Warning: Lots of pictures

I had hoped to plant our vegetable garden this past saturday, but...
we woke up to snow on the ground.
It was not a pleasant sight. 
Hopefully it will be decent weather this coming Saturday.
 
So instead of working, we relaxed all weekend long. And it's sure been nice.
I also had a really nice visit to BC to see my newest niece. It was nice to see the family out there again!

I made the playmat as a baby gift, and my sister asked me to make her the diaper bag. 
I'm not sure what happened, but I don't seem to have any better pictures of it.
So, this will have to do.

I just noticed this past week that I had hardly any nice pictures of Kaelynn. Almost every I have, her hair is everywhere, or she's got a dirty face, or she's pulling some strange face. So I took a few of her and Ethan a few days ago.
 
 This one is my favorite. It makes me smile everytime I look at it. :)

I got flowers!

I got some beautiful flowers from Madison today. Unfortunately, they were stinkweed. They were only inside the house for a few minutes but they sure stank it up. 


I feel like I've been sewing like crazy the last few weeks, but I can't show a whole lot, because there's not a lot of things I actually finished.
I made a gathered clutch that I really love. I got the tutorial for it from Noodlehead


I also made a camera strap cover a few days ago, and found out my math skills are just a little off. I can get it it on but just barely. I think I'm going to make another one that fits a little better. But I did really like the fabric I used for this one and I don't have any left. :(


Other than that, I'm looking forward to heading out to BC to see my new niece.  I'm only taking N along, so I will hopefully have a few quiet days. I think I need it after Byron being gone so much lately. ;)

(Nadiya's new trick. She's quite proud of it.)
