Baby Bib Aprons-“Baprons”

We have a new little granddaughter coming in the near future and we are so excited!  So I have started a little bit of sewing for this new little granddaughter!

My friend, Kathy, introduced me to these cute, new little bib/aprons. She gave me the pattern for these “Baprons” and I absolutely love this concept!  They cover well and they stay in place because it has armholes like an apron!  Why didn’t we ever have these fun, cute things when my kids were little?

Thursday’s Thought-I Can Do Hard Things

I was having a frustrating day last Friday and I was in a hurry and everything was going wrong.  The faster I tried to go the more frustrated I got.  I was driving on the freeway and people were cutting me off or pulling in front of me and slowing down,  I was becoming a nervous wreck.  I finally just said to myself…this is ridiculous,  you are getting frustrated over petty little things.  What if you had some real problems to worry about!  It was a good wake up call to myself!  There are bad things going on all around us, but yet there are so many more good things, if we will just keep our focus on the positive.

Then on Sunday at church we had a lesson on trials and there were a lot of different comments about how we handle our trials.  There are several ladies in our neighborhood that are going through some pretty tough trials right now and one of them made the comment about how she had this saying right by her bed and one day her daughter came in when she was having a teary moment and through her tears, she said to her daughter that she could not do hard things.  Her daughter replied, “Yes you can, they may just be through some tears, but you can do hard things, mom.”  That really touched my heart and I have thought about that many times this week.

It is all in our attitude!

So my thought for this week is the saying that my neighbor has by her bed:

Thoughts-3-000-Page-1

I need to print this out and frame it so I can have a good reminder!   I have so many great examples all of around me of people that are doing hard things.  I am so proud of them and I appreciate their strength and examples.

If you would like to print this, right click over image and go to “save image as”  then save in a folder.  It is formatted for an 8 x 10 picture.  You can send it to your favorite photo processing center or print your own!

I think that I will look for a fun frame to put this one in!

Have a great day today and remember that

You Can Do Hard Things!  Love Ya!

Wedding Subway Art Picture

Love is in the Air!

Last week I promised you a gift idea that you can use for all those spring weddings that are coming up!

This is a fun subway art picture.  I buy a nice frame to put this in and add a note that they can change out the picture later for one of their wedding pictures when they get them back!   Although a lot of the recipients like the subway art and say that they are not going to change it out! :)

Make-up Bag and Brush Holder

One of the stops that we made on our recent trip was at the Mac Cosmetic Store in Las Vegas!  I love going to this store because we only have Mac Counters in Utah, so when I get close to a store I try to make a visit!  :)

I love their products and the quality, but they are a little pricey so I feel like I have to be careful when using them and take good care of my products.  So when I got home I decided that a new make-up bag and brush holder were in order!
