"I NEED it!"

I just had to put this in here, and Wendy's newest blog with this picture of Aaron was perfect!!!
Joseph, Wendy, Sam and Suzan and all the little boys were in Aiken this weekend, so I thought it was awesome when I got a happy birthday email today from my friend back home, Melanie, with this p.s.:

"P.S. your nephews are so cute!!! In sacrament meeting Aaron kept going 'I NEED it, I NEED the book!' It was rather cute!"

I just love those kids!!!

Walkin' in a Winter Wonderland...Happy May

May 1st, and I wake up to a scene much like this:





Blech.

These pictures were actually taken the week before (exactly), when it snowed like crazy for most of the day, but it looked pretty much the same. My roommate Chelsea always has the best attitude about everything, so when we all complained about the snow she said, "It's ok, let's just pretend like it's Christmas or something!" Maybe we should just leave our Christmas decorations up all year long.


It's actually not all that bad. It's been getting up into the 60's the rest of the time! We've just had a few days of this. I had a classmate that came into class on Thursday (the first day of MAY) and said, "So when they die, somebody needs to have a talk with God about this weather!" I suppose we should just be "grateful for the moisture," but I'd appreciate it coming in the form of rain...

Welcome to Idaho. If you don't like the weather, wait 10 minutes.




Just so long as it doesn't snow on my birthday. That's all I ask.

LOOK HOW CUTE!!!!!

Ta-Da!!! Here is my first project from my children's sewing class! We did a baby cap and pair of booties, and I am absolutely thrilled at how well they turned out! I love just how teeny tiny they are! Both were pretty easy to make, but the booties were tricky because they are so small. The toughest part was sewing the white ribbing (the sock/cuff part) onto the top of the foot.
So far, I LOVE this class! And I mean, honestly -- look how cute!!!
