My favorite dress pattern

I've meaning to post about these two dresses I made for a silent auction at Memphis' school back in October. I really love how they turned out. The pattern is from Heather Ross' Weekend Sewing book. I've made it many times before and I really do love it. The material on the bottom dress is from one of my favorite illustrators turned fabric designer, Sarah Jane. I picked up some more of the white fabric to make a birthday dress for Leia. Can you believe she's going to be one in less than three months, I can't! My favorite little detail about these dresses are the PS I love you tags with the hand embroidered size stitched into them. I thought it made them look a little more professional.

LA Temple

We took the kids and my parents to the LA Temple a few weeks ago in October. We were married in the LA Temple 8 1/2 years ago. The grounds were just as beautiful now as they were back then.

Halloween 2011

Lots of fun and LOTS of candy. We hope you guys had a wonderful Halloween, too.

Loving these beach days

KIDS + BEACH = ONE HAPPY DAY

Canalino Jog-A-Thon

Merrick's school did a jog-a-thon on Oct. 14th to raise money for their school. Merrick ran/walked the whole 45min. Grandma Donovan, Leia and I were there to cheer him on and give him lots of high fives. We are so proud of him.
