I’m Going to Wow You with My Mad Sewing Skillz!

(These are for my other 365 project… yes, I’m insane and I’m doing TWO Project 365’s! One is for my photography and the other is just for my girls and their daily lives. These are for my girls’ project today… day 50! I’ve actually made it 50 days without missing any pictures! I love to look back and remember the little tidbits of their lives!)

So, Autumn brings me a pair of pajama bottoms this morning and tells tells me to cut off the legs because they have holes in the knees. I cut them off and tell her to throw the scraps away. She pauses for a minute, then tells me she wants to make a dress for her Calm-Down Bear! So I cut some holes in the sides for sleeves and put the scrap on her care bear. She then tells me to make one for Summer’s Calm-Down Bear too! So the two Calm-Down Bears have matching dresses! Aren’t they so cute! So, do you want me to make you a dress now? I’m available…

On both photos, I used my newly released Photo Veils from the Simplicity Collection! They are so fast and easy to use! I whipped these two photos out in less than a minute! Check them out… you will love them!!

I Love These Girls!

Isn’t this the cutest thing you’ve ever seen? They found Autumn’s light desk and used it for a light to read books at bedtime! Summer is “reading” the story to Autumn.

Temper, Temper…

This is what I get when I try to take a picture of Summer! Nearly every. single. time. She was pretty mad at me today when I was caught taking pictures of her!

Sweet Little Summer

Summer wanted to take some pictures like mommy, so I handed her my brownie! She loves it! And I couldn’t help getting a little shot of her piggie-tails! They’re so cute!

Dang! I Love This Girl!

Dang! I love this girl! I can’t think of anything else to say but that!

My Beautiful Sister!

Doesn’t she make a gorgeous bride? I couldn’t wait until next week to post a picture from her wedding! So here’s a little peek!

Merry Christmas

We hope you all have a very Merry Christmas! I’m going out of town this week so my blog will be taking a little break. I’ll be back next week with some sweet pictures of my sister’s wedding!

Autumn’s Artwork

Autumn drew this picture of Santa Claus this week. Isn’t it so cute? Of course, I am a little biased but I think she is a great little artist!

A Little Sneak Peek!

Today I ran over to my sister’s to take some pictures of her shoes and dress before her wedding on Saturday. I’m so glad I did this! It saved a bunch of time! Misti has two outfits for that day and so we have two shoe pictures! I just love her shoes, they are gorgeous! I took tons of pictures and I really like this “pose!” It’s so fun!

An Early Christmas Present

We have not had a working printer for months now. It’s been a little bit of a pain, but I started to not really miss it after a while. I never printed many things, mostly it was Autumn printing out stacks of pictures from Noggin! A couple weeks ago Aaron brought home a surprise…a new printer/scanner/copier. A flatbed scanner/copier! I have boxes of pictures and artwork that Autumn has made over the years that I can’t seem to part with. But now! I can scan them! Whee! Aaron hooked it up a couple nights ago!

My sister-in-law Jenny had such a great idea that I think I am going to do now. She scans her children’s artwork and special papers and makes Shutterfly books out of them. Isn’t that the coolest idea?! I’m so excited! I can’t wait to start one of my own. Here are my first two scans!

This is a picture that Autumn drew a couple weeks ago. It is “Plain Gramma” holding some oranges! I love it!! It is so dang cute! “Plain Gramma” is my mom. Autumn came up with the name to differentiate between her two grammas! Aaron’s mom is called “Nana Gramma.”

And this one is a letter to Santa Claus Autumn wrote in kindergarten today! Isn’t it so cute?!! I love her “That’s what I wants!” Dang! I love this newfangled scanner contraption! I foresee a lot of use in its future!
