment so we were up early. Good news he does not need surgery!! Thank you so much for your thoughts and concerns for my boy! He had a slight ACL tear, but not necessary for surgery because he was getting better on his own. Thank you Jack, I feel 4 thousand dollars richer. Yes that what it would have cost, but Jack is worth it : )<br />
Burlington, Vermont is on Lake Champlain and is so beautiful, still frozen. Here's a photo and yes it was cold.<br />

I say Welcome Spring with a wish and a promise because we do not have it "Yet"!!! Actually it is snowing on this first day of Spring. I will not loss hope because it will be here soon. See how optimistic I am : ) <br />
<br />
I have been extremely busy lately with wedding plans as the wedding nears, only 3 months away. I have been shopping for MOB dress and found the perfect dress that I feel good in. It is long and navy blue and I am excited to wear it at Amy's wedding. Bridal shower is next, April 12th, I got invitation out over a month ago and am now making buntings and gift bags. So many fun details, as many of you know. Sorry I can't show any pictures or ideas......shhhhh........it's all hush hush!<br />
<br />
One daughter did have a big "30" birthday and I finished a quilt for her special day. Let me show you. It is tied not quilted and queen size.<br />

Oh to be 30 again, it would be great but I'm happy where I am and have so much to be thankful for!<br />
<br />
Next on this past weeks events, poor Jack was limping and my Hb and I had to take him to an animal emergency here in our area. They think he may have torn his ACL (knee ligament). Oh dear, I have to take him to a specialist 1.5 hours away this coming Tuesday and may have surgery. Poor Jack, but he does have me bewildered because he is acting normal now and not limping!!!! <br />

OK, I've decided Island life is the life for me! Did my hints make you think of MAUI! ALOHA was my secret 3rd hint! Well, let me tell you it is one magnificent island! I'm an Island Girl for sure : )<br />
But the flight from Vermont is 13 hours and that is a long time.......turns out it is worth it, if you are lucky enough to have a long stay. We had 12 days so it was wonderful and enough time to forget the flight until the departure day. I took about one thousand pictures with my iPhone and my new Sony! I did love me new camera but there is definitely a convenience to the size of the iPhone.<br />
My Hb had a conference in Maui, so we turned it into a vacation too. It was our Anniversary and both of our birthdays close together, so lots of celebrating.<br />
<br />
We snorkeled, did a whale watch, went to a Luau, saw a sunrise from a volcano crater (Haleakala volcano) and biked down the volcano, played golf, walked, swam, read, and ate so many tasty meals. But let me tell you it is one expensive experience, meals are so pricey but so elegant, fresh and delicious. Oh, did I mention the cocktails, so many special island drinks!<br />
<br />
We stayed at the Ritz Carlton, "we had too", the conference was there, to bad right! The flowers, landscape and terrain are so green and lush. I was in photo heaven. So let me start with the slide show!<br />
<br />
<br />

On top of the volcano for the sunrise, we got up at 2am, took a van to the bike location(to trail the bikes), drove to the crater (2 hours away) and got to see this magnificent sunrise! It was awesome. There was a couple who got engage just as the sun peeked through!! It was so sweet, everyone clapped and cheered!<br />

This is the map and the trail for our bike ride down. See the twisty roads, we were the oldest couple and we DID IT! I have to say I was so proud of us, It wasn't that hard, but we were definitely out of our comfort zone. Our hands got the most workout braking!!! It was the highlight of our trip. There were ten in our group, we stopped halfway and had a nice breakfast at a Lavender Farm, it smelled so wonderful. Then we proceeded down the volcano. We started the trip in fleece and windbreakers (jackets and pants) and started shedding clothes as we descended and ended up at the ocean in shorts and tops. We were back to our hotel at 1:00pm!<br />

I'm so happy to have had this wonderful experience<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
There are so many more pictures of flowers and food and trees and loveliness. I will probably have to write another Maui post, but for now this is a start.<br />

I came home to a whole post office crate of mail and a lovely card and gift from <a href="http://teresakasner.blogspot.com/">Teresa</a>! She makes the most beautiful crocheted hearts and I'm so grateful to have one hanging in my home. Thank you so much Teresa, one of my longest blogging friends❤️<br />

Hi Dear friends,<br />
<br />
Wanted to wish you all a Happy Valentine's Weekend. Hope that you are all surrounded by love and family or at least the people you want to be surrounded with! It is extremely windy and wintery here with a fresh snowfall of 12 inches. Hard to believe we could be getting so much. But I guess it is New England, USA.<br />
<br />
Here are a few random photos<br />

Where does the time go.....I just don't know! I've been trying to post all week and am finally sitting myself down to squeeze one more post for January. <br />
<br />
I have been sewing a bit lately and I have a huge surprise to show you. Something from my past and very dear to me, something I used all the time as a teenager, something I learned on, and something that has been put away for TOO long......I cleaned it up, dusted it off and gave a spin..........<br />
<br />
Can you guess, probably not......so here it is in its glory!<br />

Nothing like this insignia, "SINGER"<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
So after I oiled it, played with the tension, and got rid of the dust and lint......what does one make to give the "old faithful" a spin?<br />
<br />
<br />
How 'bout some pin cushions ❤️<br />

I even have things on the backs!<br />

I will be putting them eventually in my Etsy shop, what do you think? $5-7 plus postage....I'm so bad at pricing.<br />

It is bitter cold here and having snow fall everyday. But I guess that's what happens in winter. I have been hibernating a bit and not bored yet. Actually quite busy but missing my daily long walks, it's just so cold. Jack did beg me to walk him this morning, so I bundled up and now I have a headache from the wind chill. It's 1 degree F here and negative with the wind.....oh dear<br />
<br />
