We are in the final days before winter vacation is over. We took it easy this morning and I'm happy to announce that most of us were awake before 10am. The dark skies outside play havoc with your circadian rhythms. Its hard to tell daytime from night time. I am researching a dawn simulator for next year. It brightens your room in increments to help you wake up.
After our pancake breakfast, we did a quick Bible study. Its nice to have a family Bible study. There are several churches in Barrow to chose from and we attend them at times, but we enjoy being together as a family.
The fun didn't stop there! We decided to make several things from
This book is amazing! I am so glad that I grabbed this during our afternoon doing crafts at Tuzzy. There are so many different recipes to make. We had several ideas and plans, but we decided to make churros, toffee bars and old fashioned cheese cake. I am putting this book on my Amazon wish list to buy it soon.
While the girls were in the kitchen having a blast, I started my newest project, making Georgia new pajamas. The urge just hit me to make that child a pillowcase pj dress. I bought the material at the fur shop and some trim. I didn't like the idea of tying the straps or having long strands of ribbon by her neck while she was sleeping. I decided to put lace around the top and make lace straps. The shop didn't have elastic lace, but I love the lace I bought. It was perfect! Georgia really wanted the Little Pet Shoppe fabric. I had enough fabric left to make Georgia's doll a dress and Georgia got a headband out of it too!
Abi requested a pj dress after seeing Georgia's dress. I'm going to help Emily make her own pj pants.
I might be emailing family members back home to find out prices of material back home. Material selection is limited and can get expensive.
Today was a fun day for a Sunday. I feel blessed to have the ability to cook with my children, sew for my children and study the Bible with my family.
