Creativity explosion!

The girls wanted to make pillows tonight. They were really adorable and creative! I don't know what came over them that they wanted to sew, but they did and it HAD to be tonight. Of course, we made M pillows - what else? They turned out beautifully, and the girls were so excited about the project that they had made themselves. What a fun start to our week, being creative and having a blast together. I am SO blessed to have my 3 girls.

Show and Tell


I have always loved embroidered dishtowels. Especially the ones with the days of the weeks sewn on them. My sister Renee has a wonderful knack for embroidery that I haven't ever been able to adopt, so I haven't ever made myself any. But I FOUND some - and they have the days on them!!! They are really cute, and I am SO happy about my little treasure that I had to show and tell someone!!!

Tuesday to Sunday

On Tuesday and Wednesday we were eating lunch at the park, 65 degrees, no jackets, comfortably playing there at the park for a couple of hours. I think the kids even had their flip flops on as they played outside after school. Fast forward a few days... Today, Sunday - snow on the ground, snow falling from the sky, cold, cold, cold!!!! That is Colorado weather for you - crazy!!! It's kind of nice to get the best of both worlds in one week. Just reminds me not to let my spring fever get the best of me quite yet! Our toes might get a little chilled if we put the snow boots away and leave the flipflops out - especially today!
