And I still knit too.

Here, proof of progress (In no particular order)!

Muriel's Crystals (Sorry, cant find the link online) pose as a generic drop stitch scarf with my Peonies.  The crystals were also spotted making a cameo appearance at my cousin's wedding this weekend...

Socks from Knitting Vintage Socks lounging in my coreopsis.

I also made a pair of socks for my mom (she gave me those fantastic sock needle holders that you see in the above picture and second picture in exchange) out of Old Rose.  I found the ball hiding in my Dead Nettle...

Also almost finished with a sweater for DH.  Promised it to him about a year ago and aparantly have been taking my time with it.  I'll finish it one of these days!

Hope you all are enjoying your spring and looking forward to summer.  I personaly am thrilled to have a home, a beautiful garden (though it is hard work to have all those pretty flowers!), good knitting, good books, and a happy hubby.  I tell you, it is also pretty cool having a home relatively close to the shore!

One final thought before I go (and hopefully I won't wait 4 months to post again)...
Matt and I are planning our summer vacation. We've got a nice amount of time set aside in August.  Our choices so far are Yellowstone, Acadia, The Outer Banks, England & Ireland (if plane tickets go down), Canada (Toronto, Montreal & Quebec), California (coastal drive from mid Cali north), or a cruise.  I guess we have options! Any suggestions?  We tend to go back and forth between flying and driving - we're leaning towards driving, but I guess that depends if the gas prices spike this summer.

Happy Knitting!
