More Owl Hats!

I made another owl hat recently for a little girl.  Her aunt emailed me and asked if I would make her one.  The little girl's mom doesn't want her to be girly, so her aunt chose these colors.  I wasn't sure if I liked the green and the robin's egg blue together, but the purple definitely added some spice to it!  I really like how it turned out! 

And then I wanted to share a picture of me and another little girl I made an owl hat for! 

Here is another one of just her.  Cute right?!?!

That's all for today.  We are going to be very busy next week with one of the highlights of our year: our annual Bible Conference at church, so I won't be posting for a few days! :)

Fun Friday

Today I wanted to share something that my Aunt, Uncle, and their family gave me!  This necklace goes perfectly with the theme and title of my blog!  Such a thoughtful gift.  Isn't it pretty?!?!

I have really enjoyed having this!  Thank you so much Babetz family! 

It is a rainy and cold day here in Florida.  Blah.  I love the cold, just not the rain. :(

Ester Ried

I am in the middle of reading one of the best books I've ever read.  It is called Ester Ried.  For now I just wanted to post a picture of it, and ask you what some of your favortie books are.  You can leave a comment below and tell me!  I will post more about this book once I finish it!

 

Come back tomorrow and I will be posting a Fun Friday! :) 

 

If you live in Florida I hope you are enjoying the cooler weather, now that January is half over.

Catching Up

I know it has been a very long time since I have updated my blog.  We have been very busy over the last two months.  So, here is a little of what we've been doing!

Over Thanksgiving break we went to St. Augustine with my grandparents and my dad's aunt.  We had a lot of fun.  One fun thing we did was we went to the old Spanish fort.  Below is a picture of the inside of it.



 

 

Here is a picture of my brother, my dad's aunt, and me. 

 



My dad's aunt took a family picture of us.  I really like this one. 

I've also been busy with my crocheting.  I made owl hats...one is pictured below.

Then we had a baby shower at our church for a lady who is expecting.  I made her a basket of balls.  2 of every color so that the baby can sort them by colors and he/she can also use them to count.  Below is a picture of them ( definitely not the best picture ever, but I guess it will do!)

Then my grandma had a baby shower at her church, so I made her a little bonnet.  I absolutely LOVED making this bonnet and will most definitely be making it again.  I got the pattern here.  I added the scalloped edge to make it a little more frilly. 

I really like the back of it.  I think it is very sweet as is the whole bonnet!  :)

Another thing we did was we went to South Caroline for 8 days.  It was great to see all the family.  My grandparent live there and also my uncle, aunt, and 5 cousins!  Here is a picture of half of the group!  We went to Don Pablo's one night for dinner when the older boys, my dad, and my grandpa went to a hockey game!

I've also made some flower hair clips.  They are so cute and easy to make.

A really great friend of ours had a birthday in December.  So, my Mom and I made her a cross stitched wall hanging with the name of her Etsy shop embroidered on it.  I made a little owl to hang from the bottom of it.  This lady loves owls!

Here are the pictures.

My Mom made this part of it and I made the owl.

I have also been reading my Bible every day.  The Bible truly is the best book you can ever read.  I am reading my Bible this year with a schedule. 

I have also been learning verses on the catgory of "All Have Sinned".  Such great verses! 

Well, there is a little catch up for you all!  I will definitely be posting more often now!
