Busy

Things have been busy around here. Crazy busy...but a good busy. So I have a few things to catch up on.
H. recently had her first haircut. I had it evened out so it is a little less mullet like.

I have done a lot of sewing for Christmas. Most of it is for gifts so I will have to post about that after they have all been opened. One thing I did was make a felt garland. It was super easy and quick. The longest part was cutting out all of the circles. But I had lots of interruptions. I am pleased with how it turned out and am thinking of other ways to use this idea. Perhaps little triangles for a birthday party. This would be a great first project for someone wanting to learn how to use a sewing machine.
Circles cut out...

A couple of weeks ago S and G had picture day at gymnastics. Here are a few shots. This is where I work one day a week.

Can it be?

Nine years ago today, you asked me a question. You had a beautiful plan and it is one of the only ones to date that I didn't see coming. I can't believe that it has been that long. We have been through so much together over these years. I can't imagine sharing it with anyone else. I am so glad I said "yes."
