Baby Loafers



 Love how these little boy loafers turned out!  I used this pattern.  Well written and easy to follow.  They became my cake topper for this diaper cake.

County Fair Ribbons


There is something totally fun and exciting about entering items in the county fair!  Even though I crafted often as a child (sewing, crocheting, miniatures, etc.) I never entered anything in the fair until last year.  I wasn't as excited about my projects this year, but I still did fairly well (no pun intended :).

Chokecherry Syrup


It is such a fulfilling thing to harvest food and see it processed and made ready to give or store for future use.  Yesterday my kids and I were able to go to our gracious neighbors home to pick from their chokecherry trees.  We made syrup to enjoy on pancakes and waffles.  Yum!
