Who couldn't wait???

We scored another great item off of Craigs List...and of course Tony couldn't wait to give Cole his present - early. We've had a lot of fun already!

Cole's Birthday is Sunday!!!

Don't forget that it's Cole's birthday on Sunday!!!!! He turns 2...can you believe it?! He has his own blog with his wish list :)

Did he touch the "Wormin"????

I came home this weekend to find Cole and Tony so amazed at something that they couldn't even say hi. This is what they were doing... Cole's first face-to-face with a wormin (that's the name from Cole's favorite show, The Backyardigans)...Do you think he touched it??? (It's a video - click on the play button at the lower left corner.)

What a weekend!

My cousin, Miranda, sister Christy, and I, went up to Mountain, WI, to get all domesticated with guidance from our Aunt, Lisa (Miranda's Mom). What a fun weekend!!!!

We started out at 9 p.m. with a knitting lesson...

I LOVE Lisa's teaching style, don't you?

We stayed up knitting until 3 a.m.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Saturday was the sewing day... and food...

Thanks to Lisa's awesome cooking, I think I gained 10 lbs!!! YUMMO!Christy and Miranda were soooooo excited just to have a pocket done!

But look at how awesome their aprons turned out!Of course Lisa's was the best, since she is an old pro :) I also made some reversible eye-makeup remover pads....

I am doing my part to save the Earth...one cotton pad at a time!Here's my apron...
It's a "Clothespin Apron".
Most people actually hang their clothes on the line to dry here...
This has already come in handy!
I got the tutorial (I used this word a lot thie weekend - in annoyance of everyone else) at:
