Sleeping With the Enemy

Soooo this is a first.

Normally, Lyla steers way clear of Hobbes because he’s always jumping on her and knocking her over–you know–all the tough guy stuff. He’s too much of a wild boy for her prissy nature and…well, she’s just plain scared of him.

So to look over and see the two of them in the same corner of the universe–never mind the same bed– was beyond belief.  I can’t even tell you.
Will wonders never cease?

Apparently not.

One thing I did notice though–only one of these kitties is actually sleeping. Lyla’s no dummy and she’s not taking her eyes off this dude.
Love at home, indeed…

with one eye open. Ha.

Miss Hazel’s Birthday

Such a lovely thing–a birthday. Honestly, I love coming to anyone’s birthday because we always have fun just the same. We just love being together. There’s always great food, lovely conversation, throwing footballs, opening presents, eating cake and sooo much laughter.

See for yourself.

 

Conference Calisthenics

Some people like to multitask. You know…doing several things at once.

In this case, Rhen likes to do his stretching while watching General Conference.

 

What he didn’t realize, until a few minutes in, was that he had a little shadow coming along for the ride. Every move he made… she followed, with sweet five-year-old precision.

“Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery” they say.  And seriously, if you’re going to mimic someone you may as well do it with exercise–right?

I’m sure, in the end it will help a lot…

especially after all that French toast.

Heh, heh.

It’s About the Lamb

I found the sweetest little Lamb pattern that seemed to fit perfectly with my goal of recognizing the Savior’s gift to us on Easter. I wanted to make them for my kids but I just couldn’t get five of them finished in time.

So instead, I ran them around to my neighbors with a sweet little booklet called “It’s Not About the Bunny, It’s About the Lamb.”

I think I’ll be making a few more of these.

At least 5 anyway.

Happy Easter!
