Sewing, Anyone?

This is dress number 2 that will be posted on EBAY. I finished it yesterday….I think it turned out pretty well. It’s a little big on Emma. We’ve not done a project in a while so I thought that Monday, we would begin a sew-along. For those with no sewing experience, this should be a great beginner’s project: a rice…

1st EBAY Posting

I‘ve taken the plunge. My first “for sale” item is now listed on EBAY…item number 180009060191 is the first dress that I’ve made to sell. I have had experience selling some smaller items so I’m interested to see how this one turns out. The dress took me a little longer than I was expecting but I think it turned out…

What Is Important?

Today my Mom asked me to post….so I am filling in for her. Upon watching my younger siblings, Jessica and Matthew, playing spaceship in our living room last night with some Play Hut tents,I was transported to a time about 6 years ago when another set of children were doing the exact same thing. Joshua and I would stack the…

Courtney worked on a stop motion photography movie for her…we’re trying to figure out how to upload this as streaming video. I made her some pillowcases with…

Littlest Gardener

Little Emma loves to be outside. Her big blue eyes seem to wander endlessly taking in every detail of her surroundings. She doesn’t take anything for granted. Now, if only we could keep her from trying to put the mulch in her mouth… 🙂 Yesterday, I finished half of my Mom’s birthday gift. This project is taking me a little…

Jacob’s Pride

I know that we have posted pictures of our sunflowers before. This is the latest, taken this morning. I can’t tell you what it does for a child to see a tiny seed that he has planted and tended with his own hands turn into something so beautiful and huge!
