Flynn’s birthday party was last Friday night, and it was such a great time! It was a small party with some family and friends, and lots of yummy food of course. Flynn spent almost the entire evening (and the whole rest of the weekend) sword fighting balloons with his new Master Sword! And oh my…
Remember this shirt that I started making Flynn two months ago? It’s been sitting on my sewing table since January, all cut out and ready to go. I finally finished it this weekend! I think it looks SO cute on him, even though I seriously screwed up the neck line. At first I didn’t sew…
“No! I don’t want to go to bed! I’ll go to bed in a couple of weeks!” “Look Mom, it looks like a 6 and when you put it upside down, it looks like a 9!” “Hang on! I’m trying to get mine tongue in mine nose!!” I had just finished cleaning the kitchen and…
Ok, so I’m totally cheating! I’ve been sick all week, so I didn’t have a chance to finish my sew along for Project Run & Play. Which stinks because it’s BOYS week and poor Flynn definitely gets the short end of the handmade stick. I started sewing him a t-shirt (more on that below!) but…
Our cake pop making went well! My dining room table got absolutely covered in chocolate, sprinkles, and frosting. (But it’s ok because “Cookers are just so messy.”) That little girl was in Cake Pop heaven. I was impressed how well she did, I only helped a tiny bit. I melted the chocolate and helped dip…
Last weekend I had a mini craft night with my Juniper. She chose a doll from one of my new books, picked out the fabric to use, helped me trace and cut the pieces and sat on my lap while I sewed her up. She did good for the most part, but got a little…
Friday was an absolutely beautiful day. It was 61° and sunny. (Which was super nice because I was awesome and locked my keys (and phone) in the car while at the post office. I enjoyed the 1.5 mile walk back to work though.) So imagine our surprise when Saturday evening it started snowing! Talk about…
Last week I took some pictures of Juniper so I could remember her little 4 year old face. She’s really not into getting her picture taken these days, but she let me snap a few while we were playing outside. We made an itty bitty snowman and explored the yard a bit. The difference between…
I decided last night to make some of these cute cardboard letters as a Christmas gift for my niece. They are awesome because you just use old boxes and scraps of fabric. Both of which I have a TON of. They are a lot of work, but they really aren’t that bad. But by the…
