Smorgasbord

No, I didn't know had to spell that and looked it up. Thank you Google!
Here's some pictures I finally uploaded from my phone:
Back when I was in high school I used to stay with my sisters family for a month, or so, in the summer. One year we decided to dye (temporarily) my hair hot pink, dress me in all black (including VERY dark makeup) and give me fake tattoos before I jumped on the plane to come home.
Let's just say it didn't go over well. If my dad had been alone picking me up at the airport, I would've been left there.
So, my niece and nephews have heard this story over and over. 2 of them have wanted to do something equally as drastic. This is what happens when you leave your kid with Aunt Juli for a few days:

The best part was when we had to go through Walmart with his hair like this and everyone thought he was my kid. Ah, the fun times I have with my family!!!

I've had a creative bug lately and made this dress for Nichole's 2 year old daughter:


And this one is for a co-worker's daughter:

And last, but not least, a few weeks ago our YW went on a "Virtue Hike" for mutual. Really it wasn't a hike, more of a brisk walk with little stops on the way. We learned about virtue and the blessings it brings to our lives. At the end we all signed a banner pledging to "Return to Virtue". Sorry for the low quality of the pictures, it was just after sunset.

We love the dress by the way. Lilly looks absolutely adorable in it. I've tried to take a picture but she wont stay still long enough.

You're really talented Julianna. I am very impressed with your children's clothes and sad I don't live closer so you could teach me.
