Split Skirts

I've been wanting to make some split skirts for camp, and when it worked out to go to Woods I thought it'd be nice for farm things too, so I hurried and finished two in the last two days. That's right people, Lydia, the Lydia you know and love actually finished a sewing project.*faint*

Here's the first one, I love this material:

Here's the blue one, sorry to cut my face out, but my hair was a big mess.

In answer to Annie's question my fave. picture is from the annual Harvest/Costume/Scavenger Hunt Party the home school group does. My friend Lillie's birthday was just a few days before the party so I dressed up as her birthday present with a card that everyone at the party signed. Joe was Dad in the army:

The coat was a little too big, but I think he looked great.

Cheerio for now!!!

HI! I found this quote today that I really liked. It's the start of ANOTHER boring post but, oh well:-)

Here you go!

"Mum's Flow'r Pot"

So Mother's Day was 4(?) weeks ago. And it seemed to slip every one's minds in our family that we should PROBABLY get our Mama a present. Mom's birthday, our parents anniversary and Mom's Day just happens to be all in a week's time this year, so you can hardly blame us. Not that we didn't want to get her a present, we were fully intending to, the day just came awful fast. Anyway,we ended up getting her some clay pots and Susie and I painted on one of them "Mommy Flowerpot."

Susie took care of making it look presentable, and I gave it the Kindergarten look. (Which is what we were going for.) So it turned out nice (I think) and Mom likes it:-)

Just for fun, I posted a random picture of one of the flowers in our garden:-)

Narnian Quotes

This is one of my favorite Narnian quotes:

"The trouble with making yourself stupider than you really are is that you very often succeed."

I don't remember which book it's from, I always loved the way C.S. Lewis wrote, so simple and understandable.

Aslan said this to Aravis:

"Child, I am telling you your story, not hers. I tell no one any story but his own."

That reminds me that my business is my business, not to try to meddle in others, God has their story all under control.

Lyds!

P.S. What do ya think of the new backround??????
