January 28, 2014.

        I have had a busy couple of weeks but it's been a good busy. I am in need of sailing but the sails on our sailboat won't be ready for a month or two. The weather outside has been such perfect weather for sailing and it has been pretty windy also. The water would be a tad cold at this time of year, but sitting out on the front with my feet in the water, reading a good book sounds delightful. The collection of ukelele songs I know is finally starting to grow. I now know all the chords and can improvise if I need to. I think it would be really fun to take my uke out on the sailboat. My favorite song to play is Home by Edward Sharpe and The Magnetic Zeros. It's so fun and clever.

        Today is day two of lacrosse try outs and it's exciting to finally be able to shoot on a goalie. It's been since last season that I have done that, besides a couple tournaments here and there. It's nice to be a team again.

        Kaley and I have a new favorite little latte place over in Waterford called Vespr. It's a sweet little coffee shop with pastries and cookies. I like getting the lavender rose (or something like that, I don't remember) and it comes with a flower latte-design. It's the perfect little white coffee cup, and has lavender sugar along the rim. I feel like a princess when I drink it. I strongly recommend you try it. The Maple latte is delicious also.

        I finally finished my pumpkin scarf last night! I have decided that it's the perfect scarf for Karlie because of her natural beauty so I am going to give this one to her instead of the purple/red scarf that I posted earlier. But the end of this scarf marks the beginning of the new pattern I want to learn for the next scarf! I'm going to alter between a knit and a pearl stitch, every other row. I also found this pin on Pinterest of how to knit with your fingers instead of with needles and I am definitely going to try that! I haven't decided which one I will start yet.

        The trees outside are the perfect color. They're bright orange and I even saw a bright yellow. I love this time of year and I wish it would stay for a little longer than it usually does. Today I am very thankful for the warmth of my covers. My bed is so comfy. I hope you like this scarf!
