It's Good For The Soul...

Getting rid of lots of fabric I've been stashing away for too long. I hate to part with pretty things...it's not naturally in me to let things go when I still love them. Today I purposed to clean out my fabric loot and let others enjoy the excess of my purchasing.

My closet looks open again, ready to welcome new things to the shelves.....

Getting Older

Is it possible that one year ago Evelyn was only one day old? Wow, I can't believe my two youngest are 3 and 1....it seems surreal to me.

Fighting the flu all week and preparing very last minute, I did manage to get a few pictures of the actual party (which I have to report was so much fun and went super smoothly).

Thank you everyone who came to share and celebrate with us!

Father-Daughter Pictures

Our church had the most wonderful event this past weekend....A father-daughter dinner! Avery felt so special and loved getting to be fancy for her big date with daddy.

Although she looks way too grown-up, she looked beautiful and I want to share these pictures...

Another model on my hands

Since before Evelyn was born I have been sketching clothes for a layette line to infuse into my SFB business. Time was the real hang-up for me that caused the delay in launching this line.

Masyn recently ran into a wall and now sports a dark green shiner (for about a week now). This unfortunate injury forced me to use Evelyn for modeling (finally). So out came the baby clothes sketches and I'm pleased to share "PoppySeed." PoppySeed is the layette label of SFB.

Here is Evelyn in her first modeling shoot for me. Evy has modeled for a good friend from about 2 months old, but she is debuting on eBay for me this week.
