It's finally spring here in VA. We are getting ready to welcome a baby Flemish giant bunny to our critter crew. I picked a fawn so he would match the golden retriever. He will be here soon and I hope him and Jack will become friends. This little guy will be very, very big. but they are very gentle and make wonderful pets.
We are making plans to attend Maryland Sheep and Wool, there are five of us going and we cant wait. I hope to find a knitting machine at the auction there. This weekend is the New York City trip to shop and see the play Hairspray. I have mapped out all the yarn stores!
