Maddie's Quilt

Maddie has been helping me with her room.
She did most of this quilt on her new sewing machine.
She picked all the colors and she helped design it.
It's been fun teaching her how to sew.
This picture shows her quilt and her matching curtains.
A blue wall is coming soon.
Busy but fun for an 8 year old.

Lots of Hearts

Yesterday was Valentines day. 
All the girls had hearts in their hair.
They also enjoyed finding hearts around the house.
We call these hearts our "little loves".
Everyone gets to find hearts during the day.
They remind the person how much I love them.


Emmie's hair was destroyed before I could get a picture.
It was two pigtail hearts with ribbon braided through it.
My girls love to have their hair fixed in cool ways.

Pinterest Projects

Our new house needed new things - so I've been busy.
Thanks to Pinterest I found some great ideas.
We got the kids on track with "Habit Helpers"(AKA chore charts)
I also found a cute idea for a growth board.
Why I never thought of this I don't know.


When we lived in Ephraim the girls loved to get measured on the wall. My plan was to transfer all the marks when we moved but I forgot to do it. When I remembered a week later it was too late. Now that will never happen again.
