Sophie, suffering with curlers in her hair for that perfect school picture hair do!!! She was not happy to haver her picture taken.
Just sewed a new witch's costume for my goose! She came with me from Ohio down to Tennessee and now Indiana. 
Oh my goodness! I've totally ignored you for a loooong time; too long! I hate to say it, but we are functioning on not much margin these days. We're juggling football games, homework (Lots of it), swimming and for me sewing. That's right. My craft room which is fabulous is up and running and I'm sewing curtains. For some reason, our previous owner took all of her curtains. No big deal because I was going to replace them anyway, but now I feel more pressure to get them done sooner because I'm feeling a little exposed! Our living room has 4 long windows and I was so excited because I had always wanted to make a ruffled tier window treatment with various fabrics and now I was able to. They were just really time consuming!!! I'm really happy with how the curtains turned out. And, the kitchen curtains were something I could do in a day. They are just triangles sewn and then I hot glued magnets to each one to attach to the curtain rod- easy! Of course, in between sewing and everything else we planned a party for Jay's coworkers at work. I think there was 20 or so people in our house which we planned to have inside/outside with our fire pit, but the rain forced us inside. A good time was had by all - the men were in the basement at the pool table and the women were gathered in the kitchen. The kids were all over the place!
Christian and I completed a bike race. We had planned on biking the short course which was 15 miles, but we got a little confused by the markers and ended up doing the whole course .. 26 miles! yippee!! We had a great time and now we need to work on our time; we were too slow, but then we were riding bikes from Target. Christian's bike wouldn't get out of 2nd gear so it took 10 rotations to get 10 feet. He wore his legs out within the first 10 miles!
Oh, and this is for my Tennessee friends--> it's freezing up here!!! It's 45 degrees today; I had to turn my heat on. The living room was registering 67 degrees and I couldn't take it anymore so I had to put the heat on at 70. It's raining, too which makes it even worse. I don't think I'll leave my house all winter. Tonight's Christian's last football game and then next year he'll be playing high school football!!!
