This is Stella's teddy bear project for school. She wanted to make a fancy teddy bear. She named it Karetta. We used silk flowers, a pink necklace and pretty pink material for the dress. We also used glitter glue to outline it. We had fun and she is proud of it.

We had a relaxing day today. Yesterday we cleaned and organized the basement. It felt SO good to have it done. I got to the point where I didn't want to go down there because of the mess, but now it is much more tidy. Judah has been playing outside with his neighbor buddy everyday. They play detective and spies, and use at least 2 nerf guns each at a time. I am glad they have each other. Isaac made chicken scampi today and it was delicious! I am so glad that he loves to cook, and is good at it! Stella and I made a quick trip to Target to shop for her cousins Christmas gifts. I love spending mother and daughter time. We spent the drive looking for Christmas lights. She is so much fun to be with. I have been promising Judah a date too. I am really looking forward to that.
