a dress preview

Our church had there Christmas programs this Sunday and they were good. They had the kids sing a few songs and then the adults sang and performed. After the kids got done singing I wanted a picture of my two kiddos. Cameron thought it would be cool to include our pastor, which I have no objections. The pastor gladly let us take the picture. Kirsten was one of the angels and I thought she did great. I had some people tell me they were waiting for Kirsten to run. They needed a good laugh. Well, she did not run, but Kirsten did try to do the bigger kids motions.

My girls were not going to get Christmas dresses this year. I could not find one I liked and then I could not get the girls matching or at least get colors that matched. I finally got to the point of realization, the girls needed (or I wanted) Christmas dresses. I found two not so cute and did not go together at ALL dresses. I could not bring myself to buy them. So, I decided to make the girls Christmas dresses. The dresses match and I also made jackets for the dresses that will match. This is Kacy's dress and jacket. I was really kind of shocked at how excited the girls were about me making them dresses. I made Kirsten's dress first and Kacy was so sad she did not have one. Kacy took the extra fabric and just wanted me to wrap her up in it. When I am sewing the girls and even Cameron is hovering over me. All I have to do is start the machine and kids swarm around. Well, tell me what you think. I have not made anything since the 9Th grade and I did not use any patterns. Josh got me the sewing machine on Saturday for a Christmas present.
