Longies

This was my first attempt at making wool longies. I think they turned out so cute. The wool is nice because it is fire resistant, breathable, warm in the winter and cool in the summer and doesn't stink when it gets wet. I finally drug my sewing machine out of the bottom of my closet and got it working. It took me two hours to figure out how to thread it but now it's working good and I can do all the fun projects that I've been wanting to do. I also made another pair of pants that are really cute but don't have time to post the pictures today. This pattern was extremely easy! You just cut the sleeves off of a sweater, cut down the seam a ways and then sew the two sleeves together. Then you just make a casing for the elastic and wahla!! I love easy!

Comfy and Cozy


Ammon got these gloves and hat from Grandmimi and Grandpapa. They have been so wonderful in the cold weather!!!! I thought he looked so cozy and of course cute! He's been such a bundle of joy. He hates being put in his car seat most of the time but as soon as we pick him up he's fine.
