Birthday Party Soon

Had to share my husband's great theme idea for Lars' bday party. I can't remember the last party we had for him, possible age 2? Poor guy!
It should be fun though, we will be swimming and playing "Minute to Win It" games. I am excited to see how he and his buddies like it. Now to figure out how many get to go. I was trying to keep it small, then at the dinner table last night, he told Bret, "I shoudl be able to invite how many I am" - meaning if I am 5 I get to invite 5. Bret thought that seemed pretty logical. I laughed as I was trying to kep it small and manageable. That may be out the winow! HA

Upcycle- St. Patty's Day

I finally made an upcycle! I have been wanting to for some time- but after being inspired by all the ones I see on line, I told myself to kick it and get one done.

I thought St. Patty's Day was doable and I found 3 great shirts at Goodwill to recycle into my DD dress. I used my Wendy as my guide(for the line) as I love the fit of it.

I do not have it hemmed yet as I need to try it on her to check length. Likely I will just serge the hem as well. It did go together very quickly- an hour?ish? But the cutting and assembling took a bit longer than that.

I can't wait to get a pic of DD in it!

February Fashion Show

So my camera cord has been missing. Here is a large upload to see what my angels have been wearing this month. I have been clearing closets- ready for this weather to change! My son is moving 100% out of 4s and into 5s. His legs finally and suddenly decided to grow and perhaps they will make his torso look less freakishly long!
