Hold my Passport

Passport holder made using this tutorial. Made for Jenny B's birthday last month. She has to carry 3-4 other passports when traveling (not sure if she carries her husbands but she has 3 kids she carries for). I didn't use any stiffener in this because the 1st one I made I used peltex as suggested and that thing was a monster! The outside fabric and linings are all from the Heather Ross line Far Far Away 2 and a linen cotton blend I think so they are thicker than regular quilting cotton. I love it and wanted to keep it for myself:)

 I put initial stickers on everyone's passport so I can easily see whose is whose. The inside (below) got a little puckered at the top. 

These are the mushrooms I was talking about in a previous post. How cool are these?? For you Kelly:)

Ava's face is out of focus below. What am I doing wrong? Is it me or the lens? I have this problem with a lot of my pictures.

Pretending to be Zombies. Fake background? It looks like it doesn't it??

Keychain Clutch

Another keychain clutch from this keykalou pattern. This one is mine. It holds my very small, very old cell phone. Or I.D., chap stick and other small items.

Is anyone else in love with Bruno Mars as much as me?

I LOVE this song (this is not the video; I couldn't find one. just the music ).

Year 3

It's been 3 years since I started this blog! 

Three years ago today Ava was 6 weeks old and Emily was 2.5 years old.

A lot has changed since my 1st post!

I had a lot to say about being grateful, etc. but I'll keep it simple since some people skip the reading!

Today it was sunny! But mother chuckn' cold! Like 25-30 degrees cold. Emily and Ava have colds and Emily's cough is back. But since it was sunny, I made them go outside for a few minutes to take some pictures.

This hat Emily is wearing is mine but I think she looks so beautiful in this color so occasionally she wears it. She takes my breath away.  

Doesn't it look like Ava is holding the camera in the photo on the right?

Maybe she'll make it her face book profile picture.
