Summer Dress

I bought this fabric at Hobby Lobby sometime last summer, and I wasn't sure what I'd use it for.
When I came across this dress with tutorial, I immediately thought of this fabric.
I didn't include the tie on the top part of dress; Emma tends to like her dresses simple.
{And it made it so I didn't have to make button holes!}





Matching barrette

This was my first time making three separate casings for 1/4" elastic.
It was surprisingly easy!

Mother's Day Weekend

Mom came over on Saturday, and we ran around a bit.
Just around the corner from our house is an awesome greenhouse.
We spent a bit of time there.  I could have taken a seat under the tree and stayed awhile
it was so beautiful!



Here's Mom picking out tomatoes for their garden...

...and me keeping an eye on the cart.

For Mother's Day, I got lots of wonderful cards from Bob, the kids, and my parents.

{Just between us, I love all of them, but my favorites are the handmade ones.}



I was supposed to visit Emma's classroom on Friday for a Mother's Day Tea.
Sadly, her stomach was still in turmoil, so both of us stayed home on Friday.
They made all kinds of sweet things for the moms....




My sweet little ones.
