My latest Creations

This weekend was awesome. I got to spend some time with a bunch of friends at Time Out for Women in SLC. We all stayed overnight in one of their Gma's condo and had a great time. Thanks so much for the fun! It was a much needed reprieve from the daily grind. :) Maybe we should do this monthly? I wish! But, it did make me think I need to get out more without the kids and have some time to myself. It certainly has helped me be a happier momma this week. (The uplifting speakers and amazing music helped a little too. ;)

I went to my sister Ali's today and made a name board for Ella. I already had one made for Addie from when she was a newborn and though it was about time I did something for Ella. Ali helped me a lot with it - thanks for the supplies and handwriting! After seeing how this turned out I may have to make a new one for Addie!

I think I've posted a pincushion I made on here before, BUT this is a new and improved one. :) Plus, it's cute.

Hooray for Thanksgiving next week! And Hooray for James' birthday!


I found Addison sitting at her Elmo table reading one of James' school books and couldn't resist sharing it with everyone. She's so funny! (and so studious!)

Nemo Birthday Cake


I told Addison awhile ago that I would make any cake she wanted for her birthday and we decided together, after looking at pictures online, to make a Nemo cake. It turned out pretty well for my first time! It was a lot of work though - I can't imagine decorating cakes for a living! I would definitely have carpal tunnel doing all those stars. We celebrated a few days early with the Harward Clan.

So Happy Birthday to our little Addison this week!

Halloween pictures to come . . .
