Sewing Spring Dresses

Yesterday the girls and I dug out patterns and fabric for new spring dresses. We all helped cut out the pattern and fabrics, and today while it snows, we are going to sew them together....seemed like we thought we would wear them out to dinner tonight, but now it looks like we won't be going anywhere! Ahhh the weather in Northen California. 

Spring??

We  made beautiful sugar cookies with the best icing recipe and sprinkles too! Boy, I always forget that sugar cookies are an all day long ordeal, but so worth it in the end. It's always amazing to see the kids personalities come out in the decorating process.

Early signs of spring.

I love seeing the crocuses bloom each spring. They are so dainty, and
fairy-like. They are only here so briefly, and seem to be saying
don't worry about the winter, he will be leaving soon and spring in
all her beauty will be arriving!
I can't wait. Our 6 year old has decided to celebrate spring with a
Fairy tea party... we can't wait to tell you more about it soon!
