Hello happy Tuesday!

Apparently I never got around to posting yesterday. 

Sunday the kids came over to play. Grandpa got some TV cuddle time in with Daniel. He hasn't done that in awhile.

I made this homemade hamburger helper for dinner. Mine looks nothing like their picture lol 

The two older kids wouldn't even touch it but Nate had some.

I made a bunch of scrappy gift card stocking holders from my misc leftover scrap squares. I like the ones from the string blocks. I was thinking these would be fun with sports teams for next year's craft booth. They are really quick to make.

Last night I made this Steak & Cheese meal. It was kind of similar to the Pepper Steak I make. I made a few substitutions since I didn't have any brandy or Provolone. It still turned out pretty good though. 

My mom has been going through a lot of her stuff and she brought a bunch of sewing related stuff here. There was a bag with these 2 unfinished frogs in it. They were hand sewn and just needed the feet (and better stitching) added. I sewed around the edges with the sewing machine and attached the feet. I couldn't find my stuffing though so I have to do that still. My mom reminded me that she brought me a bunch and it was out in her trailer so I can finish them up tonight. They are goofy but Scott has a similar frog someone made him when he was a baby so I got a kick out of them. My mom didn't know who had made these just that they came with all the grandma's stuff.

Lucy climbed into Snookie's bed with her this morning. So cute! They stayed like that for a long time until I had to get up and step over them to get out of the room. 

Tonight I have darts. Coughing a bit so probably take some cough meds before I got down there. I'm pretty sure we've all had these three viruses around here by now.
