St. Patti's Day

Oh, St.Patrick's Day is over. It was really a breeze compared with last year (when I had to take the boys with us to all 4 shows...and I was 8 months pregnant). This year my Mom came over to help AND Tony got off of work early. So much easier.

The only part that wasn't easier involved new costumes. I think in an effort to make them less expensive {appreciated}, the costumes came cut out - all ready to sew together {not appreciated}. I'm sure that a couple of years from now (if they're still dancing), we'll be buying a solo costume for the price of a small car and wishing I could sew it myself.

I know what you're thinking. Annalia, you love sewing. I love joyful, fun, pretty sewing. I don't love mandatory, purple, soul-sucking sewing. It's different somehow. Regardless, it's over, and I'm piecing a couple of quilts to cleanse my pallet.


The girls bedecked in new costumes.

Everyone dancing the Circle Reel.

  2. Me and Lucy liked watching your girls dance! And from our point of view, the costumes could have been way uglier. Besides, Annika and Sofia are so cute, they even make sweat pants cute. Hope you had a better dinner than last year, too.
