The Cabbage Patch

Last

Pumpkin was fussing that she didn't want to be last for photos.  It was a moot at this point since she was the last one I was taking photos of.  It took a bit but we were finally able to take a better picture.

Honey Comments

Honey after being told Pumpkin's wounds were worse than hers:

"I was wounded saving my country!!!  And, now you're saying Pumpkin's injured worse than me?  And give her all the GLORY?!?!"

Then this morning when I mentioned how I was going to post this on my blog, she said, "Do you want me to repeat it for you?  I like people laughing at me.  I like being famous!  Let me know when people comment."

Where does she get this stuff?

Honey Cuteness

Honey was making a list of things she thought to draw for a card for the gift exchange at the homeschool group's Epiphany party this Friday.  Here's the list with the items she decided not to draw crossed off.  Number 11 cracks me up.

1.    angel?
2.    a manger sene?
3.    a christmas tree?
4.    santa's workshop?
5.    santa's sleigh?
6.    christmas present?
7.    raindeer stable?
8.    house with snow on roof with santa?
9.    candle?
10.  plate of cookies and milk?
11.  stocking hung by the chimny with care?
12.  nutcracker?
13.  elf?
14.  snowman?
15.  ornament? 

All spelling errors are Honey's.  

It's also funny that a "raindeer stable" was considered easier than, say, a candle.

What's Been Keeping Me Busy

The mom skirt and blouse.

The nanny skirt and apron.

Fifteen pantaloons for the party girls (I had help on these and probably did only 60% of the work).

Spanish Chocolate bodice.

Dewdrop bodice and overskirt.

Shuttling my Francesca and Bunny to and from.

 

Another Birthday on the Road

We celebrated on the road last year.  Once again, we're celebrating while traveling.

Happy birthday to my sweet Honey.  You are such a fascinating little girl. 

 

 
 
  

Happy Easter!

Luckily, Easter is a season lasting 50 days.  I'm busily cleaning and organizing (or shoving into every available hidden space) in preparation for houseguests who should arrive in, ack!, one hour.

I'm leaving you with our early morning Easter pictures.

 

Gotta have some silliness.  It was, after all, before 7am.

Big Cuts, First Cuts

More hair for Locks of Love: 

Don't they look cute?  It was Honey's first haircut ever.  I am so saddened they cut their hair proud of them for donating their hair. 

Sleeping Beauty

Doesn't she look peaceful?  You would never suspect she was sleeping like this:
