I’VE BEEN INTERRUPTED

I had to stop my remodeling lunacy to do some sewing.

Sewing used to be my lunacy. I sewed everything for my kids except for their socks and shoes. I made matching Christmas jammies…

Every year…

Even for visitors…

It was total lunacy. Just ask my husband.

I always made them matching outfits…

I even made my twins matching outfits for their 10th birthday.

Poor kids!

Anyway, My sweet granddaughter, Brooklyn is turning 8 and that is a very important time in the LDS (Mormon) church. That is when we baptize our kids. We also bless or christen  our babies.

My husband will be home from Iraq in a few weeks so will have a special family day and baptize Brooklyn and bless London.

I’ve made most of my grandkids’ blessing and baptism outfits so the tradition must carry on…

We had a fun photo session last night…

Then we had some fun.

We pulled out my jewelry box…

We couldn’t get London to look at us for anything. She was so engrossed in all the pretties…

Then came Great-Grandpa’s (my dad’s) hat. When Brooklyn was little I got some really cute shots of her one day playing with it…
