Royal, Jayden, and I drove down to Kelso Saturday morning to attend a couple birthday parties.  We decided we would spend the night down there so Royal could get some much needed fishing time in.  It also allowed me to spend some much needed time at the yarn store.  I happened to have an entire skein of yarn left over from the ruby river sweater I made, so I took it back to La Favorites to exchange it for something else.  And what other kind of yarn have I been obsessed with?  That’s right, I exchanged it for some more baby cashmirino.  I have a few more hats to make out of my new favorite baby hat book, and it just so happened that Jayden’s girlfriend, Mikalah, had a cold head.  So, lucky for her, she got to keep my first little party hat.  Sadly, Mikalah had to leave before I had the hat completely done, so I didn’t get to take a picture of her in it, but here is what the finished hat looks like!

And miracle of all miracles, Royal’s fishing trip was a success!!!  He actually caught a fish!  Yipee!!  A Spring Chinook that I am so eating tomorrow!

Jayden was pretty pumped about it too!  We’ll see how he feels when it’s sitting on his plate for dinner…
