This is going to be one of those “little bit of this, little bit of that” posts.
Here are the monkeys heading off for their first day of kindergarten..
Aren’t they cute? ¬†Okay, so this picture is almost a month old at this point. ¬†They’ve been doing very well, getting homework every night except Friday and are generally enjoying it. ¬†Last week they had a class field trip to the Museum of Natural History in NYC. ¬†Mom went as a¬†chaperon/helper type.
They are still at the center where they spent the last two years in Pre-K. ¬†My town does not have full day KG so this offered the best option for us. ¬†The program is fully accredited and children usually come out of it way ahead of their public school future classmates. ¬†It also offered the advantage of being able to transition into the KG class for summer camp. ¬†They joined this group right after graduation in June so they were more than ready for a day without a nap. ¬†Sort of. ¬† Once school started, Kat was wiped out and on more than a few nights, she’s punked out way early. ¬†Its all good though.
I took the monkeys to the Garden State Sheep Breeders show a couple of weeks back. ¬†The car is amazing still covered in mud from the field. ¬†The recent rain hasn’t cleaned it. ¬†I’m going to have to suck it up and wash it 
 Anyway, we had a good time at the festival.  Its the perfect size for bringing the monkeys to before their heads explode.  I forgot to take pictures.  Again.  Yes.  But I did get this one:
Again, how cute are they? 
 There was some stash enhancement, but needless to say no pictures of it.
In other news, I need to update the herd status.  There have been some transactions with regards to the spinning wheels.

It was requested that I provide a closer up view of Fair Isle.  You asked for it:
Taken this morning in the car (duh) while waiting for the train
Finally, with 17 days left until Rhinebeck, here is how Rhinebeck started off this morning:
It is approx 6.5″ at this point. ¬†The plain knitting starts at the 13″ mark. ¬†I’m getting there. ¬†I’ve found it is perfect knitting for playing Sims to while watching the ballgame. ¬†Yes I am a multitasker
Craft on!
