Happy Happy Joy Joy


Father's day was wonderful. The kids and I let Daddy sleep all day witch if you know our family you would know that Daddy is the one always up early. He's been working so hard lately I'm sure it was a well deserved rest. We all went out to dinner at a little spot we found that's not to far from our house call Smitty's. It's a little Mom and Pop diner that serves BBQ. Here is a picture of the kids with Daddy.



If you don't know by now, I bought a sewing machine. A Brother's and it's all computerized and fancy. My first project is a skirt for work. I started the skirt on Sunday and I'm slowly working on it. I'm moving slow because I have never used a sewing machine before so I'm reading the manual and the instructions on the pattern both at the same time. I'm excited to say so far it's going well. The only thing was after I put the pieces together and tried it I realized I had to add another piece cause it would have been a little tight on the hips. So today I hope to work on the waist and the zipper. I want to be finished by Friday but we will see how that goes. If all goes well then my next project will be a dress for Niah. She wants a maxi dress that goes down to her ankle. Maybe I should just try a skirt for her first. Anyways here is a sneak peak at my skirt.
