Simple and Makers House Party

Makers House Party Pic

FedEx dropped off my House Party pack.

I love the free parties they let's us throw!

I got 11 face wipes, 7 travelsized facial wash, 11 coupons, 11 quote magnets, 8 word cards to hold up in pictures, and 11 grocery tote bags.

Opening the box we saw the totes. My oldest dd mentioned the bag. I said I like bags (have a bunch of them). Then we pulled them out and it was 11 bags. She was like, "You hit the jackpot!" LOL

I can't wait for the party.

When You Believe...

Two nights ago we watched The Prince Of Egypt for the first time in years. I love the music in the movie. My favorite part is in 'When You Believe', when the children are singing in Hebrew.

I will leave you with that part as my song for Sunday...

Ashira l'adonai ki ga'oh ga'ah
Ashira l'adonai ki ga'oh ga'ah
Michamocha, ba-elim adonai
Michamocha nedar-bakodesh
Nachitah v'chasd'cha, am zu ga'alta
Nachitah v'chasd'cha, am zu ga'alta
Ashira, Ashira, Ashira...


Translation:
I will sing unto Adonai for He has triumphed gloriously.
I will sing unto Adonai for He has triumphed gloriously.
Who is like You, O Adondai, among the gods?
Who is like You, glorious in holiness?
In Your mercy, you lead the people You redeemed.
In Your mercy, you lead the people You redeemed.
I will sing, I will sing, I will sing...

Tomorrow Bekah Turns 3

Tomorrow is Bekah's 3rd birthday. She was our 1st unassisted birth. What an amazing birth, amazing baby, and amazing little girl! I can't describe how much she is loved.

Here is the link to her birth story.

Since tomorrow is going to be busy with church and Brent's play practice, we decided to celebrate Bekah's birthday today. She had cupcakes, ice cream, and presents. Brigham gave her his little soccer ball. Abby gave Bekah her Tinkerbell hat (Bekah loves Tinkerbell). We got her a tin Tinkerbell lunchbox, a My Little Pony DVD, and I made her a red tutu. She loves it all.

Happy Big 3 my big girl.

Her Birthmark

Did I mention Joy's birthmark? A speckled toe!





Joy Is 4 Weeks Old Today

Joy is 4 weeks old today. I put her in the sling and weighed her. She was 12 lbs 1 oz. I was surprised because she felt so much heavier. LOL! A baby brick.

I'm so happy to have her in our family. I smile every time I look at her.

So Sweet!!

Just a quick post! I had to share because it was such a sweet picture if Joy taking a nap today while I finished making Rebekah's tutu.



Rebekah's Birthday Soon

I can't believe Rebekah will be 3 soon! Where does the time go?

I've been busy thinking of what to get for her birthday. She loves Tinkerbell. She loves dressing up. What I've been contemplating is making a "no sew tutu" for her. Someone on our Facebook group also mentioned making a fairy wand. A great idea! I think I'm going to try it out. If it doesn't work, I'll get one from Listia. I will have enough credits by this coming week to get one if needed.

I'm pretty excited! If it looks good, I'll post a picture.
