Rocking Love Seat

 I got this greenish, goldish crushed velvet love seat from my Uncle Brent's mother Nona a long time ago!  It was our main furniture when we first got married and has traveled from Idaho to Texas to Utah.  I finally found some cute fabric and got started on recovering!
                                                                  First cute pillows!
 Taking apart is always kind of fun and daunting!  The back surprised me how the buttons worked.
After 4 attempts on the buttons here is the end result!  I love it!  My mom helped out in donating some money for new cushions and yes they are so much more comfy!  The button story is I recovered the 21 buttons in small with the same fabric as the love seat but they all popped off and open, very frustrating!  The fabric was too thick so I bought bigger buttons and did less but same thing so then I bought more pillow fabric and did white part of the fabric and it looked stupid so I redid the 21 buttons a 4th time in the red part of the pillow fabric and it turned out nicely!  Glad that project is done!! I started Jan 7 and finished March 26.  My projects don't usually last that long!

Beck at the Draper Park


 Only just a few months earlier around October he had super cry face on these same toys at the park!  He is coming a long way in being a brave and happy boy!!!


Audrey

      Audrey and I made her three Hello Kitty puzzles together!  It was fun! Feb 27
 We were in a hurry to get to school and Audrey still needed to button up her shirt so I told her to do it in the car on our way.  Cambria looked back as we were almost at the school and this is what  had happened!!  I was dying laughing which made her cry!  But come on buttoning up your shirt over the seat belt is FUNNY!!  So I dropped off Cambria and then went and parked and helped her unbutton and rebutton her shirt for school!

 I love when my kids are so cute and nice to each other!  I have to document it!
