I think my 8 year old Elli has been eating extra green beans at dinner or something because this girls’ legs are on the fast track to becoming the longest 8 year old legs you ever did see! I swear….this girl is growing out of everything in her drawer. But that’s okay, because of all […]
Our brains (and days) have been a little consumed lately. (More on that another day…) But I’ve been really missing my sewing machine. And glue gun, paint, and other supplies. The kiddos and I have been gathering supplies for their Valentine’s that they want to take to school for their friends……so that got me thinking […]

Can you believe it? A boy project. I’ve been trying to think of new things for my sweet boy…..it’s just harder to come up with projects for him. Skirts and frills that seem to be easy to create…..don’t look so great on boys. Darn. But how about some hip little pants? Complete with belt […]
