Hunks

The boys received these V-Day shirts in their Valentine mailbox. I had so much fun making them that I made them matching party shirts for Bear's 1st Birthday coming up this weekend.

Valentine's Day

I know Valentine's Day was two weeks ago, but I wanted to document the awesome roasted chicken Bond made for our dinner, the beautiful flowers....my favorite kind, and the delicious fondue with our favorite friends. :)

It Feels Like Home

One of the things I have felt so grateful for is that we felt at home almost immediately after moving to Nebraska this past August. We feel so blessed to live in a place where we feel safe and happy. But no home is truly a home without a wreath. :) So here is my attempt at a "no-sew wreath" found on the first session of "So You Think You're Crafty"

I love how it goes perfectly with the quilt my mom made for us when we got married.

SICK

February has not been kind to us in the health department. We have been through two bouts of the stomach flu, a viral infection, colds, and now an ear infection. After several weeks of at least one of us being sick, we are READY for warm and happy weather. Come on Spring!

The Mailbox

Using the tutorial found here, http://giverslog.com/?p=2531, I made this mailbox for Bug to use for "The 14 Days of Valentine's Day". Each Day from the 1st of February until the 14th he received something from the mailman. He would wait anxiously for the flag to be up so that he could see what the mailman had brought that day. It was a fun tradition to start, but I will have to start getting more creative for next year when Bear can enjoy it too so that it doesn't get too costly for "The Mailman".

I'm still alive.

Our computer has been gone for over a month and now that we have it back I am soooooo overly ready to post the million and one things I have made and experienced this month. So stay tuned for hopefully a post everyday for the next week or two.

Thank Heavens for Girls
