Craft Night :]

So I wanted to get the girls together for a little crafting, wine, food and fun mainly because I had some stuff to get done and needed a little friend motivation!  We all had our projects that we wanted to do, so everyone came over and we got em done!  There was some learning curve and even a surprise along the way!

Here's Liz getting ready to sew Willa a new dress.....  

Amanda was making stuff for Madison's party on her Cricut....

 Kristen took a chance and learned how to sew!  She came with 2 projects in mind...reveal later :]

 Kelli was ready to learn how to sew as well, and since the machine was giving us some troubles, she had to hand sew some ribbons on her project....

 Make sure to measure twice and cut once :]  

Craft night was going great, we were sewing, cutting and having a great time chatting!  All of a sudden I realized we hadn't even cracked open the wine yet!  Now Kelli's on a diet, Kristen doesn't drink, and Liz brought some white wine {yuck} so I looked to Amanda to share my red.  I asked if she wanted a glass and she said something like "no thanks".  I said "why not?????". And she innocently said "I'm pregnant".

Jaws drop and screaming commence!  Liz said "how can I even sew after that?".  Check out the faces of our reaction to the great news.....



I can't tell you how excited I am for you Amanda!!!!  What a blessing baby #4 will be!  I know you weren't expecting this and we know God laughs at your timing and plans all the time, but I also know that God is in control and his blessing will rain down on you and this new baby!!!  I can't wait to meet him or her :]

Here's the first Baby Bump pic!!!!!

That was the surprise, now back to craft night.....

Check out that technique :]

 I had to get in on that cricut action making some stuff for my friend Tonya's baby shower!

Here's some of the finished products......

Kristen and baby Luedke #4 modeling the bubble skirt Kristen made for Sophie!

Here's the dress Liz made for Willa Bean :]

 Love this lady!!!

Kelli modeling her crib teething pads for Brewer's crib!

 And Kristen with project #2....a nursing cover for her friend's baby shower :]

The girls stayed over until about Midnight and we had tons of fun!  Our next craft night is coming in May and I can't wait to create more fun things!  I wonder if there will be any fun announcements made in May?

Brewer is 1!!

Brewer's farm was in full swing for his 1st bday and we were glad to be there to celebrate with the little cowboy!  Here's our motley crew dressed up in our gear :]

Here's the bday boy in deep thought about his 1st year :]


Kelli had lots of cute things for the kids to do!  This was Joey's attempt at making a pig balloon.....not quite sure if you would have guessed that on your own though :]  She really is smart, but somehow that doesn't translate to balloons and stickers :]


We also played pin the tail on the donkey :]  Even the adults got in on the fun!!!  Go Louis :]


Kristen looks thrilled to be playing :]



Then it was time to head outside to find the animals that escaped from the barn!  They were lost in the hay!


Nothing like a good old fashioned bean bag toss people :]


Pretty sure Isaiah beat us all, but he did have some help :]


The Robinson's were obviously having fun :]


The finale was some yummy cake!!!!  It was the cutest thing and tasted so yummy!!!


Happy Birthday Brewer!  We are so glad we know you and can't wait to see what a fun young man you grow up to be!  

Kelli and Brian...way to keep him going for an entire year!!! Congrats you two :]
