Good Mail Day!!

I LOVE good mail days. And I have had a couple this week. Today I received two packages.

The first package was a yard of Susan Branch Tea Time Fabric. I am so in love with this and glad I oppted to buy a yard instead of a fat quarter as I tend to do.

The second box was a package from my dear friend over at Amber Apple. I have known Amber since she was in high school. She is an amazing young woman. She hosted a give away on her blog and I won. She sent me a tea cup!

Some beautiful fabric and home made cookies!

Some Earl Grey Tea, and a scarf she crocheted

.

Not the best picture but I tried!!!

What about you anything exciting in your mail box this week?

Menu Monday

I was going to wait until later in the day to post so I could include pictures that I plan on taking today. But the girls are down for naps and the house is quiet so I am going to take advantage of that and blog now. Maybe I will blog again later after I take fabric pictures. :)

I have seen a lot of ladies doing Menu Monday posts and I love it. I am not sure if there is a place to link up or if it simply something people are doing independently but I figured either way I would jump on board.I figured this was a good week to jump on since I only had to plan 4 meals. I am leaving town Friday to go to the wedding of a childhood friend. So excited for him and his beautiful bride! :) Josh and I also agreed not to spend any money at restaurants during lent, so hopefully this will keep me honest and a little more oganized. So with out further ado...


Monday- Crock Pot BBQ shredded Chicken, broccoli, and biscuits.
Tuesday- Tacos, Corn, and Re-fried beans
Wednesday - Sausage, Salsa, Rice and Corn served with corn bread
Thursday- Sloppy Joes on home made buns with broccoli and home made cookies for dessert.

So there you go. Our simple meals for the week. I am going to be super busy with shop stuff and getting ready for my trip so I am trying to keep dinners low key. What about you? What are you all fixing this week?

Busy Busy

I have been meaning to post FOREVER! It's been a very productive few days. Lots of sewing going on which I love. Sadly part of that is due to sick kids, which means stuck at home more. Don't mind being home or sewing, but feel so bad for those little ones.

One thing I was able to get done was a lap top sleeve. I used some of the amazing Central Park fabric my husband bought me. I've gotten a lot else done as well.

I made two picture frame wipe boards.
Made two window toy bags for the girls
Worked on the Pure Love quilt. I am 1/2 done with the binding. ALMOST THERE!
Almost done with two mug rugs to match that.
Finished Abi's "Christmas" quilt
Worked on some custom orders.

All in all a pretty productive week. We had to stay home from church today due to cruddy tummies. I think we are finally done with it though. I missed being at church but took advantage of the rainy day and spent it on the sofa hand sewing the back of binding down. Got a whole bunch done. Hope you all had a great weekend and are well rested for the week to come.

Both my girls are really into hats right now. The funny thing is how different they are in their choice of hats.

 This is Abi Bear. She is my girly, girl. My drama queen. My princess. My sensitive one. She loves pretty things, and playing out side. She loves pink, and babies and anything princess. She hates being sticky. She won't even help make rice crispy treats because it makes her hands sticky. She loves this hat because it is pink, looks like a princess and belongs to Mama. And I love her.

 This is Maddie Goose. She is my dare devil. My prankster. My bully. My funny one. She will do anything for  laugh and will enjoys provoking her sister into chasing her around the house. She is 19 months and so much of her personality is just starting to bloom. She is rough and tumble. Loves dirt, loves eating, and hates when Daddy leaves for work. She loves wearing Daddy's hats around the house. And I love her.

Both my girls are so amazing. I love how sweet and different they each are. Today however, they are with my in laws so I can have some down time. Most likely to sew. I have so much sewing to do today! I am hoping to stay focused and make a dent. Maybe then my brain will function again. It feels so cluttered with projects right now.


Happy Weekend!

A Gift from Hubby (Central Park)

This beautifully wrapped package showed up on my door step yesterday!

Burgundy Buttons was having a sale and my amazing husband bought me some fabric. 

(Ok so I picked it out, but he did the actually ordering and surprised me with the gift wrap and the card.)

The Sugar Pop charm pack is to make hair ties for the shop.

But the Central Park fat eighths are just for me! Not sure exactly what I am going to do with them. I know I will be making a sleeve for my new mini lap top. I will probably also pull out some of the blue to add to my kitchen fabrics.
