Michael Miller Madness...

So I'm at a consignment shop with my sister this weekend and found the cutest little thing while I was there...a "taggie"...it's a small square security blanket for babies/toddlers with tags (ribbon material) all around the edges. There was one that was a really cute brown and teal pattern that I wanted sooo bad, but since it was $16.99, I decided against it. When I got home, I decided to look around on ebay and I found out the pattern I loved was by Michael Miller. Since I never go to fabric stores, I had no idea who this guy was, but the more I researched, the more I found of his stuff that I love! It's turned into a bit of an ebay obsession. There are so many cute patterns and I found a taggie that was $7.99! I realized that I'm watching all of these auctions of cute patterns by MM for a yard or two of fabric, but the problem is, I don't even know how to sew! Maybe I can get my mother-in-law to sew me something cute with this pattern for Reagan!

Only One Left...

For the past 9 weeks, I've been going to a Bible Study at church on Wednesday mornings for Moms. We meet from 9:30-10:30 in a large group and from 10:30-11:30 in a smaller group of about 15 moms. I've really enjoyed being challenged in my walk with God not only as a mom, but as a wife, sister, daughter, and friend. Next Wednesday is our last study before Christmas break and it starts back up on Jan. 16 for another 10 weeks. We are moving to Baltimore the week of Jan. 11, so this upcoming Wednesday will be my last study with this group of moms. I'm really going to miss it. I have met some strong, encouraging, Christian women that have really taught me a lot about life. I pray that I'll find a group of moms/women in Baltimore that will be as open to sharing life as the women in my group have been here at Southeast.
