Brendan and I have so many things to be thankful for: each other, our families, our jobs, and our beautiful house to name a few. This year we celebrated thanksgiving at home as a couple. It was wonderful.

Is it too early to start thinking about Christmas? I didn’t think so. That’s why I ordered tickets to see The Nutcracker at the Woodstock Opera House!

I can hardly wait!

My little niece had her first birthday on July 3rd. Aeris looked so precious in her outfit.

Fourth of July weekend was spent with my family in Ohio thanks to my darling husband!

Bunting is all over the sewing/crafting blog-world, and I’ve always liked it, I just didn’t know how I wanted to incorporate it in my house. I LOVE seasonal fabric, but never know what to do with it. Duh! How about seasonal bunting for all of my decorating needs?!

I did some sewing for my dear Dad Knapp. He likes to sit in his easy chair with a large Coke and watch sports. Therefore, I sewed up a set of coasters that feature four popular athletic balls (football, soccer, baseball, and basketball) on one side and gray with scarlet “writing” on the other. The scarlet and gray coordinate with the living room and, more importantly, they are the colors for Ohio State University.


Memorial day evening found the Sullivans outside flying kites in the back yard.

He is risen!
To celebrate Easter, I sewed up some massive Peeps (pattern courtesy of Dandelions and Lace). Aren’t they cute?
Duke is my parent’s GSP (German Shorthair Pointer). If you don’t know him, he’s a pretty awesome dog. They got him as from a GSP Rescue a few years ago and he’s estimated to be about 5 years old now. He loves presents… actually more-so the wrapping paper. I can’t tell how many tiny pieces of paper we had to pick up off the floor after Christmas morning due to his energetic destruction of anything crinkly.
I like napping with him in front of the fireplace, though my back doesn’t agree with the hardwood floor. Then again Duke apparently doesn’t approve of my snoring…
Aunt Paula gave Lee a gingerbread house for Christmas. He let me help him decorate.
