Sewing and Snowing

After that warm week we've had a much chillier weekend. I used the time indoors to make some headbands and hairclips.
Paige has been wanting to learn to sew, and she asked if she could make an owl pillow like Skye requested for her baby girl. So I helped Paige make a pattern for a small felt one, and she sewed and stuffed it almost entirely by herself.
She did so well!
Now I just need to learn how myself, so I can teach her how to sew properly.

Today is even colder, so I was sewing some more, and I looked out the window and it was snowing! Naturally we had to go play in it.
Caso's awesome.
They had lots of fun, especially Gia.
We even had a snowball fight with each other and a neighbor boy.
He almost hit me while I took pics from the doorway.

Then because we're not prepared for this weather, Neely's hands got cold and she'd had enough.
She and I came in for her nap, but the other two stayed out with daddy to make these guys.
Now I have to go enjoy the last of our spring break before Jess goes back to work tomorrow. :(
