Happy Halloween

Happy Halloween!

I'm going to a birthday/Welcome to the country/Halloween party tonight and I'm not sure if i'm going to dress up. Well i might wear more make-up than usual. Either way it will be fun to go. The party is for my two friends one has a birthday today, and his fiance has just moved to the states to stay. She's from York and i'm so excited that she's here.

Today was the Phillies celebration parade. I went and got some photos. Simon had class and since he's a good student he didn't skip, although it's a two hour wait for septa so it might take him awhile to get home.

Pretty Trees

I just posted two new items in my shop. Tonight I think i'll set up my etsy mini.
Check out this pics I took near my street.

The sun in the trees was so beautiful.


And I loved the tunnel these trees make over the side walk.

Broad Street

Simon and I just got back from Broad Street. It's crazy, there are people everywhere.

I love that the clock tower at city hall is in these pictures.

Go Phillies!!!!!!!!!!!

The Phillies just won the World Series!!!!!!!!

Blue Betty is Open!!

I opened my Etsy shop tonight!!
Vist me at bluebettyshop.etsy.com, as of right now I only have four things up, but soon there will be more!

I really can't contain myself, I finally opened my Etsy shop for real real. I've been thinking about this for about five months and I've been activly planning for about two months.

The scarfs in the pic are in my shop, well the purple one and the green one are. I'll psot the yellow one in a day or two. But that's enough about me i'm listening to the world series game and hoping for a Phillies win. This waiting for the finish of the game has been so hard. The city is so energized, I'm so excited to be living in this city at this time.

More for later!

GO PHILLIES!!!

Cold and Windy

Today was super cold. It might not have been too bad if it wasn't rainning or windy out. I was kind of glad to be at work all day in a nice warm shop. Since I'm originally from upstate New York I feel wussy if I have to turn the heat on before November. I rmember waking up at 6:30 in the morning to get ready for school and the floors in the house being chilly.

The only exception is if it snows and stays below 40 degrees for a week. No wonder I love making scrafs and hats. Brrrrrrrrrrr....I'm glad I have my very own Simon Space Heater in my bed.

Almost two scarfs done I'll post pics tomorrow.

Purple Scarf

So maybe I did go Scarf Crazy. I started my third today and it's quite lovely. In my pile of yarn, that is mostly tucked away in a nice box/coffee table thing, I found this vibrent hand painted purple yarn. Bulky and wool so it will work up fast and be super warm. I'll post a pic when it's done. I'm a little less than half way through, but I expect to finish tonight durring the 5th game of the world series.

I like baseball, but I'm not a die hard. I have to admit that the world series being played in the city I live in is pretty awesome. I've watched every game, and am hoping for the final game to be tonight, knock on wood. The city of Philly will go crazy, and while I am slightly affarid of that I can't wait to see it happen.

Go Phillies!!!!
