Oh to be 12 again

..To be young and gorgeous would be fun. I just found this on my computer. It is great. My craft room is a mess, so please ignore it. I didn't realize that Bella had gone down to my craft room on thanksgiving and did this video. 12 year olds girls are a kick. This made my day. Love ya Bella.

Sofia's Birthday

Today is my granddaughter's birthday. She is going to be seven. I don't get to see her as much as I would like, thank goodness for the internet. She is so sweet, and beautiful {did you see her eyes} she loves to read, do crafts, and she loves soft cuddly bunny rabbits. She also loves spending time with her brother and her daddy and mom. She is my sweet angel, and I love her so much. I hope she has the best day ever. I miss you. Happy Birthday Sofia

Bella

this is the pillow I made her 
cake pops for her birthday {yum}
Today is my granddaughter's birthday. I can't believe she has grown up so fast. It seems like yesterday she was born. She has grown into a beautiful young girl. She makes my heart sing. She is smart, very athletic, outgoing, fun to be around, loving, and very warm hearted. I 'm so proud of her. And hope this day is very special for her. I love you Bella. Happy Birthday.

Today is my anniversary. It's been quite a ride. We have had our good times, and also our fair share of bad times. But I choose to focus on the good, which has far exceeded the bad. When I look back on all the years we have been together I remember all the trips we have done. We bought a travel trailer 6 months after we were married and used it for about 12 years. We used to take 2 week trips with 3 kids and a least one of my little brothers. what was I thinking????? But really it was fun. We always went with my husband parents, or other family members. We cooked almost every meal outside. Now that our family has grown we still go camping, but this time it's in a 32 ft motorhome. Now we take our kids and grandkids. It's still fun! Here's to many more years of fun Jerry. Happy Anniversary.

My mom turned 85 on jan 10th, so for her birthday I made her this pillow. I saw it on rhonna's blog and decided to try it. Not bad for my first try. I made the flowers from felt. I found a lot of the patterns on snazziedrawers, If you haven't been to her blog you should. She sells the patterns and instructions for a really good price. I also have wanted to made cake pops for a while so I made her some also. They are really good. And easy to make. Have a good wednesday.

It's been awhile since I last wrote. So many things have been happening. I am no longer working,which seems very different. Good in some ways not so good in others. I have been able to do a lot more crafting. Been making a lot of gifts for my family. Fabric flowers and pillows and felt pillows. I will be posting pictures of them soon. Have a good day,
