Craft Weekend

I got to go to Craft Weekend this weekend and had a blast. It was so fun, rejuvenating, and exhausting all at the same time! I went as a helper, so I got to spend a lot of time in the kitchen with Kimberlee and Michelle. Kimberlee made us lots of yummy food. We had warm, out-of-the-oven, chocolate cake one night. There was only one piece for everyone. I almost went and whipped up another one, it was that good!

I really didn't get my camera out much. And since I don't have one of those fancy phones everyone is sporting these days, you will have to go on over to Meg's blog and check out all her pics from the weekend. And, for that matter, read all about what we did. Meg is a much more interesting writer than I, so I will let you take it from here!

we get a little messy when we are crafting...it's a sign of a good time!

An Easter Crafty Day

I saw a lot of people put their easter egg dye in glass cups this year. It looks pretty so I did it too!

Reading break!

Snow-day Crafting Expedition

The kids had snow days the last two days, so we got serious and got our craft on. We may or may not have gotten a little carried away with valentine's crafts and decorations! I've never decorated for valentine's before. It always seems to come and go, but I was in the mood this year to make it fun. And it definitely helps to be cooped up in your house for two days to get some of this stuff done! Enjoy our craft creations.

We made "stained glass" hearts. They were a little time consuming, but fun. Ava's favorite craft.

We worked on cute painted valentine's for the kids to take to school. I loved how these turned out. These were Maddox and Kade's favorites!

Made a fun ruffle heart.

We had a fun two days off from school. It was so nice to forget about everything and just spend time with the kids. We just crafted our little hearts out and had lots of good quality time together in the process. Oh, we made cookies too, but didn't have time to decorate them yet. We'll be doing that today after school!

And now today, laundry and bathrooms are calling my name. I'm thinking of changing my name...

Stay warm and enjoy your day!
