progress.

i love the framing stage of building. everyday there's visible progress. these guys are cruisin'!

a little of everything.

 

easter was wonderful. conference was a beautiful addition. the handmade bunny was a hit, as was cousin zach. beautiful.

we braved the cold and went to the zoo yesterday. we saw the porcupine's face for the first time...it only took about 2 years! it was worth it!

and well. let's not forget that a house is still being built. amazingly fast, if i do say so myself.

this is the "honey bucket" onsite. if you know where that name came from, please educate me!?! did you know they are equipped with a telephone? can you say SANITIZER? fast.


we did venture to baby animals days today. it was crowded and windy.  made me excited to get my chickens!

rain, rain, go away..

rain and snow.. you're not helping. but, progress is still being made.

walls.

we have walls. a few anyway. no matter, this will be home.

spring sewing.

sewing is happening around here again. it is spring after all. this is an altered (sleeves and empire waist with slight gathering in front and back) oliver +s sailboat top pattern. (for better or worse) as it turns out.. better for my girl and her little figure..
...
i have lots of ideas swirling around in my cranium for summer patterns. that's what happens to me every year at this time. it's all part of the spring excitement! 

my sweet girl... ahh

coming along. day 17.

it's coming along.. and I like it!

day 11: march 18. 2010

oh yes, heated floors in the basement... oh la la

by the way.. did i mention how happy we are to be wearing sandals and short sleeves? it's swinging weather again in this valley and we're feeling happy!

and so it begins...

So, here we go again. It seems we did this not long ago.?. (huh, wonder why?) But this time we are actually excited about where we're moving to! Let's see how long this process will take.. hopefully faster than the 3 months it took me to design it.

goal: 4 months
