Sewing On Paper

1/25/2010
In my Scrapbook Magazine I see lots of design pages that people sew on paper, and it turns out really cute. This was my first time to sew on paper, it turned out ok. Maybe, I just need to do it more and I will get better at it. If anyone has any good ideas for sewing on paper I would love to know them. I sewed a folder to put my Christmas cards in. I like to make folders to put my cards in that people give me or give my family.

Sewing Skirts

My sister Julie got these pants at a yard sale and gave them to me for Savannah. I thought they would be cute if I turned them into a skirt for her.

I’m happy with how the skirt turned out.

Julie also got these jeans for Kaitlyn at a yard sale and I made her a jean skirt with them. Every day she wants to wear a skirt.

I’m happy with how this skirt turned out too.

Aunt Sue

Brandon’s Aunt Sue was visiting this week and we got to see her a couple of times. The girls had tons of fun with her. This picture was taken at our house after we went to Café Rio.

With Cousins

1/19/2010
We went to my sister’s house this morning. She watched the girls’ while I went to the store, when I got back this is what I saw. All the kids calm and eating lunch. I just thought they all looked so cute. My kids love having and living close to their cousins.

On the way home she fell asleep.

Our Sammie

Today the girls were playing with Sammie. Kaitlyn kept putting her penguin on him and Savannah would take it off. Also, they kept petting him and kissing him. I think he liked it, all the attention. We had Sam before we had kids and he gets forgotten about a lot of time. I feel bad for him.

Painting Hello Kitty

Kaitlyn got this Hello Kitty for her birthday and she has been wanting to paint it ever since.

Kaitlyn had so much fun painting and she did a good job. I need to let her paint more often. She loves anything that has to do with art. I would love to get her art lesson one of these days.
