weekending

This weekend we::

BAKED...

and ate our Amish Friendship Bread....YUM!

STARTED...

this year's advent calendar (a post about this to come)

WATCHED...

the movie, The Dolphin: story of a dreamer.  It was clearly too scary for the kids.  I found them cuddled together on the back of the couch.

FINISHED...

these cute little birds.  They are to be given to a friend to be made into a mobile for her babe on the way.  Pattern here

GATHERED...

with friends to watch the Flamborough Santa Parade....it was SO much fun!

ADMIRED...

the heart and passion these two put into their dance moves with every musical float that passed by us

CHEERED

like crazy when Santa came by us on his VERY illuminated float.  Ava was so perplexed by the fact that Santa would not be leaving presents tonight.  "If he is already here why doesn't he just leave them NOW"  oh dear Ava...you have so much to learn about the way men organize and prioritize!

STITCHED...

this adorable custom baby set.  It includes Diaper Bum pants (with a panel sewn into the back to accommodate chunky diapers), co-ordinating bib and warm blanket ALL...

in this hand embroidered, monogrammed and re-useable fabric envelope!

It looks like we had a busy weekend but a lot of it was spent doing TONS of laundry, cleaning the kitchen a thousand times and eating way way too many PC chips (delish!)
