About 3 weeks ago I thought.. "Hey let's make the kids some cute outfits for Easter." Then I bought some fabric and those 2 patterns… and forgot about it.

You see last year I did this polka dot number for Easter, but didn't make anything for #1… or for the Ginger either.

Christmas I did this…

Here is this years fabric… Do you think I can get 2 dresses and 4 ties done before Sunrise Service next Sunday?

Me Neither…

Sometimes I feel like my life is one strange episode of Seinfeld… just not as funny.

Wednesday’s To Do List:

1.  Make Peanut Butter crunch marshmallow treats

2. update blogs

3. SEQUINS oh.. yes.. and more sequins

4. Write up church eBay stuff.

5. CE Meeting

6. Dinner= Potluck

7. check on photos.. (I’m moving my hosting)

8. Take #3 & #4 to Pool Party

If you follow my To-Do list.. (GET A LIFE) I’m kidding.. thank you for reading my boring lists.. You would know that I have been working on some pressing projects.  #1 has a wedding to go to, and for some reason COULD NOT wear any of the clothing she owns.. or buy any new clothing.  #4 needed a yellow tie made for his dance recital costume, #3 needed a solo costume made for her dance “A Day with the Cat in the Hat”.  Along with that costume.. she thought it would be cute to have her two younger brothers (#4 and #5) dress up as Thing 1 and Thing 2… SO I made those costumes also.  I am SO glad I took the the clothing and textile classes all 4 years in high school, or my kids would be out of luck!

I present to you Thing 1 and Thing 2.

Here’s #3 in her skirt.  I still need to put the sequins on it.

I think she really likes it when she spins in it.  I thought the costume

looked a little pirate-ish to me.  Argh! Matey!

Wrestle-Mania is alive and well at my house.

#1 chose some vintage fabric we had downstairs for her skirt.

The fabric was a pain to work with.. but I think it turned out pretty cute.

I forgot to take a photo of #4 in his tie… but I promise I made it too 🙂
