A little Pinterest inspiration and a birthday party..

While recovering this morning from yesterday's adventure, I found myself cruising Pinterest and looking at little sewing projects for gifts to come when I came across a photo of a ruffled apron. The link didn't seem to be working so a quick google search found a variety of directions which I looked through and pulled together a an apron for my daughters friend who was having a party today.

A little digging in my stash found I don't have many bigger pieces of fabric (something to work on!) and I struggled to find some fabrics I liked together. In the end this is what our
little project looked like! Ignoring the totally clashing dress. Think I'll try my hand at a tutorial when I make my next one!

A Big Kids Day Out!

Yesterday I took the oldest two to Michigan Adventures to have a little fun in the sun! While they loved spending time at the Waterpark and later riding the roller coasters I had a blast watching them grow into the amazing little ones they are!

Just Getting Started...

Well, I'm gonna give it a go and start sharing some of the things I feel are dynamic in my life...my kids, my husband, my teaching, my life...

I have four amazing children who inspire me everyday!  I have a husband whom I love and adore and keeps me laughing to no end!  I have six students at school who make my work life rewarding and meaningful!  I have a sewing machine that keeps my artistic side going and a passion for cooking that never quite gets there....

The combination of these things make my life happy and fulfilling!  So...here we go...
