I don’t know if I need to schedule in a time to blog every week or set myself an alarm or something…I want to be more consistent, I guess I just haven’t made it enough of a priority. Excuses, excuses… I completed the pink and green triangle quilt that I shared a bit of in [...]

I’ve been keeping busy, busy, busy. I’ve been sewing… and sewing… and sewing… and finally finishing! We’ve been hanging around the house… and finding fun places to hang out. We picked a ridiculous amount of blueberries that were turned into delicious blueberry jam… and I used some in some homemade pop tarts. I also used [...]

I saved these two dresses for quite a while. They’ve been too short for Estella for over a year but I couldn’t bring myself to give them away just yet… I decided to make them into skirts to get a little more life out of them. I added a simple fold over yoga waist to [...]

Discovering how cool cars and trucks are…and being amazed at the spinning wheels. Watercolors on coffee filters that will turn into flowers. This project entertained her for a good hour, maybe more…and resulted in some [...]

It’s been one of those weeks around here…all I can do is hope for a better one this week. There were some difficult days but there were also some chill times around the house. Kyler turned 7 months this week…the older he gets the more the two kiddos look alike. Lots of trimming little pieces [...]

Things around here have been pretty uneventful. We did a lot of hanging around the house… Estella wore her Halloween costume for three days straight. And as I’m typing this, she’s pulling it out for another day of use. It figures that she chooses the thing I dislike the most to wear nonstop. I’ve been [...]
