Craft time.-Butterfly & Bumblebee

Saturday night, my daughter and I had so much fun working on this craft. Butterfly, and bumblebee- using toilet paper rolls! For this craft you will need: -Craft paper -Scissors -glue stick -markers/crayons -toilet paper roll Start off with  taking your tp roll, apply glue over it, and apply your craft paper around the tp roll. Make sure to cover the entire roll. Now once that part is done just use your imagination and creativity. I actually cut a few strips and used them on the bumblebee's body. You can create wings, and whatever you would like to see on your creations. We really enjoyed this fun and easy craft. Once we were all done my daughter chased our pug around with the bumblebee! :) Enjoy!  Creativity is inventing, experimenting, growing, taking risks, breaking rules, making mistakes, and having fun. ~ Mary Lou Cook

My sweet little one...

Today our little princess turns 2. Where did the time go? My goodness, they grow so fast. I remember when she was first learning how to crawl, and now she runs, climbs, jumps....the list goes on. We had a hello kitty theme going for this birthday celebration. She loved it! She woke up this morning and was surprised at all the decorations we had put out the night before. :) We are still working on making her Art Easel, and we are so excited for her to use it!  I baked some cupcakes, (carrot cake cupcakes) and we enjoyed a delicious breakfast that daddy made.  Today has been a beautiful day; I thank God for blessing us with such a beautiful, loving, precious, outgoing little princess. She has changed our lives for the better.  God is so good.  I'm so happy that we were able to put a huge smile on her face today as we celebrated her 2nd birthday.           "While we try to teach our children all about life, our children teach us what life is all about."

Sewing complete..maybe a hike later :)

I finally finished a few sewing projects I started for my daughter. It was so nice to see these projects complete. I sewed her a little hello kitty tote, and a hello kitty blanket, along with a pillow case. (Those two are stored away, I'm waiting to surprise her with those on her birthday tomorrow) What projects have you started on?                   Today we are having some beautiful weather, I'm sure we will all go for a nice stroll, or maybe even a little hike. :) I hope you all have a wonderful Saturday.

Handprint messages! {Just Be you You}   All I used was- -paint (I used some finger paint for kids) -little hands :) -Craft paper -and a sharpie!   Yes it's a little messy...but it's so fun!     Fun Doggy hat with floppy ears     We did this fun craft at the library. All you need for this projects is:   -Construction paper -scissors -stapler -glue stick   It's really simple, start off by measuring your child's head, cut a thick strip from the construction paper , and overlap and staple. After you create the ears (Any shape you would like) We decided to make ours droop. :) Then cut them out, and glue them onto the hat. All done!     Enjoy!      
Family = unconditional love, happiness,  home, future , memories... forever This weekend was so lovely.  Every day spent with my family is pure joy! Today we were pretty busy (since my husband is on leave) and planning for an upcoming birthday for our sweet little one. We took our daughter to Stay and play at the library, it was so much fun. We danced, sang, and read books. After I went to my favorite place (The dentist office)...I'm kidding, really it's my least favorite place to go to, but hey we all have to keep our smiles healthy. :) After my appointment we spent most of our day shopping for birthday decorations, and crafts. Even though we had a busy day, I always try and fit in a craft with my daughter. Today we made puppets. I found two kits at the craft store. I couldn't pass it up, it was so cute! And we also painted some spring time tulips (So fun). How was your day spent with your family? How beautiful a day can be When kindness touches it! ~George Elli
