Happy Birthday, Chet!

Dear Chet,

I want to wish you the best 5th birthday a boy could ever have! I wish I could come to your party, but since I can't (I can't fly, you know), I'm having a party here for you. I made a picture of us together on the moon because I am over the moon about you being my friend, and I think you are out of this world! (That means I think you're pretty neat.)

I hope you have a fun day full of surprises!

Love,
Penguin

P.S. Please have an extra bite of cake for me!

From Penguin's Mama:
Thank you, Chet, for being such a big fan of Penguin's! Happy birthday, and big hugs to your Mama!

Penguin's Christmas Eve

Dear Friends,

I am going to visit a special friend today—my good friend, Pinecone, for Christmas Eve. He lives in the forest. It snowed last night, so I hope he is wearing the scarf I knitted him so he can stay cozy. I will decorate him with Christmas lights today!

Oh dear! It looks like I decorated myself with lights instead!

 

 Hello, Pinecone! It's so good to see you again. My,... how you've grown!

 I brought some lights to decorate you with. I hope you like it.

 

 And I brought some presents too!

 This one is extra special.

Merry Christmas, Pinecone.

 I'm glad you like the wreath!

What's that? You'd like to open a present? Okay. Just one!

How about this one?

 It looks perfect on you, Pinecone!

 

I wish you a cozy, happy, and magical Christmas with your family and friends!

Love,
Penguin

A Day on the Slopes

Dear Friends,

Today looked like a nice day to go skiing. I got up early in the morning to make the walk up the mountain. I'm a slow walker, so it was a good thing that I started early.

Did you notice that I am wearing a RED scarf today? I knitted myself a Christmas scarf, for the holidays! And plus, I love the color red. It is the color of my sled and wagon. Do you have a favorite thing that is RED?

 Here I am walking up the snowy mountain.

 Here I am skiing down! WHEEEE!

 OOPS!  Even penguins take a tumble now and again.

 I ended the day with a nice cup of hot cocoa and a cookie.

It was a good day.

Love,
Penguin

P.S. What is your favorite winter activity?

I Love Yarn!

Dear Friends,

I love yarn. In fact, I love it so much that I had a party at a yarn store called UNWIND.  They love yarn too.

 There were yummy treats that looked like me and my orange ball of yarn. 

I got to meet the nice lady that made them! She is a cake pop artist.

 I loved being surrounded by yarn . . .
