Thankful Thursday


1. Nieces
I'm the youngest so I didn't have any little sisters, but I have lots of nieces that I adore. Last weekend we were able to attend the baptism of my niece Brooklyn. She looked darling and was so cute and happy. Then later that night we had girls day at my sisters house and I got to spend the evening with some other awesome nieces! We ordered chinese food and made really cute bags. I have to say here too that I am so thankful for a mom and sister that sew. They were so nice to help everyone else with their bags and didn't even have time to make one of their own. It was such a fun evening.



My nephew decided to make a bag for his girlfriend (how CUTE is that?) and impressed us all with his sewing skills. He has a sad face here because his bag wasn't finished yet.

We even figured out how to add a pocket and that wasn't even in the pattern. Yes, I know...probably really easy for most people but this was quite a big deal for me!!
2. Great Nieces
I have a great niece now too! Although my kids just call her a cousin. That works! This is Cagney with Kalianna.

3. Sleeping in
My boys are off track so I have been able to sleep in this week until about 8:00! And even if I'm not sleeping it has been great to at least stay in bed longer. I love it.
4. No cavities
All five kids had dentist appointments yesterday. Five for five, no cavities! Phew!!
5. Open windows
I love this time of year when we can have the windows open and feel the breeze.

Your material for your bag is ADORABLE! Where did you find it?

CUTE bag! I want one. :) I totally just saw you at Sam's Club, but it took me a minute before I realized it was you. I noticed your cute green shirt, then when I turned around in the parking lot, I saw Cole as you were heading into the store, and I was like..."Oh, that was Bonnie!" A and T said "Who?" Hahaha.... Hope you had a nice shopping experience. :)

I too LOVE the colors of your bag. I dread the dentist; I'll hope for as good of luck as you had.

Ok I'm stealing your picture of the completed project! ;)

I love having my windows open right now too! My favorite is THIS weather!

There is really nothing better than a good craft with the sisters! Good for you!
