sunnier now
Thank you to those of you that left me comments. I am definitely feeling a bit sunnier now. It is nice to know you all have those moments too.
This weekend we :
collected acorns - It is certainly one of my proudest moments to see *both* my kids scooping up acorn tops into our bag to take home for crafts. Andy laughed out loud when he saw Cissie joining in before Floyd. My little 14-month old craft cutie. She takes after me in so many ways....especially that stubborn streak.
built a post office - Floyd's delighted, at last we made him a little post office out of cardboard boxes, complete with stamps, envelopes, parcels and a post box.
strolled on a beach and let the wind blow away the cobwebs.
cooked a yummy roast dinner including apple crumble with a very dear friend. (Can you tell we've been apple picking recently?)
didn't buy this fabric from the newly revamped Kitty Craft. Managed to hold off but not. sure. for. how. long.
thrifted this cute scale for the aforementioned post office (subsequently to be used for weighing dollies in the 'baby center', I think Cissie will love having a day washing, drying, dressing, weighing and feeding her dollies before putting them to bed).
won a competition. Can you believe it? So cool. Thank you for choosing me!
Hope your weekend was as sunny. If anyone would like some acorn caps I have two small bags going, just leave a comment. If for some reason they are a surprisingly big hit, names will go into a hat.
Happy Monday.
I am all stocked up on acorn caps now, but about a year ago, in the winter, I needed some and ended up buying them from a 6 year old named Davis on Etsy. I loved his entrepeneurial spirit. Can't wait to see what you make...
