And so it begins...

Lots of work ahead. 8 years worth of life to pack up. The not so fun part of moving. Ha!

From this...

...to this.

An old shirt/jacket that had shrunk in the wash. Up cycled into a scarf. I added more ruffles with another shirt to make it fuller.

Easy peasy!

Sew Easy

I got this idea off pinterest last week and had to try it. It is so rediculously easy that I plan to use this tutorial to teach Gracelyn to sew. Straight lines, minimal thinking, perfect. I made 3 in about 20 minutes.

10:52 Be Still

"Be still and know that I am God." Psalm 42:10

Only God could produce something as magnificent as this. Holding a newborn makes you be still and reflect on His glory.

9:52 A Great Leap

Painted Toes!

Taking a leap of faith that spring will be showing itself in full force so that I can wear sandals soon.

8:52 Cabin Fever

Grace and I decided we had to get out of the house!!! A gift card to the movies helped make our decision of what to do. We got to experience an IMAX movie for the first time together. The movie was great and I got some time with my girl. Win-win...

7:52 True Love

Making Valentine boxes for the big kids. This guy thought he needed to join the action.

When I look at Mason I get a glimpse of what my true love looked like at 5!
