And the flowers have to be tended to:
I had some aprons I wanted to "decorate" and gift to friends and family. These were aprons I bought half price at Hobby Lobby, and just added the embellishments to.
These weren't pressed yet but I think they're pretty cute and will be a big hit!
I've also done some spring cleaning - all the blinds and windows, pantrys and closets. I'm not showing you those but trust me, they're clean. :)
I finished the stitching but not the finishing on this cross stitch piece.
And just yesterday got the last hand stitching done on this Independence Day pillow.
I've probably made a dozen of these but everyone who comes by my house wants one so I only have this one left right now!
In my cleaning frenzy I found a couple of old pictures that I'm going to put on here for family primarily but you might enjoy them too.
This was the one and only time in my life I ever had a birthday party - I was 5 and wanted desperately to be a cowgirl. This little outfit was my gift. :)
This is a picture of my parents I believe right after daddy got home from WW II. I look a bit like my mother I think.
This is a picture of my husband and I with our three "kids." The one standing by her daddy is the oldest, the one standing next to her brother is the middle child, and the boy is the "golden child" as his sisters call him. He was a late baby born when they were 8 and 11. What do you think? Do I look like my mother?
