A cute little ice cream cone that will never melt!
Mary picked out the cutest sundress pattern along with some beautiful fabric. She's busy working on that.
I found this pretty mirror at the thrift store-it's looks even nicer painted white.
Grace and Emma got these unfinished wooden boxes, basket and tray at Hobby Lobby. They had so much fun painting and decorating them.
I whipped up some very simple muslin tableclothes for the 3 tables at the barn.
Here's one of Grace's finished projects. She uses it to keep books in by her bed.

She had fallen from her nest way up high in our Magnolia tree. I know not to touch a baby bird, but she was walking straight into the street. We knew she's get hit by a car if we didn't move her back. The momma bird (btw, they are Blue Jays) was flying all around trying to check out her baby. Emma was so distressed (see her face in the pic above), worrying about the little bird. 
This little one seemed pretty strong. I'd like to think it was able to survive. We haven't seen it anymore in the yard. It was special for all of us to get to see a beautiful little creature like this up close.
Each year at the end of dance we always have such a hard time choosing gifts for each of the teachers. This year we had four teachers. I like the idea of getting them something they can truly use instead of just a dust catcher.
