QUIET BOOK :)

TY is still a bit young for a quiet book...but I'm sure when he can play with it he will LOVE it:) ....well that's my dream!
Page 1: the letters all have snaps on them, so he can match them up
Page 2: Robots arms are elastic so he can pull on them as hard as he wants, also his body opens up so you can see his heart.
Page 3: the gum balls all have Velcro on them, so he can match his colors.
Page 4: the tent can open..where you find a bear inside that's a finger puppet.
Page 5: the apples on the tree are all snaps, also the basket has an opening for him to put the apples

Page 6: the barn opens where he will find more finger puppets.. a chicken, pig and cow
Page 7: the tractor wheels turn and the loader moves up and down


Page 8 and 9: Mr. and Mrs. Potato head, made with lots of different face features and accessories
Page 10: the rocket moves up and down..like it can fly to space
Page 11: the tool box opens where he will find all sorts of tools to play with

Page 13: the piggy bank has a slip in it where he can put money in and out of

I will make one last page --TO TYGER LOVE MOMMY--
then I am done
The cover..

I love how this turned out and I cant wait for Ty to be able to play with it.
In the mean time I am now working on a SPORTS quiet book ....
they are addicting

The remarkable soul of a woman

Today while Jayson watched the game I noticed this book on the shelf at
his parents house. I have wanted to read it for a while now. So I picked it up and
thought I would start it. It reminded me of a talk, I was reading it as if I was hearing
President Uchtdorf saying it... You know.. with his sweet German accent.

About twenty five minutes later I finished..such a light read,
but so amazing. Made me tear up a time or two.

I LOVED IT!!! I think every woman should read:)

Missy and Justins bath towels

My brother and Missy GOT MARRIED Saturday!!
I wanted to make the lovely couple John Deere towels:)
LOVE EM??
If so
ill show you how I did it..

YOU WILL NEED
plain towels
material of your choice

measure your towel to see how long and wide
you will need to cut your material...

don't forget to add for your seam.
I took an extra inch for length
 and an inch for the width
(1/2 inch on both ends)
cut the material you picked..
then place it on the towel where you want it
iron your seams down
-this is why you need that extra inch-


pin it to the towel
-makes sewing a lot easier-

when you get it all pinned and
it looks just as you would like it
your all ready

time to get your sew on

i did a zig zag stitch.. <3 it

I did Justins towel and the
hand towels the same way


thanks:)
