This week's photo challenge is Family.

I sure love how we can be silly together, laugh together, play together, and be ourselves together! I love us.

Favorite photo from March

My brother had come out to DC to visit us and we were downtown checking out the monuments when we spotted the most beautiful, huge, pink and white blossoms and we had to stop! They really popped out over night. It was such a wonderful sight and the perfect spring day!

The challenge this week is eyes. I love how blue Aly's eyes are.

She just learned to whistle and blow out of her mouth so this photo is only fitting for this week!

fabric flowers

I totally love using scraps for useful things instead of throwing them away. I recently came across this rossette tutorial here that has a different take on rosettes. I like the look better than the plain twisted ones...

I glued mine onto a pillow I made using fabri-tac. I seriously love that stuff for anything I'm making with fabric. It can be found at any craft or sewing store. I also used the glue instead of sewing the flower and I feel like it was easier.

They would be so cute to add to a beanie like the girl that made the tutorial did... oh the possibilities!
