Here's a blurry picture of the girls' finished knitting project. They knit a long rectangle then sewed the sides together. They crocheted straps then sewed them on to make great little purses.
They are also modeling their new t-shirts that we made. The idea came from my friend Anna. The girls chose their favorite animals (lizard and dolphin) and I used stencils to cut out fabric and stitch them onto these shirts. They are very proud and have worn them for 2 days in a row.
This picture was taken last week during the big snow that you see in the background. Our friends that moved away came back for a visit. The kids had a blast. (thanks for the beautiful hats Lesley and Jason...we love them!)
We had a little playgroup reunion at our house. Here they are having snacks.
Playing at the park.
We've been playing lots of music. The girls practice recorder and piano 3 times a week. Daniel has been playing some CCR along with them on the piano. He taught them a few chords (C, G, F and Am) and they keep rhythm and play along. Pretty cute and they love it.
