This weekend we celebrated my birthday. The celebrations started out by painting fabric with RIT fabric dye. The plan is to recover a small seat cushion with a part that Maile painted. Then we made home made ice cream in a bag. Yes I am still on a "make things in a bag" kick. We all started out shaking our own bags to make the ice cream but sure enough after one minute the kids were done so I was the one that ended up shaking the bags for 5 minutes a piece. It worked though and actually tasted pretty darn good. Then Sunday rolled around and I decided it wasn't too early to bust out a sweet little dress that I have been saving for the warmer weather (I just named it the Irish Spring dress).
couple of side notes:
Mr. Boots was a real rascal at church.
I love that I captured Choany hanging onto my leg as he sucks his thumb. I think it is so cute when he does that.
Beautiful birthday flowers.
A sweet potato has proved to be one of our best growing house plants.
Tried a new to us restaurant called Fuego Bistro. It was good.
Found that little stool with the wood seat at Ross Dress For Less of all places.
Hope you had a great weekend. I will be back with the winner of the giveaway tomorrow.

Are you telling me that you painted that skirt that one of the M's is wearing!!?? Are you kidding me. How!
Ice cream in a bag??? What is that? I will have to pop on over to check it out because my curiosity has got the better of me!
Your flowers look gorgeous and I love the earthiness of the little stool. Sounds like you had a very busy and fun birthday.
Happy Birthday!!!!! Your pictures are always so adorable, and the first one of the flowers and dots is pulling at my heart!

Happy happy birthday!! Sounds like the perfect way to celebrate your birthday. Ice cream in a bag?! How much fun. First the popcorn now this - how eye opening for me. Thanks for sharing!
Happy Birthday! That stool is awesome and the dress is adorable. My little man is all about the cowboy boots. Wears them everwhere, but gets tired of walking in them, so I always end up carrying him and thus dread the boots.
Happy belated birthday! It looks like you had a great one. I've been meaning to tell you - my niece is named Maren so I feel a kinship! And I love the name Maile too.
