Busy Day....

 Here's Savannah crafting a wreath . We do this on the cheap, a pizza box and paper back novel.

 This is the finished product. A few sprigs of fake flowers and some ribbons. Savannah says she is taking this home for her room. :):)
With our craft newspapers still on the table, I get busy hemming her pants. Four pairs.  Savannah's aunt Angie, came to take her swimming. Which is the most fun thing for Savannah, that girl loves to swim.  So I got  a wee break to make a post.
 Hope all will be safe this weekend. Many storms headed our way.  I don't mind if we have a mild storm but I hate the wild ones with winds, too much rain and the treat of tornadoes. Be safe. XO

  1. So praying that the storms jump over Indiana, the east coast, and land in the Atlantic!
    I have loved ones traveling in NY and Vermont right now!
    Thanks for the well wishes for my Mom!

  2. Sounds like a fun day there. I hope we don't get the nasty storms, but it looks like it is going to track right through here. The air is so thick you can cut it with a knife right now and I really ache. Not good signs. Be safe.
