What a cute pin cushion!!

I had fun making a new pin cushion for myself....I was in serious need of a new one, of course I wanted it to be cute! I even finished it while I was making dinner....talk about multi tasking!

New Pictures of the kids and some of me!

These are taken by my friend Kaedell Ellis, absolutely wonderful photographer!

















There are so many more that I love!!!

Our Halloween count down is on!!!

Saw this idea online, and had to recreate for my home!


LOVE IT!!

Running like crazy!!!

So this is my latest adventure!



Today I ran 10 miles it took me 1 hour and 50 mins. I'm tired when I'm done but man does it feel great!!!

Back at the sewing machine!

I know I made some of these last year but I totally love how they look, I had to make a few more!



Loving this Halloween fabric!


Makes you want pumpkins, colorful leaves, and apple cider!
Fall is one of my favorite times of year!

Bailey's 1st day of Dance!!!!!!!!!!!

It's amazing how fast time flys! I'm so excited that Bailey is taking dance, she dances all day and sings! I know that she will have a natural talent for this....I'm sort of jealous, I always wanted to take dance as a kid but never had the chance, so I'm sort of living through her....I promise that I won't be one of those scary pageant moms....She is so beautiful!



Showing off already!

Kinda not sure I wanna sell this one!!

I found this pattern and fell in love! but once I got started I had to change a bunch of strange things they wanted on the original pattern...So I susan-ized it and it so beautiful!



Sorry this picture does not do it justice!



I had this cute polka dot material for a long time and when I matched the two up I was giggling with excitement!! The red and pink flowers on the main material match completely with the polka dots...I love the splash of color on the inside....and YES there's a zippered pocket!

My latest crafting!!!

I bought one of these photo frames got it home and took a long look at it and said I can totally make another one....so thats what I did and now I have transformed them into photo shutters! I love how it looks on my wall, and when you walk in my front door it's there to greet you!





2 more 8x10's will be on the bottom as well!


Before the distressing & stain



After




Don't you love them??!

Hope you enjoy this as much as I did!

A thank you for everything I hold dear!

I was reading one of my friends post and she was expressing her thanks for her loved ones....It got me thinking that I don't do that enough....so here is my Thank You!




With out my sweet husband my life would not complete. He makes everything so wonderful. I can't ever imagine not being his eternal wife! He works so hard and never complains, the kids and I always have what we need. He is a wonderful father and husband. Thank you honey!!




Oh Bailey you warm my heart and make life so much more fun! You are such a great big sister!! You are always looking out for your brothers and make sure they have everything they need. You love to sing, dance, and are a ball full of energy! Thank you for being you!



Cole you are such a cut up! You love truck, tractors, and trailer....but have no problem joining sissy in dress-up, dolls, and what ever else she is interested in! I love you for that!!! You make me laugh and scream at the same time but thats what 2 yr. olds do!! I love that you pronounce Spiderman as "Wykaman"....it make me and dad giggle....Thank you honey!



Bridger "little man"....You are my happy boy! I love that you love sleep!!! You are learning to sit up by yourself and army crawl all over the house....makes me wonder if your going to be an early walker....not sure how I feel about that! You love cuddling with you. You light up every time you see Bailey and Cole, which makes me happy :) I can't imagine our family without you....Thank you for being a wonderful baby boy!




My life would not be the same with out those of you who have helped, loved, and nurtured me and my family and for that I'm eternally grateful! I am thankful for a home, and a working vehicle, food, my husbands job and willingness to work a 2nd, so that I can stay home with our children and raise them. So many go with out and I can't help be feel lucky to have what I do and I need to be more mindful of whats most important in ones life....which is family! I could go on and on......I love who I have become and I love what I have to look forward too. I pray that my family can be blessed on our journey through this life, Eternity is a wonderful thing to look forward too! Thank you family!!!!

Apparently I can't enough of this pattern!!!!

I'm hoping to be apart of a fall Boutique this year,

I would love to make more of these to sell!

Did I mention I'm addicted to my sewing machine!!

Here is another pattern that I have found and fallen completely in love with!!










This hat was made with love for my sweet niece Jayne...can't wait to see her and take pictures!

What you make for one, you have to make for the other!!

Can I just say CUTE!!!

I found this Rodeo material while I was pregnant with Cole....I've been saving it for over 2 years and have finally found the perfect use for it!!! He loves his new cushion....Bailey is jealous and wants one too so looks like I'm back at the sewing machine!
