Curtains

I finally got the first Roman Shade done. It's only taken me a whole month. Now I can get on to making the other two. It was fun to make and I look forward to when I have all three hung. The most exciting part is that during dinner, the sun will not be in our eyes anymore. This window is at the perfect angle for the setting sun to blind us during dinner. You can see the ugly lace curtains on the other windows. I'm excited to get rid of those things after living here for almost 4 years.

All the way up:




Half way up

All the way down. I don't think I'll keep them like this very often, only when I need to block the sun for dinner.

Easter Wreath




Brant and I made this wreath this morning. I saw the idea on another blog. Mine turned out way different than hers, but that's OK.

Jay Birthday Cake


This cake was so easy! I used an overhead transparancy to decorate George. I then froze the frosting and when it was completely frozen, I turned it onto the cake and pulled off the transparancy!

Callie's Quilt







Callie has been wanting to tie a quilt ever since she got to do ten ties on a quilt at Cub Scout Pack Meeting a few months ago. So we got her some flannel and on Civil Rights Day, we put it on in our play room and she tied and tied and it only took her that day and a couple of other days after school for a bit. It turned out so cute, and she loves sleeping with it.
