Yellow Skirt

Not long ago Aaron's mom mentioned that she could teach me to make some simple skirts for Nora. Given how quickly Nora outgrows dresses, I jumped at the chance. I love that we can make them the length we want. We have made two now, plus lengthened a dress, with probably a couple more skirts to come later. (I have her Easter skirt fabric all picked out!) 

This yellow one is the first one we did. Fortunately Nora decided she loved it enough to wear it to church.... I wasn't sure she would be willing to give up her too-short brown dress. I love how the skirt turned out. It's incredibly adorable!

This Sunday morning was drizzly and chilly and the kids were only sort-of focused on the camera. But they made some great funny faces!

Valentines

We have a lovely Valentines Day this year. We had our Valentines tree, which was slowly decorated for the first 13 days of the month. 


Zeke was super excited to take race car valentines with Kit-Kats to his classmates.


Aaron didn't have to work on Valentines Day (yay!) so we went flying in the late afternoon and then spent the rest of the evening running errands and making dinner together.
