easter


I wish I would have had somebody take a family photo. At least I got this one of all the kids. :)


and... because I promised a picture of the cabbage dyed eggs. They turned out just as beautiful as I had imagined. I will be using cabbage again next year. :)

a few previews and....

A giveaway warning! I'm working on a blog post for a giveaway... the product and contest will be announced on Monday, so stay tuned.

In the meantime, enjoy these previews...

This diaper is for my son, Baby O. I have one available cut of this fabric for an AIO for you... I think I'll surprise you with a different color velour. There was a little extra fabric (not quite enough for a complete diaper) left after the cut, so Baby O gets yet another cool diaper. :)


These trees are waiting for snaps!



And so is Mr. Shark.

Have some fun names in mind for these diapers? Leave a comment here - or head over to my FB page and leave a comment there...

eggs :)

I decided to do a little natural egg dying last night. I have a bunch of diapers almost ready, but, hey, it's almost Easter... egg dying was in order. ;)

soooo... I cooked up some carrots and paprika for some orange eggs....

and some frozen spinach for green... That's all I had around the house. Sorry, no spontaneous trips to the store for me.

It didn't look very promising last night... not much color, but I put them in the fridge and went to bed....


This morning I had a bunch of muddy brown camo-ish eggs in my fridge. Not quite the bright green I saw in my dream. lol! But I think they're pretty nifty. I think I wiped the orange ones a little too much because there were some nice bright orange spots on them.















I now have a head of cabbage on my counter... I soooo want to get a bright blue egg. I'll let you know how it turns out. :)

long overdue for a blog post

We've been hangin the clothes on the line... Knitting.... Lounging in the sun with cousins.... Picking flowers and taking trips to the chuck wagon.... Making the birds go batty... tie dying.... and, while Mommy made an important phone call, Daddy let the six year old wash the dishes.... Thankfully, we don't have to rely on the six year old to wash the dishes. :)
