CAPES

I decided to dredge up an old idea from when my boys were little and see if the Grandsons liked them. SUPERHERO capes. They are reversible with their letter and supername on one side and then their favorite thing on the other. They wrap around their waists and are held with Velcro. Tyson likes dinosaurs so this is what I came up with.



So far no luck. THEY DON'T LIKE THEM! Except for one instance when Emma said she went to check on the twins who were supposed to be napping and she found Fischer totally naked except for his cape and he kept saying "Bams!" (That is what he calls me.) Oh well, maybe when they get a little older.

I'VE BEEN SEWING LATELY




My latest thing has been Pillowcase Dresses with a bit of a variation. I made one for Miley J with some bloomers to match and then one for Aubrey. It's the models that make them look so cute.

How many Grandmas does it take to Fly a kite?


I just spent a long weekend in Goblin Valley with my daughter Emma and her family and my wonderful friends the Waites. We played in the dirt and ate like piggies, flew kites and rode 4 wheelers, ate some more like piggies and had a wonderful time.















Since our Papa Roy wasn't there we had to use
Grandpa Sid to show our war wounds to.




We had a wonderful day on April 12th. My Granddaughter Hailey was baptized. I was really pleased with the way her dress turned out.
