Jason and Kristen arrived home from Kelowna last night, where they'd gone to celebrate an early Christmas with Kristen's family. Their flight was supposed to be in at 6:55 pm, and since it was kind of threatening to snow, I decided to head out while it was still daylight -- I had a pair of socks 2/3 complete, and could get a bite to eat, and knit and wait.

Jason texted me while I was on the highway en route -- the flight was running late because it was snowing like crazy from Winnipeg to Kelowna, pretty much.

So I ate dinner ... and knitted... and waited...

He texted me at least twice more, with updates.

Their plane finally touched down at 9:17, but I'd finished these by about 8:40...


Doesn't he look happy to be home? :)

They had a great trip, but they were actually glad to be back...

And I was glad to have all that unexpected knitting time -- the Christmas list is becoming more manageable all the time!

It's pouring rain and I'm going to Mischa's this morning to finish all the baking!

Love the contrasting heel flaps. That adds just the right amount of "surprise joy"
