Holly, you changed my life!

Cross stitching...
 So Holly was the initiator of my new obsession with cross- stitching. I found these  ornaments at a yard sale and did each of them in like a day. I can't get enough of this hobby. It's also a great one to do with friends and on road trips and on planes. I'm also doing a big complex one but you have to wait to see that one.

See what I have already done here

I love this! Yay cross-stitch.

Asia's Baptism!!

Asia got baptized! I am so proud of her. She is so amazing. She is holding the scripture bag that my mom made for her. 

We did a lot of swimming while my brother and his family visited! So much fun. Jumping off things. Doing flips. Splashing. Here are some of my favorite pictures.  

Oh and I finished another cross-stitch. I started this one when we went out East and I finally finished. I had help on it. My nieces and nephews helped with some of the houses.

I found a counted cross-stitch kit at DI for $1 and I loved it. It's my first real counted cross-stitch project. I finished it in like 2 weeks...probably a total of 10 hours. I am really getting into this craft. Thanks Faith and Holly! Cross-stitching is wonderful cause you get to watch your picture grow. Here is this last project growing.

 My cousin Ryan and his wife Cherry just had a baby. His name is Rad and he is super cute. I thought that this project would be a perfect gift for him. He is adorable! We are friends!

Me & Baby Rad!

With no school, I have a lot of time on my hands and what better way to spend that time than doing crafts? So Faith and Holly cross stitch. Holly got Ashlee and I to start cross stitching. We started with something simple. It's a Christmas ornament, but I turned it into a magnet. I haven't cross stitched since I was 8 and I couldn't remember anything about how to do it.  Holly and Faith are watching over us as we learn and we watch Jane Austen while we stitch. I can't wait to start the next project!
