Morgan

Just a quick peek at a photo of my cute niece, Morgan. This was not a planned photoshoot...we were just hanging out at a family BBQ. Isn't she a doll? I'm sad we live so far away!!!

My Sister!

Do you have one of those sisters that you could just talk to on the phone for hours! You never run out of anything to say and they just make you happy? Well, I do and while I was visiting family for the 4th I was able to do a quick photoshoot of my sister Emily! Whenever I'm around her I'm bound to have a good time and I'm sure to be laughing! Emily was so much fun to photograph! Between all of the silliness I think we got some really nice shots! She is one fantastic sister and an amazing aunt...my girls just adore her! This shot was the very first one and we were about ready to wrap it up and go home! What a great model to only need one shot! She was literally sitting in a pile of garbage on the side of the road! Not all of your locations need to be a big beautiful place....a few feet is all it takes for a close up!

Happy 4th of July!!!

I hope you all had a great 4th of July! We really enjoyed celebrating it with my family in Utah. I made the girls some special 4th of July outfits for church. The shirt on Miranda is a little big because it was one I had made for Bri as a little girl...and to be honest I didn't feel like making another one! So, pardon that it's falling off of her shoulders in some of the pictures and that Bri's skirt is on sideways!
And this one is a little over exposed, but I just thought the girls looked silly!

Repurpose: My old shirt to a toddler shirt

It's been awhile since I've shared a sewing post. I have a bunch of old button up shirts that I have been meaning to make into clothes for my girls. Here's the first shirt I made:
I made it from this old shirt. Bri wanted a matching hair clip so I looked at some of the frayed rosette tutorials and combined a few ideas. Best tip I found was using a pipe cleaner to wrap the fabric around, it makes it so much easier! I also had an old knit shirt that doesn't really fit anymore. However, I loved the print so I just altered it into a dress for Bri. She has worn it 2 days in a row and is sad that it now needs to be washed! I'll be making some more of these for summer!!
I also have a few other things I'm "repurposing" to share. I'll try to make a tutorial for some of them!

Home Sweet Home

We're finally back after more than a week of vacation! We had so much fun, but are loving being home in our own place, with our own things, on our own schedule!!!
More to come once we get settled!
