Yarn along - Bob's Bird house

I'm linking up to Yarn along again this week, with a project that I'm doing with Papy Bob, my father-in-law.

Using his excellent carpentry skills, Bob made us this little bird house, that I am decorating with crochet squares.

I haven't been crocheting very long so I'm keeping it simple.  I chose the colours as they remind me of the Welsh flag; Rémi thinks they remind him of Italy and my friend thinks that they are christmassy.

I'm re-reading Tiger-Tiger with the boys again; Tiger-Tiger is having a bad day! but is it really a bad day or does he just think it is? 4 simple questions (that we can apply to almost any situation) help him see things as they really are!  Byron Katie has addapted this book from a far more complicated version of one of her books for adults, but I like the simplicity of Tiger-Tiger and also it has fantastic illustrations.  I'm also re-reading Country on Ice which attempts to explain Canada's obsession with Ice Hockey.  I first read this whilst I was living in Vancover and was following the Stanley Cup,  so now that my son is a hockey player (and Richi is really getting into it) I thought I'd try and motivate myself into liking it too!
