Where the wild things are!

William is 4!  The party was a blast.  Between Halloween and the birthday party I am exhausted!  We all took a big sigh of relief at the end of the day.

…and an ocean tumbled by with a private boat for Max and he sailed off through night and day… 

This is what happens when I give my hubby some cardboard and ask for a boat. Amazing!

He also decorated the cupcakes!

Pin the tail on Max…

Homemade beanbag toss…. My carpet looks dirty in this picture. Ick! I promise that it’s not dirty! Well, not visibly dirty. Ha!

William has some of the cutest friends! I made them felt crowns with their initial. Super easy and super cute!

Thirsty little man!

Okay, now were ready for cupcakes!  Make a wish!

 

Delish.

Now it’s time for presents. Let’s start with the biggest first!

Happy birthday William!

 

Pumpkin Patch

We decided to skip the “Mega” pumpkin patch this year and just headed up the street to Joe’s Farm.  Ally had her face painted but William decided he didn’t want anyone coloring on his face.  He did tell Ally later that day “You look beautiful with that on your head”. LOL!  I agree:)

William was a little cowboy in the fort maze

And the best ride of all…

Then home for cocoa and cookies! I love fall. We took a fall walk later in the day and I was kicking myself for not bringing my camera!  Next time I will remember!

He’s ready for Halloween!

 

That makes one of us at least!  This “Max” costume was more work than I thought it would be, but so worth it!  William is turning 4 November 1st and will be having a Where the Wild Things Are birthday party. I’m working on decorations now. I have a lot to get done in the next few days!

And the Worthy Goods set-up…

Lori was hard at work:)

I still need to get a shot of you Debbie! Beware, I will get one at the next show;)

And a few spring pictures of Ally…

And I just LOVE this one of Cadence. I had a comment on Flickr that she looks like a little sparrow. So precious!

Worthy Goods

So, the show this weekend was just beautiful. It was called Whimsical Wishes, and some friends of mine had a booth there. Their company is called Worthy Goods. Gorgeous!

And a cute little spring picture of one of my favorite models

Off to sew, sew, sew some aprons!

Hiking and more projects…

I took a couple of my Jr.Highers hiking along with my kiddos. I thought I would post those pictures since I haven’t even uploaded my Easter pictures yet!

And some more projects…

Ally’s new quilt and pillow

A braided rug for William’s room that is taking MUCH longer than planned!

And this doll quilt and pillow were so much fun to make, and so cute! Ally’s friend Danielle wanted to sew a quilt for her doll, so it was the project at the last sleepover.

Now, my next project will be to get some Easter pictures uploaded and edited 😉

Oh, here is a link to my newest inspiration: http://grosgrainfabulous.blogspot.com/   Gorgeous!

Goofy

This is what happens when Ally and Danielle get together!
Daniell’s dad is in charge of video for our church, so they had a camera man handy for their little commercial. Thanks Randy!
