A year older...

What a month so far. Birthday, surprise vacation and hand made Valentines had bring so much joy. I am older but just as happy :-)

For my birthday, my husband surprised with a romantic Caribbean vacation. Not only we stayed in beautiful place but he also scored tickets to see my favorite Latin American singer -- she gave a concert in Dominican Republic for Valentines Day!

It was one of the best gifts ever! Great music, succulent food, new friends, fun knitting and warm weather.

Here are some pictures of the trip. The full album is here.





A dear friend gifted me a pattern for my birthday. Seemed logical to cast on my way to Dominican Republic. This shawl is a joy to knit. Project details: here.


Thanks for stopping by! Have a wonderful weekend.
