approximately 4 months later...

i finished my mittens!
nothing like a good snow fall, chilly temperatures and icy hands to increase motivation
here is a grainy picture of them (the colours are a bit funny, they're actually a camel colour and a cherry pink):



hooray for warmer hands.
i love being warm.

p.s. the video we made was done with kyle's regular old slr camera (well, not really that old and regualr. but a digital slr, not a video camera). we just did it claymation-style where we'd take a picture, move a smidge, take another one... so the hoverers and the broom flying was just people jumping, taking a small step forward and jumping again, kyle had to do his best to take the picture at the right point in the jump. it was pretty fun.

this is a funny picture to me... it makes your face look impossibly long and noseless.... happy your hands are warm... hope I get to see you soon! bring your knitting for a visit.

beautiful mittens!

we are invited to a housewarming party and the host wants everyone to put together a video project. so we are trying to come up with an idea and i love this one that you guys did. but i think it may be too complicated since we don't have a Kyle... maybe you could send us you Kyle for a weekend?

still no package huh? I should have paid for tracking and insurance. oh rats!

don't worry about the pkg... things take at least a month to get from your country to ours!
