It’s no secret to those who know me that Halloween is my favorite holiday of the year. I began planning & scheming months in advance for the festivities. I thought it would be nice to share a sample Halloween Music playlist. 1. Baby did a Bad, Bad Thing – Chris Isaak 2. Bad Moon Rising – CCR 3. Strangers in […]
Rubygail Alisa Coulter was born September 29, 2006 at 2:23pm. She weighed 8 lbs 4oz. and was 22 inches long! She’s gorgeous and obviously brilliant (she must get both those traits from those fabulous parents of hers-my cousin & her husband!) Welcome baby!

It’s heading straight for me! How exciting! Let’s hope it stays a baby & there’s no major damage or anything.
It’s been entirely too long since I’ve posted something I made. It’s mainly b/c I keep forgetting to take pictures of things before I give them away. Anyway, I embroidered these onesies for my cousin’s baby-coming-in-September using some of Jenny Hart’s patterns. I can’t believe my cousin’s going to be a mom, but I know she will be an awesome, […]
