Better late than never!

So, yeah, I haven't blogged in a while. Insert all of my previous excuses here, I don't want to repeat myself, and I think they all apply. It's been crazy. But anyway...

Remember a while back when I blogged about how Project Linus sent out a request for blankets in Colts colors?
Well Janet and I got together after a very (VERY) busy garage sale at my house and turned these...

...into THESE.

Our knitting group rocks! I was hoping we might have enough blocks for 2 blankets, but we ended up with enough for 3. Considering what a very short time we had to throw these together, I think we dod pretty good. They were nice and snuggly, too. There is a row of blocks that you can't see over the top of the banister.

A couple days after we turned them in we found out why they were doing it.

It turns out Peyton Manning donated upwards of $50 million to the St. Vincent's Children's Hospital. They re-named it after him and had a big event. You can see a kid with Peyton who has a Linus blanket HERE (It's not one of ours, though).

Go Colts!
