WIP- second in a row!

Well! This is the second Wednesday in a row that I've been able to post! Thanks to a little help from my friend(got the Beatles song in my head now), I finally got the time to finish Ella's pillowcase dress. Just in time for the warm weather!

 She really loved it


I love the ribbon she picked for the ties, so sweet :)

I also finished Molly Doll's scarf this week, but I think I'm going to save it and give it to Ella next winter. I'll put her scarf away too (it got too warm for her to need it as soon as it was done!) and bring them out together next year. Maybe for Martinmas.


I think they will look very stylish


This morning we also went outside to look at some little ferns popping up in our front yard.

  She called them "baby ones"


  She was very gentle.
She asked me where their mommy was and I told her the earth is their mommy. I love spring! Now we are off to the farm, and I'm going to bring my camera today. Maybe I'll have more pictures to post later!

Long time no post

I have been SO busy lately! I don't even have time right now to write a full update, so I'm just going to do a quick photo time line, starting with the earlier stuff first.

We were getting ready to go out to "Frolic" (a dance in our area) and Ella fell asleep on the counter!



 Another Tiger day! My good friend Katie as Q. T. Pie the clown at the Pizza Barn



 For March I knit another scarf, this one for Ella. She likes it as a skirt...
I keep meaning to make a little one for Molly Doll


Our wine club


 February/March wine was Cabernet



 One of the first warm days of the season


 She got right in the water!


 It was a beautiful place for a picnic



 We made candles one day



Yesterday was Easter


 Ella found Eggs and her basket


 She looked very cool in the car...


 Here she is hopping into a "mest"(nest) like the Easter bunny


Well there is my life summed up since I last posted. Gosh I'm a lucky lady!
