Last weekend Jason decided to take us on an "adventure". Yeap you know
what that means. Only this time it wasn't bad at all. He took us up to
a hot spring outside of Carry that was really nice. Hot
springs can be questionable sometimes if you know what I mean.... This
one was not too bad. We swam around for a bit and then he took us to some
old dam and we roasted hot dogs and marshmallows.

Once again I suck and I forgot my camera. Jason decided to take these pictures with his phone. The kids went for a little walk after dinner, there were cows all over the place. Truman came back and said "We found Moose tracks all over down there". It just had to be a moose, it couldn't possibly be anything else.
Next day was mother's day and what an awesome day it was. I got spoiled rotten. The kids made all sorts of fun stuff for me and Jason made sure that I didn't have to lift a finger. I also got this little beauty.
Jason says the kids bought it, but I'm not so sure. The other one I have is actually my aunts, and it is kind of old. I was worried that I'm not a good enough sewer to have a machine like this. Turns out this thing is awesome!!!!!!!!!!!! I love sewing like ten million times better now. I sewed a skirt, and a slip, and this apron.
I really like it. I got the pattern for free from this site. I love it when people let you use their stuff!
Yesterday I told Elleree to clean her room. I told her that after I was done eating breakfast I would come and help her. So when I was done I go down the hall, and I see this.
Now he was already out of bed that morning. So I say to him, "how did you get back in there". Elleree comes in and says "he was being a bad boy, so I put him in there". Well there you go. Don't even ask me how she got him in there I don't want to know!
Last year I made a kind of wind chime thing with the boys soccer, football, basketball and wrestling medals. Unfortunately......... it didn't work very well, it was always getting tangled up. I decided to try something just a little different with them.
I made a mobile instead. It chimes a little bit, it was kind of difficult getting all the things to balance, but I like things like that. Hopefully it will work a little better. Who knows.

Hey! Did you know that aprons are a total sewing fetish of both me and crazy lady? We make them for work all the time. I have SOOO much "it will be an apron" fabric it isn't funny. Crazy makes a bunch of different patterns. Because of my whaleness I stick with the grandma hall apron that has no ties. Anyway..Yours is super cute.
I love that in both pictures of the adventure food roast Miss E has her head on your shoulder. Must have been very traumatic. (:
That sewing machine has stitches for every day of the year! Can't wait to see what you make with them all.
Hope to see you sooooooon.

Like the way you say "It wasn't bad at all" That's too funny. Looks like it WAS a fun trip. Always an adventure with Jason. Those kids really know how to maximize their money--what an awesome sewing machine! I'm sure you will be sewing up a storm. Love the new mobile. Very cleaver
