More Knitting and a Drive

First, here's my March cloth for the Monthly Dishcloth challenge. The suggested color was something tan or cream, but since I'm stash busting, I did it in purple. The pattern is "The Empty Tomb" and it caused a ruckus on the group. The moderator told the group that it was "Christian" and a lot of people were offended. I have a feeling that if she hadn't told anyone what it was, not many people would have guessed. DH thought it was a sunrise. It reminds me of a partial eclipse. DD doesn't care what it is, it's purple and she wants it.

We went on a spur of the moment road trip today. Last week we finally decided to stay in our house instead of trying to move up and become more material. In the spirit of staying put, we need to put a fresh coat of paint on the house. So, dh wanted to find a paint sprayer and the closest one was at a Sam's 50 miles away. I put the three youngest in the car and we set off. They were excited because we got to eat at DQ and get ice cream. DS 2 was happy because he got to spend the day alone (and btw he made us a roast for dinner!). DH is happy because now he can have some hope of actually getting the house painted. All around, a great day!
