Make It Monday: Four Naps, Four Crafts

-
In an effort to clean up that sewing table and organize this place, I did four crafts during four nap times.
1. First Nap= Christmas scrapbook.
Every year we get lots of Christmas picture cards. It seems like such a waste to throw them away, but I never know what to do with them. So, this year I decided to put them in a book so we can keep them and look at them from year to year. I love how it turned out! 2. Second Nap- Burp Clothes
I wanted to finish up the rest of my burp clothes and get some ready for baby shower presents. I made a girl set and a boy set... which set do you think WE should keep?
3. Nap Three- Jewelry Display
I have lots of costume type jewelry that I was keeping in a box but couldn't see what I had. I tended not to wear the pieces because I would forget I had them. This way, I can display them and wear them more often. I love how it turned out!

4. Nap Four- Purse
I finally finished up this purse I was sewing. I had one final thing I needed to buy and never got around to it. I finally finished it and it is really cute! (And it feels good to have it finished!)

Ok, getting things cleaned up and more to come! Make it a great week:)

Busy Couple Days

We have had a busy couple days trying to get everything together for our trip. My mother came over the end of last week and it has been so helpful. I have been able to do errands and gather our needed supplies for the trip. I haven't taken many pictures but we have had a fun time and the boys have enjoyed their time as well. Friday we did the majority of our packing and tonight we are going to finish up. Yesterday, we enjoyed some time at a playground in the morning. In the afternoon, my mom and Sam went to see Toy Story 3 (his first big screen movie) while Hap, Andrew and myself went to a birthday party. Sam got these glasses pictured below at Wendy's yesterday and we might try and see if security stops him in the airport:) This evening we had our last team meeting and it was a wonderful time of praying and sharing about what God has been teaching us as we prepare for this trip. We know that it seems odd to some that we would take our children literally half way around t...

On Saturday, Nathan, Heather and Caleb came for a visit.  We had an absolutely beautiful day, and we wanted to spend the day outside.  Some people had recommended Maymont Park.  Maymont is a park that is hundreds of acres with a stone castle and barn, some animals, and lots of space for the boys to run around. Andrew wanted to get his boots wet and Aunt Heather supervised.  I am glad we crated more boots! The walk with beautiful and we enjoyed visiting along the way. There was lots of rock climbing... and lots of goats! Jacob and Caleb did a great job riding around in the strollers, but needed some time to stretch too! I love this picture of Nathan and Caleb.  He is such a great daddy and I love to see him with Caleb. Sam enjoyed a cigar at the park too.  (I joke!) The little babies ate some grass. Andrew found the cows and wanted to pet them. Sam, Andrew, Nathan and Hap found a great rock to jump off of.  Sam was fearless and surprised u...
