Last week I took a sewing workshop. It ended up being really basic and I didn’t get much out of it other than the urge to start a new project. I made this skirt a few days ago. It has a pencil type silhouette and a ruffle detail around part of the hem excluding the … Continue reading Busy Bee
I met up with some friends to celebrate Anna’s and Lorenz’s birthday. Ate at a new sushi place called Mikuni right next to Park Meadows mall. Not bad. Enjoyed the company more than the food. You can’t tell by the pictures I posted but we were with 20 plus other people. Continue reading Sushi
Met up with the extended family at church and decided to get a bite to eat. I forgot how much fun it was to roll so deep. We took up 3 tables.

Doesn’t take much to keep them entertained. Later that night my brother talked me into coming out with him. We met up with some … Continue reading Family and Friends
Haven’t been up to much these past few days. Here’s a picture of the girls. Ana is so entertained by her cousin and big sis (with the wonky smile again). I was supposed to go out tonight with my brother and some friends but my baby sitter (ie Aprille) is MIA. Guess that’s the way … Continue reading Nothing New
