  • We took a spontaneous bus ride to the big downtown library yesterday and V was the life of the party, making faces at everyone and everything 😂😍😍😍 Love how she brings laughter along wherever she goes 💕☀️
  • I kinda went all out for my husbands’s bday this year bc he always seems to get the short straw, ...ya know, having a bday right after Christmas when everyone is tired and broke 😂 ...but this year, year 29, I was determined to make it GOOD, dammit. 😏🥳 So all weekend leading up to his bday, we peppered him with homemade birthday gifts (hello knitted DALEK!!) and the greatest lemon bakes in the land, and songs and smiles, and even some alone time to play video games! But then I honestly ended up getting real distracted and anxious from spending too much time on social media lately.. and on Tuesday night I found myself crying from the stress and crying because I was mad at myself for crying during Jacob’s big birthday extravaganza. So I talked to my bestie and my Mom and they were like, turn off your phone. NOW. So I did, and yesterday, on his actual bday, the greatest gift of ALL was that I turned my phone OFF all day! He had my full attention for the first time in ages, and I bought a picnic basket at the thrift store, and filled it up with mediocre chicken salad from the deli, and sparkling grape juice that was on clearance from New Years 😂 and picked him up early from work and we had a winter picnic date in our car by the Ohio river, listening to doowop music and laughing about all the greedy geese attacking our car 😂 ...and I’m totally rambling but it’s bc I put a timer on for social media today. 15 MINUTES. And I’m already running over, so I’m not gonna go back and edit, I’m just gonna hit OK, and move on with my life, and have better boundaries with social media from now on!!! I hope! LOL!! . Xo, Beth (PS: @jacob_t_meyer happy birthday!!!) . . PPS: pattern is #extermiknit on ravelry 👌🏼❤️
  • Just a mom pausing for a cute selfie while three feet away her hubby builds a snowman and her daughter eats it 😂❄️❤️❤️ Wishing you all a sweet Monday from snowy Ohio!
