I feel like i have reached some silly milestone that means absolutely nothing and has taken a really long time to get to ;) All really because of one post, the only one that ever gets any hits... my tea dresses and panda pancakes post... this gets like 10 hits a day !?!

I maxed out my memory card in the camera, not because i take so many pictures... because i am lazy! Its been a long long while since i last downloaded pictures. So long, in fact that as they were flashing through downloading, i was like "oh yeah i remember that" HAHA aaaaaaaaand it took 45 minutes just to download -_-

So this is what has been going on in life:

We are still vegan... I don't know why people ask this so much, i hear "so are yall still vegan" ALL THE TIME the simple answer is "why yes, we are" the not so simple answer is "why yes, we are still vegan" Here is one of the more complicated but ever so scrumptious meals Seitan Picata!! 

Here is a blanket i made for a church Friend. I have this Book By M'liss Ray Hawley, 

Fast, Fat Quarter Baby Quilts  That I love love love!!! The patterns can sometimes be manipulated to a more Elinore Burns method of piecing, so i didnt follow the pattern to a tea but still love the concept and the book!! AND she has Dachshunds and i have a Dachshund (The Marvinator) so its like we are best friends!

I could not get over this shark fabric... the quilt was for a baby boy, and i was going to do something a little more babyish, but its SHARKS for crying out loud!!! So i also quilted it with sharks on the border in Glow-In the dark thread!

Then before we went home i had this great idea to make a portable flannel board... it turned out so well that i made one for Rivers Bestie, Gracie, and got a classic story book to go with it... i also made story specific felties to go with it!!

This was one of the more difficult projects i have made and let me tell you it turned out exactly how i wanted!!! I love the embroidery on the front!!! (Thanks mom for my sewing/embroidery machine)

Then we went home. Andy had some training to do in Houston so we Packed the whole crew and headed south for the... summer hehe (really only three weeks)

After arriving back at our loverly little town---River had a Birthday, shout hurray!!

I asked her, do you want to have a yoga birthday party with all your friends invited, or do you want to go to kings dominion... and what do you want for your present?

She chose Kings Dominion, and A barbie doll!!! So we Got season passes to KD and had a "funnel cake supreme" for her birthday cake. And on the morning of her birthday she got to open her gifts, a fashionista barbie and some barbie outfits

Mommy tends to over wrap presents... after KD tickets wrapping paper and presents and funnel cake, Cheapest birthday party yet!! ANND easiest, no set up no clean up no cooking just pure fun!!

The blanket I made for our friends new little girl. Also From M'liss Rae Hawley

I quilted Dragonflies All over it!!  Twas my favorite Quilt yet aren't those colors AMAZING!!!

For girls Camp i Made 27 little stamps ready to carve in their own little felt pouches. This so that the young women can carve them in there spare time, before they go find the letterboxes that me and a YCL carved and hid. I'll have to make another post for all that!!

a picture of my most recent human creation... with his co-creator sleeping behind him ;)

Both of my boys are getting so big... Baby B loves his little brother TOO MUCH its a battle to keep him off of him!

And our downstairs bathroom! this is our latest and greatest project keeping dear husband, shall we say,"entertained" throughout the better part of his day... being as he is unemployed and all, hehe. He calls me a slave driver; a name that i wear with pride!!
