Summer

 Monday we were going to a family outing  not celebrating 4th of July, since we live in Norway,but celebrating family members living in Italy visiting Norway for the summer. I asked Princess which dress she wanted to wear, when she told me she wanted a pair of shorts. I've never been able to dress them in shorts before, so, well, her closet isn't really full of shorts.

That's when it comes in very handy being able to sew. I whipped out a fabric from an old failed project,used a pair of Princess' tights and cut out the fabric with zig zag scissors - no need zig zag around the edges. She wanted pockets, she got pockets - the legs look uneven here, but their not. Princess happy, mom happy - a pair of shorts in 15 min.

 Angel and Princess practicing swimming.

 I went to the fabric store today - and came home with these three fabrics - the plaid will be a dress for me, the green a romper for Princess and the purple (always the purple) a romper for Angel. Can't wait, I think I will have to do some sewing tonight.... I think.

Now I'll have to go hang some laundry.
