What a fun and crazy night! Since Travis is in Phoenix for work, Richie was working late and Ryan was at a golf tournament, Laura and Beck came over with their kids tonight to work on our unfinished sewing projects. So it made for a perfect night to get together.
It of course took us moms forever to start! Kennedy came home from her 101 Dalmatian play practice and was so excited to have a girls sewing night and be able to finish up a "secret" project she had started the other day. She got out her sewing kit (which she got last Christmas) and started working both secretly and vigilantly. After 3 1/2 hours of cutting, stuffing and sewing (by hand) Kennedy finished her creation. She is such a creative girl! She made me a hand sewn, stuffed dog (including every last detail-tail, ears and all) and a special carrying case/bed for the dog. It is so cute-I don't know where she come up with all of her ideas. She is such a thoughtful and caring girl. I love Kennedy so much and am so grateful to be her mom :)
Beck, Laura and I spent most of the night watching the kids and acting as a referee. Laura did, with Becky's help, finish a blanket for her baby. But, regardless of how much or little we accomplished, it's nice to get together! Now we just need to plan a "catch-up on your crafts project night" when our husbands are home to watch the kids. That way we can have a chance to get things finished. Hopefully next time we won't loose Laura's keys and spend over an hour looking for them only to discover her spare-set in her diaper bag! Somewhere in my house is a set of Laura's missing keys! ;)
