taking out the dog

Bundled up in his angry birds had I crocheted himThen he switched to his beard hat I made because his cheeks were cold

Poor Gideon had to be the one to take Tobie out to go potty.  It'[s not an easy process when there are piles of snow everywhere, so we opted for going out the garage in the front since the driveway was shoveled.  Over a snowbank

around the car

And pulled down in the snow.  Not an easy task

I showed the ladies how to make a paper chain.  SOME of us come by it more naturally than others, while some naturally make lopsided circle heads.  Right Mary?
