Pipi Longstockings

Kendall Longstockings that is. Kendall wanted me to knit her a pair of knee high socks. Well here they are. It took a long time (pun intended) to knit these, but they turned out really cool. Now all Kendall needs is some cool weather to wear them.

Aidan's Handmade.

A Painter's House is Never Painted!

Do you know the saying "a painter's house is never painted"? Well the gist of this is that the thing you do for money or others you hardly ever do for your self. Well I am guilty of this. I knit socks and I have given every pair I have ever knitted away. Well one of my summer break goals was to knit myself a pair of socks.....here they are in my favorite colors pink and red!

My Last One!

Kendall and Lacey Kate

10th grade and 9th Grade

It's hard to believe that my last child started high school today!! Long gone are the days of wearing a cute outfit I made for their first day of school. Nothing reminds you better how time flies then the major events in your childrens lives. Lacey had a good day, but is very tired and has already gone to bed. For Kendall it was just another day. She is very excited about her pottery class she will be taking this year.

They think there almost grown, but the picture tells the truth, they are still my little silly girls!

Todd and Aidan's Baptism

Today was a special day in the Biggs, Mavis and Hallberg families. Todd and Aidan were baptized!! I am very fortunate to be Aidan's Godmother, but as you can see he has a huge family that will be there to help Todd and Leslie with tons of love and support.

Leslie's Family

Todd(Aidan's Dad), Great-Grandmother Mavis, Great-Grandfather Mavis, Great Grand Aunt Stella( she is 101, isn't that incredible!), Bill (Aidan's Grandfather "Pops"), Pastor Kollmeyer, Leslie (Aidan's Mom) and Bonnie (Aidan's Grandma).

My Amazing and Wonderful Blessing!

Baby Clothes

As most of you know I love making baby clothes. Aidan is being baptized this coming Sunday, August 9th and Leslie and Todd allowed me the honor of making his outfit for this event. I haven't sewn much of recent so I got a great amount of pleasure from doing this. The bubble is made out of white pique with light blue whip stitch piping. I used Martha Pullen's Drew and Erin for the pattern. Spending time doing something you love is some of the best therapy I know.

Happy Anniversay!

Lindsay Ann and Eric celebrate 1 year of marriage today!
