Pause

Oh dear bunny readers, life must go on pause soon! It has been crazy over here. I had to take Ammon to the doctor's because he slammed his thumb in the car door. Thankfully it is not broken and he got to see an x-ray of his thumb which he thought was "totally awesome." I went out of town for most of the weekend to spend time with my parents at a horse show. They will be moving to Texas soon :( Then my car got hit in a parking lot!!!! AAAHHHHH!!! This was just a minor fender bender. No real damage. Just paint scratched off the bumper, which is plastic and not cracked. Phew!

Anyway my last day at work, as you are well aware of, was Friday May 30. It was a great day, complete with pizza, presents (which were unexpected and greatly appreciated...I do love getting presents) and a fabulous cake made by my friend Chris. It was chocolate mint and was divine! It made me aware of how much I meant to them and how much they will miss me. I must make a very conscious effort to stay in touch with all of them. They are a great group of people.

So far the stay at home mom thing is going great, too! The boys are fun but challenging. It was nice being home with Nathan all day on Monday, since we do not get to spend too much time together anymore. I also got my apron done for the Sassy Apron Swap ( see the sidebar) and have all pieces ready to send for the fabric scrap swap! I received a HUGE stash from a lady in Kansas, which I am going to turn into something fabulous! I also have my first commissioned bag to work on. My mom wants me to make her a bag for her birthday with my giraffe block print on it. She saw my samples hanging to dry at my house and fell in love with the giraffe.

Well I am off to fold laundry. Hooray. Maybe I will work on a website and some illustrations instead.........oh I almost forgot. Ammon keeps praying to God that he will get super powers, specifically flame throwing and x-ray vision. These are the powers for his super hero he created during art class today, Starfire Boy. Starfire boy sort of reminded me of a cross between The Human Torch from the Fantastic Four and Superman. I love that kid!
