Finally buckled down and finished the Joy Romper pattern! If you have a keen eye you likely have seen this in my feed on the girls over the past year and a half 😂 but it’s done and in the shop now #shwindesigns #joyromper

I flew home without kids for the first time in 13 years. Guys it’s kind of life changing. I mean the nieces and nephews are all super bummed because clearly my kids are cooler than me, but I bought them toys and took them swimming and they seem to be coming around. I have also been doing all the things with my mom including being her stand in on a double date tonight. We went to see Aladdin and I loved it just as much the second time.

Happy Birthday to my sweet little nephew, today is his 1st birthday. The quilt was done before his 1st birthday so I am still going to call it a baby quilt. The pattern will be coming eventually, hopefully before he turns 2 😂😂

Although the marble days are slowing down nothing makes me happier than when we make a sweet track. Today she sent her cousin a challenge to make an even taller track. Ours came in at 6’3”. Good luck @hansola67 and @ajwhanson #marblerunalldayeveryday

I have been dying to finish up some clothing patterns and sewing that I put on pause for the holidays but, everyone is having babies (or had babies) so I am whipping out some new quilts instead. Sometimes quilts are made from a cute stack of coordinating prints and colors and you just know it will be good. And sometimes you have 19 cuts of fabric in the most random colors and you just pray it works out. I usually fall into the latter category. 😂

Finished up our trip with the kids playing games until the wee hours of the night, the longest brunch in history, and then running around in the great outdoors. Scroll through for a video of why our kids are embarrassed of us 90% of the time but shouldn’t be 😂 thanks for the capture @mylittlemarvels

Our now annual trip after Christmas to meet up with cousins is becoming a favorite. Love seeing all these kids together. Swimming, playing games, black light mini golf, hiking, hitting the gym, drinking hot cocoa, and epic hide n seek in the hotel.

My favorite Christmas Eve tradition is the family photo booth. Although the kids talent show is getting better and better each year. Sadly Jude (who *just* got over influenza caught a stomach bug and was sick most of the day. Thankfully we still had some masks left over so he didn’t miss out on all the festivities. Now everyone is all cozy snuggled up in their fresh matching Christmas Eve pajamas and watching Home Alone. Another great Christmas Eve in the books.

It’s that rare time of year I tell everyone not to change as they race in the house after church. We should probably take more family photos it took us awhile to place everyone since they are all getting so tall. Finished up the girl’s dresses last night and that means I am officially done and ready for Christmas. Time to hunker down and do a million things and nothing at the same time 😂

I can’t believe my baby is SEVEN! This girl is the funniest person I know. She has more wit and personality than most. Everyday with her is an adventure. She is pure fire most of the time and honestly as hard as that can be sometimes I wouldn’t want it any other way. When she does something she gives it 100% she is dedicated and loyal. I have never met a child who can entertain herself as well as this one can. We just love her so much. Happy birthday little spitfire!

These two had their piano recital tonight and played beautifully. I hope I am not the only parent who tears up when her kids play the piano.

These two girls are so ready to perform with the @utahmetropolitanballet in the nutcracker. They have been working so hard and practicing constantly I can’t wait to watch them do what they love.

My girls have been begging to go to Frozen 2 but with our schedule lately it’s just been hard to find a time to go. So we did the only thing one should do in that situation and we skipped school to go to the movies.

In the winter if you sit in this room there is a moment in the morning (usually right before the kids go out the door to school) when the light first beams in around the corner. It adds a rainbow like glow to the room and makes it feel like magic. Which says a lot since I am not a morning person and I would still rather be here in this room at that moment than in bed... well maybe... I mean bed is pretty nice too.

Hey look I made something for the boy! He used to be my main muse, then he decided to grow up and have opinions 😂 still though he always appreciates a mom made item and that makes this mom pretty happy. (Free embroidery pattern on the blog if you are into that kind of thing)
