Things we are up to!

Can I just say my Mother in Law is the Best! I got a package in the mail today and it was one of my very favorite things. SCRAP Matterial!! I love getting this. I love love love it. I used one of the pieces she gave me for the back of a baby blanket I just finished the top of. The colors went perfectly. I also made this....
Yes a pillow case to match the blanket that Madee's Nana made for her when she was a baby. Thanks so much for the fabric I love it and will use it all!
Here I am at 6 months along but you can't tell very well in the picture I will post another one soon of my belly.
When you just don't have the snow you want, don't fret. Make Marsh mellow snowmen instead. They look great and taste great. Madee sure had fun putting them together.

I had to put this picture in because computer nerds are definately in our family. Maybe we have nerds in the making right here.

Too many Projects

I don't know why but ever since I got back from our Christmas in Portland I have just been working on project after project. I showed you some of the ones I have already finished but I am still working on quite a few more. I got some supplies from my mom to make quiet books for the kids. I have been working on those for a while. I also started a baby blanket for baby number three since I have made a blanket for each of our children. I have been painting little outfits for a wooden bear my sister gave me for all the seasons of the year. I also wanted to catch up on my scrapbooking. I have not done it since Sam was born two years ago almost. I have the stuff to make a jean quilt as well. I don't know what do you think? Too many Projects??

New Years Projects

When I was home for Christmas, I noticed the my Mom was sadly very far behind on her stocking making. There have been quite a few new grandkids and I was amazed she had enough for all of them. Well I decided to take one of her project back to utah with me. Stocking Making! Yup I made 8 new stockings. Now all the grandkids will have one.
What do you think Mom? Do you like them? You did pick the fabric.
My second project I have been working on that I really wanted to try out is a Quillow. For any of you out there who don't know what a quillow is, its a blanket that can transform into a pillow. Very wonderful. My Grandma made one of these for all of the grandkids. I still have mine that she gave me and I really wanted to see if I could make one. Here it is I love it.
Here it is in its pillow form! :) Happy sewing everyone!

Things I love to watch!



I will explain that last picture. Lincoln got a marshmallow gun for Christmas. He shoots it into the corner of the room and watches the madness begin. Sam and Madee race to where he shoots them and eats them as fast as they can. Very entertaining!

Christmas in Portland!

I have to say first sorry no pictures. We had a camera but took very few pictures this year. We had a wonderful Christmas. We spent a week in Portland and spent time with both the Denny and May families. Lincoln and I got to sneak out on our own and watch the new Avatar movie on christmas Eve. Christmas Morning was Crazy with lots of little ones running around at the May house. 4 of the 6 siblings were there for Christmas, making the total grandkid count 7. We had fun though. The Denny family had fun things going on as well. Wii was a popular activity there and Lincoln's brother got married the sunday after Christmas. It was so fun to spend time with everyone and be apart of the wedding. Lincoln was one of the Grooms Men and I was teasing him because all the grooms men had to dance with the bridesmaids for a dance. The food was wonderful and the kids loved running around dancing and taking over the dance floor. Madee had so much fun with all her cousins. We just had a great time visiting with everyone. Thanks to all our Family for a great holiday and all the wonderful gift and fun we shared this last year.
