Good Surprise

Good things come in small packages!

No, not that kind... This kind!

Our family excitedly welcomes the newest addition, a little neice, Abigail Violet! She was so excited to get here, she couldn't wait. She's a tiny peanut at 5lbs 12oz, but she's strong and healthy. We love you, sweet Vi, (and her Mommy & Daddy)! Praise God for His great gifts!

Sorry, Rhino!

Yup, another online find, from a great little shop I discovered. I told you I was on a sewing kick. And I'm not even done yet. But I did finish the curtains for the boys' room. It's cute- they're so excited about them. While I was working they were hovering over me, watching. As I cut the fabric, Trevor observed that I was cutting the animals, and suggested that I apologize to each one. Sorry, Giraffe!

Lazy Daisy Days of Summer

I saw this fabric online, and instantly fell in love with it. Summer may be over on the calendar, but I think these cheerful valances in my living room will keep us thinking of summer all year round!

Pucker Up!

The way they tie into real life is just one of the things I love about unit studies! Last week we studied Lentil, which referenced the way that sucking on a lemon can cause another person to pucker-up. So we tried it out!

Today we had rice cakes, in honor of Ping the duck. They were a lot more popular than the lemon!
