Father's Day

I know Father's Day has long since come and gone and without a peep from me but I wanted to add a few photos of some of my favorite fathers.

A Day of Accomplishments

Today Ian learned to "swim," okay, he was wearing a lifejacket and water wings, but he was belly down and using his arms and legs to move himself through the water.
As for Kai, he put his hat on his head a bunch of times and played a game of peek-a-boo with a ball and his hat, hiding and lifting the hat all by himself.
Oh what a day!

My Lillies

Rags to accessories

I found a tutorial for these somewhere (if anyone knows where please let me know) and now everyone wants me to make them one. The only hard part is finding time to make them. Simply braid three pieces of fabric and sew in an elastic.
