Super Cute!!!!

I dont think my kids really know how spoiled they are especially since I got my new sewing machine but they are getting some pretty good stuff out of the deal! A friend of mine in my ward made super hero capes for her whole family for Halloween and I thought how fun is that and it's such a good idea, then I have seen them on a couple other blogs and they are just way fun. So she let me borrow a couple of her capes (which is nice because our kids are the same size) and I made capes for my kids. When I ran the race for the cure this last year they had these fun adult size super capes to fight breast cancer so I got 2 of them and gave them to my kids they really love them and have fun playing with them but they tie on and everytime they would come untied guess who had to tie them. So I am glad that the cute little ones I just made them have velcro for an easy on easy off for the kids and less work for me! I just love that they are personalized and fun colors for the kids! Marshall just couldn't wait for me to be done with the making of the capes he wanted it so bad! Now he runs around the house like a "Super Marshall" My kids couldn't be happier and I am just glad I have somewhat of a talent for sewing and can make fun stuff for my kids!

It's been a while I know!

Sorry it's been so long since I have posted anything, I was busy with finishing up my highschool education so I can graduate finally! It took me quite a little while but I am finally done and will graduate in June!! I'm so excited and relieved to finally be done! As most of you know we are almost ready to meet the newest blessing being added to our family/home any day or week now, we are all very excited! I will try to post more often!

My favorite little corner or the house, and my new toy!

So this is my new toy... my sewing machine! It is awesome and sews so well and so smooth I just LOVE it! It does tons of different stitches and it's amazing! I got it for Christmas and my birthday, it is truely the gift that keeps on giving. I was feeling a little guilty (because it costs so much) having that much money spent on me but then I got to thinking about who do I sew for? Everyone else! So I figured you know what it benefits everyone else so it's not so bad spending so much! I have found so much cute stuff to make lately I'm trying not to go broke and making things one at a time and as I have a little extra money so here are a few things I have made......... This is my new favorite corner or the house, it is in my bedroom because I wish my basement was finished I might have a little more room for things, but we are working on it!


Things I have made recently

Ok so I know I need to quit looking (and stealing) all the fun things I see on other peoples blogs but when I saw this I just had to make it for Marshall!! He just LOVES cars and is always running around making car noises acting like a racecar. We always have quite a few cars in the bottom of the church bag and usually a couple in each vehicle that he insists on bringing with him so when I saw this it was perfect! He can now bring 6 cars with him whenever he wants and it doesn't make such a mess...............LOVE IT!! I took this pic of him after I finished making it, he loved it!










A CTR towel I made for my nieces baptsim, I saw this on someones blog somewhere and thought it was such a cute easy idea to make... so I did! I saw these cute little baby doll diapers on another blog and had to make them for Jenika. She has always asked me to buy her babies diapers now I'm glad I found this so I can just make them and they are way cuter and wont get worn out so fast!

















It's on now!











I'm not sure if it's a good or bad thing but Marshall LOVES to go snowmobiling!! He asks me at least once a day if we can go snowmobiling. He is so addicted already! Jenika loves it also. It's a good thing we all like to go and like to go so often so they can enjoy what thier daddy loves with him!
