Sewing Stuff

Here's my latest projects. I made all of them without a pattern, which always makes me feel proud of myself.

I got the idea from a shabby apple dress.

For E on her birthday.

Start Spreading the News...

Hahaha. No, I am not pregnant. Just singing that Frank Sinatra Song "New York". M and I just got back from NYC. Here are the pictures:

A T-Rex skeleton at the Natural History Museum. There were soooo many dinosaur bones. B would have been in heaven!

Teddy Roosevelt statue outside the museum entrance. We told B he was the same guy from "Night at the Museum". He thought that was pretty cool.

Me sitting on a park bench in the middle of Amsterdam Ave. eating an H and H bagel. Mmmm. My mouth is watering just thinking of it!

We went to Coney Island for our first time. We've been to NY a few times but had never made it down there. It was pretty fun! We ate at the Original Nathan's Hotdogs. It was the best hotdog I have ever had!

Me at the beach on Coney Island. Maybe we could take the kids with us some day. But for now it's fun to go with just M and me.

The 4th of July

I love the 4th of July! I have always loved going to all of the festivities put on by Kaysville. I always look forward to the day and I always get teary when the veterans come by during the parade.

The kids in their patriotic clothes

Up at Grandma H's. We go up to Grandma's for a potluck after the parade.

Waiting for the fireworks there was a BEAUTIFUL sunset.

Me and the kids snuggled up during the fireworks.

In the MEEB's Yard

Tonight we had our cousins from Idaho here to play. It was a nice evening to be outside!

Playing Baseball

We picked some strawberries and raspberries from our back yard. The kids were happy to eat them right off the vine. I love when they want to eat healthy!

I think those raspberries were a little sour!

Oh What fun in a Box!

I am always amazed at how entertained kids are by boxes. I mean seriously! A box?!? What would it be like to have imaginations like kids?

E getting ready to shake B inside the box.

The puppies in their house!
