Back to Craft

I've been seriously missing my craft time lately. What with all the house organizing I'm too exhausted in the evenings to work on any of my projects.

But I haven't been able to find an area rug for the kitchen that I like/can afford so I've started a NEW project. I'm making a rag rug.

I spent four dollars at the thrift store on old sheets, tore them into strips and rolled them up.

Here's what I've got so far.

Funny Face

Lily has discovered winking. And oh does she try!



Almost there, just a bit more practice. :)

Chores

Hey, someone's got to "mow" the lawn!

Yes that's our new reel mower. Since we have a postage stamp size lawn we are required to care for. And I just can't see loading the kids in the van. Going to self help. Unloading the kids. Loading a mower and the kids.... You get where I'm going with this, all to mow our 10x10 ft lawn. So we bought our own mower.

Put that girl to work!

Assume the Position!

There's been a whole lot of TV watching in this house lately. It's been my crutch so I can get things unpacked. Only a small part of me really feels bad about it.  After all, walking around the house from one room to the another moving things (and all the rest) drives David into fits of screaming.

Which I'd rather not hear.

Sometimes they manage to play nicely together. :)

Another Birthday

Happy Birthday to my sister Stevie! We convinced her to come have dinner with us tonight and she chose angel food cake with strawberries and cream for dessert.
