Happy St. Patricks Day!

What a fun day we had! Aside from missing Ms. Thang (at her dads) it was a great day.We were invited to lunch at my Mother-in-laws house and I decided to go all out with the green. I went to Hobby Lobby yesterday and picked up some supplies.


2 green shirts
1 green bandana
I also used some iron on letters I got at a garage sale (seriously best place to get those) and some ribbon I had on hand.

45 minutes later I had these:

Not too bad! I know there are better ways to do the tie shirt and ruffles, which include scary things like fuse-able web and elastic thread, but I just went for it and thought they turned out pretty cute.

The kids looked super festive as we headed out the door and we were greeted by a little poodle (no tags) sitting there as if it knew we were about to walk out. I actually had to crop it out of this picture because it kept jumping up on their laps. This isn't the best pic, but the only one I took that shows the front of their shirts.


Ok, now Im feeling super guilty about the dog. It was lost and I was mad at the thing for getting in my pictures and distracting the kids. Here he is...

Ok I feel a little better. I hope he found his way home...

On to cuter things. Forced hug photos!




Lunch was so good we stayed over through dinner. I also made a fantastic trade with the sweetest gal. (If you're reading HELLO! )We swapped dressers. She made a post on a mommy board about wanting to trade a long 6 drawer dresser for a taller one and I had what she needed and wanted what she had. I'm thinking of doing a little makeover on it so I'll post more about it then. Hopefully soon, but if you know me, when I say soon I mean weeks or months. Still working on that other quilt.....

Happy St. Patricks Day!
