Ruffle Tote
2013 creative pay-it-forward – Do you remember that facebook status for January. Well I finally did two of mine, Yay! One was a Ruffle Canvas Tote. I pinned a Ruffle tote bag from Etsy a long while bag (can’t find my pin now) and made one for my sister for Christmas and I had told ...

Missionary Tuesday
On Sunday I met dear Bro & Sister Hollaway from Cheney, WA. They brought me Stephanie’s box off ‘Please fix this’ stuff and her “winter clothes”. The winter clothes I told her not to buy and take with her, because there was nothing in Palm Springs, CA that was going to keep her warm during ...
Finish Friday
Yay, I finally sewed something. It seems that every time that I make big plans and voice big dreams, I crash into a pole or get hit by a train or run over by a bus, well not literally that would suck because I dream big an awful lot. So I decided to dream small, ...

5 week kittens
I woke up one night to Marley screeching. I hadn’t heard her make those noises before. I walk into the bedroom where she had moved her kittens to, and she is sitting there outside the closet doors staring at her kittens trying to escape. They had figured out they have claws and were able to ...

Why do kids only remember to say I love you when you give them money? or is that just my kid? Money is scarce around here, or at least my brain thinks it is. Yet every time a new expense or Stephanie’s bank account is empty and I go check my account to see how ...

Happy Mother’s Day
Mother’s Day is a very very good day for the mother of a missionary. You get to hear their voice and if you are lucky you get to see them on Skype. When Stephanie Skyped on Christmas, she was able to see us but we were not able to see her, we thought it was ...
Missionary Tuesday
We (as a family) have always had the problem of word vomit. It happens when we get stressed or mad. We have tried time and time again to stop saying negative derogatory and vulgar words but they just come out. We have tried the quarter jar, we have tried the rubber band bracelet in the end we resort ...
3 week kittens
I’m feeling very lost with the kittens. I guess we were touching them too much because Marley picked them all up one night and moved them. I totally started freaking out because I couldn’t find them and Marley was out and about like nothing. It took me another whole night to find them again, she ...
