One Day at a Time ...: Sewing For Fun!
http://olindaruth.blogspot.com/2013/01/sewing-for-fun.html
Saturday, January 26, 2013. I made a second bag at the same time to keep at Grandma's house! I think these would be great for the car or church time or waiting rooms. I enlisted Lucas to harvest the pellets from the Beanie Babies, but Naomi couldn't bear to see the empty "bodies" discarded, so she was rescuing them and re-stuffing them with batting and sewing them shut. So she has a whole new menagerie of animals after this project! January 27, 2013 at 10:25 AM. What a wonderful project my friend! The pa...

Friday, June 27, 2014. I wish I had taken some "before" photos, but the best I could do was find a couple from 2 and more years ago (when Mr. O and Mr. B were newborns) that give some idea of the condition of the benches. Wednesday, June 11, 2014. Catching Up On Life. Sometimes life gets so busy just "living" it, that there's not much time for "recording" it. Such has been the last two months for all of us. Below are some photos that will bring my blog a little bit up-to-date! Flowers from the yard.

Sunday, April 13, 2014. Yesterday we were blessed to have some of our family here to help finish a few projects outdoors. Crandon brought his chain saw and finished taking down our elm tree and sawed all the logs into burn lengths for next winter. We rented a chipper and mulched all the smaller branches into mulch that will be useful several places on the property. Also the gutters got cleaned out and the dryer (almost) repaired. We finished with a shared meal. Great day! Monday, April 7, 2014. I'm Olind...

Wednesday, August 20, 2014. Yesterday my Uncle Henry moved on from his earthly home to his eternal one. In the past 3 years, much of his body and mind had already failed him, leaving him all the more eager for his heavenly home. The only sadness I can feel is in knowing that it is the end of an earthly relationship and the conclusion of a long, well lived life. When I think of Uncle Henry a few memorable things come to mind. Wednesday, August 13, 2014. Day at the County Fair. Last week we spent an aftern...

Tuesday, July 29, 2014. It's definitely what's for dinner! Our dairy cow project has turned into a beef project. The animal was slaughtered a few weeks ago, and has been at a semi-local butcher shop, hanging and getting cut and packaged. We went to pick up all our meat this past weekend. I don't know what the live weight of the cow was, probably 600-700 lbs. but we came away with 350 lbs. for the freezer (including a few packages of fat to render, and five bags of bones for bone broth). The sign out front.

Angela Dawn Designs: February 2015
http://www.angeladawndesigns.com/2015_02_01_archive.html
Thursday, February 26, 2015. I have finally "finished" the boys' room! As finished as anything can be in a home, since decorating and organizing are rather organic as a family grows and changes. I have tried to incorporate things that are useful and/or have some kind of significance. One quilt my grandmother made for my mother, before she was born, the other quilt I made for my hope chest. The pendant flags are left from A.'s first birthday. All the furniture was given to us from family. This picture is ...

Tuesday, April 8, 2014. We made a very spontaneous run to Sacramento this weekend. When our Sunday fellowship plans fell through, due to illness, we decided to book a hotel for a couple nights and then find some snow on Sunday! In front of the Sterling Hotel. This was a fun place to stay- a big victorian house built in the 1890s and converted to a hotel. It has just 16 rooms, each unique. He really had fun until his little pant legs got soaked through and cold on his skin! Time for some lunch! A few pict...

Monday, May 4, 2015. A few photos of what we've been up to lately. This doll outfit was a sewing project Naomi did as a birthday gift for her niece. A trip we made last week, ultimately for Lucas to take his driver's permit exam, but that included a stop at Lake Sonoma and a visit to the fish hatchery. Lunch time in the shade (it was 90 degrees)! A bunny breakfast pancake that Naomi made me as an early "Mother's Day" breakfast. Lucas with some friends at our Touche year end BBQ and swim party. 8220;Mom, ...

Wednesday, June 24, 2015. A Little of This. and a Little of That. I have failed miserably in trying to put something up on my blog on a regular basis! Somehow life just moves along and days turn into weeks and weeks into months. Well. rather than make excuses, here is a smattering of a photos from the past month. Enjoy. A new grandson, Mr. I, welcomed and loved by all! A 7th baby blanket finished to welcome the new little one. Miss M. at her spring ballet recital; could she be any sweeter? I'm Olinda, a ...
