Lowe's

Today we went to kid's build today at Lowe's. This is one of our favorite family times. Today the kids made football goals for tossing paper footballs through.

Family Game Night

Tonight we made pizza and had a great time playing games. My kids are growing up so much. Reagan is five and Kaitlyn is seven. Tonight we played Monoploy Junior. Usually Kaitlyn always wins, but tonight I was the winner. Usually I'm the first one out because I like to save my money instead of buying property.

This is Reagan taking my money. He gets really into it. He is not a graciuos winner. (I think he gets that from his Aunt Tammy)

Reagan's PJ's

I wanted to make Reagan some pajama's my mom always buys him some for Christmas, but I decided to make him. I work at a craft and store and have helped several people figure out how much fabric they need to make their project, so I thought how hard can it be. Last week we had a deal on fabric and patterns so I bought five patterns and enough fabric to make three pairs of pajama's. I hate to tell Simplicity but it was not so simple. Let's just say I don't think I'll be starting my own clothing line any time soon. The pants I kept sewing straight across so he couldn't get in them (sorry no pictures of that adventure, but you can get the general idea from my struggle from these pictures of the shirt adventure.)
This is a picture of me sewing the sleeve where the neck should go.

This is the sleeve inside out.

This is my wonderful husband helping me seam rip for the one hundredth. Isn't he great. (behind him is the quilt that I'm suppose to be working on before Christmas)
This is Reagan thrilled with his new pajamas. He found some train material I had in the bedroom and came out and said great now you start working on these.

no sour grapes

I work at a craft store where the majority of the employees voted for Obama. Of course they all know that I voted for McCain (and my store manager voted for McCain all the rest are Obama) I am very open about my faith and can still influence others with my positive attitude.For one thing I can be grateful that we live in a country where we do get to vote. So many times people don't get their way and spend the next four years complaining, instead I am going to spend my time praying for those over us because that's what the Bible says to do. When a negative thought enters my head I will lift that person up in prayer.

Tolerance???

This will not become a political blog but I need to vent a little. One of my dear friends is a Obama supporter and feels like people are judging her for supporting him I do not agree with how people are treating her at all. (I am a McCain supporter ) Several times in my friends blog people will write how Christians need to be more tolerant, and it makes me so frustrated we can not tolerate sin as Christians. Thou shalt not murder abortion is murder, marriage is to be between one man and one women I can not vote for someone who can just look the other way. Jesus was not tolerant of the women at the well he loved her enough not to be tolerant, but to confront her on her wrong and help her rise above, and that's what we need to do. We can't look down on people, but to look the other way is to let them keep going down a dangerous path. If we accept anything less than the Bible what future is our kids going to have. My own sister feels that there is nothing wrong with these things and it breaks my heart. I have no problem with Obama being black I wouldn't care if he was purple with pink dots and I am sick of this being about race, you know Jesus wasn't white but I still follow him. Please do not be offended by this it's just how I feel and I needed to get it out.

A funny thing at school

I teach four and five year old's at a preschool. This little boy is always having me smell stuff like empty pringle cans, dandelions, and other normal stuff. Today we were sitting down in the quiet area when he says smell my hand, he was just dropped off not too long ago so I'm thinking lotion. I smell his hand it smells awful and I ask him what that is and he says that's what my bottom smells like. I told him to go wash his hand using lots and lots of soap and water. He couldn't stop laughing; at the time I did not find this humorous.Where else in the job field can you experience stuff like this.
