A Morales Minute

I felt like doing something crafty today... So I made Olivia a skirt! I had some scraps of this cute fabric...what to do. I still wanted to create! I made a fabric flower. I like the frayed edges.  Then I made another for the skirt I even made a flower and glued a barrette to it for her hair! Fun, fun!

All she wanted on her cake was a husky...UW husky...Storm (her uncle Marcus' dog). I think my girls bleed purple. They both wanted a UW cake for their bdays and compromised with Olivia getting the husky and Lindsey wants just a W on hers. Nice and easy! :) Jaime was accepted to UW but decided on another university instead. You'd think these girls come from a long line of alumni! Doll clothes Doll clothes Lego Friends Play food/bakeware  Lego Friends And more Lego Friends! We had extended family over on Saturday to celebrate. Thanks to all who came! Olivia loved it.

On Saturday February 16, 2013 Bel married her best friend, Chris Digges. They had a small wedding but it was so beautiful. Chris's mom did all the flowers/decorations. She did a great job. She made flowers for almost everyone there.  Chris's brother, Charlie, has 4 kids and Bel's brother (Jaime) has 4 kids so they pretty much made up the wedding party. It was fun to see the little ones walking down the aisle.  These cuties were in the wedding "party" and walked down the aisle. Well the oldest 3. Here are niece Elizabeth and nephew Aidan    Aidan took Elizabeth's hand all on his own. No one told him to. So sweet.   Bel and Chris Digges  I did the girls hair myself! Are you impressed? I am.  Tyler slept in the car from Hermiston to Tri-cities on our way to the dinner. Dinner Chris's sister made cute favor boxes with jelly beans for everyone.

Dear Olivia, I can't believe seven years have gone by! I still remember my chubby dimpled sweetheart. The baby who saved some of her best smiles for Grandpa Naylor. Olivia, even though you have grown so much you're still a little girl and you love little girl things still. I love that about you. You're not in any hurry to grow up. That's great! Keep enjoying childhood and make believe the way you do. You love to play with toys whether it be Barbies, princesses, Monster High, house, restaurant, safari, explorers or whatever else your imagination comes up with.  Your ultimate, most favorite thing in the world is STUFFED ANIMALS! You can't seem to get enough of them. You always want more. Whenever I see a cute stuffed animal I think of you and how you would love it if I bought it for you. More often than not I think how there are too many in our house and I don't buy very many. :) It must be because you love to cuddle.  Your bed is half stuffing because you
