happy things

I really do try to reserve this blog to the happenings of our children, as a sort of baby book, but every once in awhile something comes up that I can't help blogging about.
I recently checked Sew Pretty Homestyle out from the library, which is full of easy, one day type of sewing projects. (Both of these are requirements for me! :) Each spring, shopping for or making a new purse is probably on my top 10 favorite things to do. I happened to be really spoiled this week because my mother-in-law just brought me two new pretty totes that she had picked up recently, and yesterday, I had time to sew a new spring bag. If you're in the mood for something new and fresh, pick up this sweet book and try one of her projects.
On another happy note, as my blog header photo, (by Havalah), depicts, we are leaving tomorrow for sunny skies. I'll post some photos when we get back!
