Hope For Skylar

Some friends of ours started a website for their little girl who is very sick.
She has been through so much in her tiny little life and she and her family need so much help. You can see her story on her blog Baby Skylar. If you can help I know it would be much appreciated.

more junk

I learned how to make nursing covers a while back and have been making them A LOT.  I just love how they've turned out.  Especially this one on the right that I made for my super awesome and pregnant friend, Jeannette. 

 Finally made some pillow covers for my fugly couch pillows.  Man they look so much better.

Maddison turned 3

I can't believe my sweet Maddi turned 3 years old already!!!  She is so wonderful.  The three best things about Maddi are:
3. She is so easy and laid back, always has been! I can go on an hour long car drive with just her and not hear a peep out of her.  I can sit her in front of a movie and she sits still and watches the whole thing.
2. Maddi is very kind to her brother and sister.  She doesn't flip out like every other kid when she doesn't get what she wants.  She'll give you anything you want if you just say pWease. 
1. She has the most and best personality of any kid I know.  She says the funniest things at all the most unexpected times.  She can make you forget about your crappy day by surprising you with a "secret" i love you.  She dances the robot and sings beautifully.  I just love this girl!

We started off her day at the party store getting balloons and treats for her friends and cousins.

Then we hit good ol Krispy Kreme for a free dozen!

We went to Subway for lunch, per Maddison's request.  And by then we were all ready for a nap, hence the non smiling picture.

Later that night we went to Peter Piper Pizza for dinner and a party with family and friends.  We were so glad that everyone could come and help us celebrate!!


We couldn't be more grateful that Maddison Jeannette is a part of our family.  She brings us so much happiness and I couldn't imagine a day without her.  We love you Maddi and happy birthday!!

Christmas Catch Up

I didn't realize how far behind I'd gotten til today.  Here we go since Christmas...


Here's some of the stuff I made over the holidays.

These shirts and bows for the girls on Christmas turned out so cute I think!!

This is our new Christmast advent calendar that I learned to make from RS. There were hersheys kisses behind each day.

I gave TONS and TONS of chocolate covered pretzel rods and twizzlers to friends. (this is only about 1/3 of what I made)

How cute did my kids look in their Christmas Sunday clothes?!
And I had to throw this pic in there cause it's probably the cutest one I've ever seen of B and E.

For some reason I can't find my pictures from Christmas morning except this one.  Maddi got this uber cute Dumbo from her Cousin Jarrod.

 My mom and I took the kids up to Mesa to see the temple lights!

Maddi was the only one brave enough to sit on Santa's lap at the ward Christmas party.
