Evan's field trip to the Science Center


Evan's favorite part of the whole museum-making himself be in a bubble

Belle of Louisville

To celebrate Derby, Evan's class is having different activities throughout the week. Today was the Run for the Rose' (a relay with kool-aid), tomorrow is the Stick Horse race, and Thursday is a parade down the hallway. The students made their stick horses in school, but making a "float" for the parade was an at-home project. The float had to be made out of a rectangle box and have a derby theme. Evan and I had a lot of fun making our float. We chose to make a Belle of Louisville float. Here is our creation...





Evan cut out faces of people "looking at him"-so they'd be looking out the windows. You can click the pictures to make them bigger so you can see the faces.


I can't wait to go to his school Thursday and see him carry it down the hallway during the parade!

Showing Off

I've been working hard making lots of adorable bows lately! Since my website isn't up and running yet, I am gonna use my blog to show off some of my hard work. I will apologize in advance for the quality of the pictures! I'm good at making bows, not so good (yet) at taking pictures of them.


Here are some of my favorites...
Butterfly

BumbleBee
Lady Bug
I actually made this one to go with an outfit I'm selling at the clothing sale, but loved it so much I decided to keep it for Gracie. I made a smaller version (looks the same though) to go with the outfit.
This is my new favorite. I just made it tonight. I wish the colors would show up better. It is neon orange, neon green, and hot pink. Super duper cute!!!

Our lives since last post...

So, I've been busy...and lazy about updating the blog, but mainly just too busy!

Here are some pics of what we've been up to since last time I posted.
We've been to the zoo, twice for me and Gracie, twice for Nick and Evan.

Louisville Slugger Museum

Last Saturday we took a field trip to the Louisville Slugger Museum with my mom, grandparents, and cousins that were visiting from California. After the museum, we all went to eat at King Fish on the River. It was a fun and relaxing day. Here are some of our pics.
